Mall Week Racap

Our 2015 Mall Event has come and gone, so let’s take a minute to reflect on Aberdeen’s largest automotive event of the year.

For seven days we took over the Lakewood Mall as we moved almost our entire inventory across town. We gave away awesome prizes and grilled for anyone that would eat...but it didn’t happen without the hard work and dedication of many individuals.

As Mall Week has grown, so has the demand and preparation needed to pull it off. I want to take this moment to personally thank everyone that played a role in this year’s event. Everyone from the volunteers that moved vehicles to the kids that manned the hotdog stand, thank you. To my staff that endured long hours and stayed upbeat, thank you. Each and every customer was taken care of. I appreciate your effort and the numbers speak for themselves.

And finally, the customers. Whether you came out looking for a vehicle or simply stopped in to say hi and grab some food, thank you. We put this event on to get out in the community and show our appreciation to our loyal customers.

Speaking of prizes, congratulations again to everyone that won. We gave away many great prizes including details packages, auto starts and gift cards throughout the week on the radio and on Facebook. We also gave away Beats by Dre headphones, iPads, TVs, laptop computers and a stainless steel grill. Here are a few of our winners: Cory, Dave and Brett.

And we can’t talk about Mall Week without talking about our 50¢ hot dogs and $1 burgers. We’re glad everyone enjoyed the great food. We went through nearly 2,000 burgers with all proceeds going to local charity.

We have begun initial discussions about how we can make 2016 an EVEN better event and look forward to raising the bar once again next year.
