Thank you from Special Olympics Truck Convoy Friends,  It has been over a week now since the first-ever World’s Largest Truck Convoy presented by Getloaded in Richmond, and we are continuing to receive positive feedback from the community. As with any of our events, the goal is always to increase awareness and opportunity for our athletes. Thanks to your support, we have done both for our athletes. In only its first year the Convoy raised $12,047 for the athletes of Special Olympics Virginia. Likewise, we have received several calls and emails from individuals and companies who want to support Special Olympics by participating in the future. We are already making plans for next year, and we will be convening a committee before the year’s end to help get the 2012 Truck Convoy off to a solid start. Thank you all again for helping us to build a special event that will only grow more successful in the future. We have put together a short video that does a great job of capturing the excitement of the Convoy. Please enjoy, and thank you again for all the support that you have given to our athletes.

Haley GMC Kicks off the Season with the Gordon Athletic Association Haley GMC sponsors Gordon Athletic Association and helps raise thousands of dollars with a vehicle giveaway Richmond (9/8/2010) – Haley GMC of Richmond is partnering with Gordon Athletic Association to provide the league’s players and coaches with equipment, a monetary donation, and a chance to raise up to $10,000. In support of Richmond’s youth, Haley GMC will provide Gordon Athletic Association with football kits filled with equipment bags, 5-gallon water coolers, dry erase coaches’ clipboards, and t-shirts. Offering additional support to the community, Gordon Athletic Association will have the opportunity to raise as much as $10,000 through a fundraising opportunity where one lucky recipient in the Southeast Region of the country will win a new 2011 GMC Terrain (MSRP not to exceed $29,000). Haley GMC and other Richmond-area Buick-GMC dealerships in the Southeast Region are donating the vehicle to the participating leagues. One second prize winner will be selected from the Richmond-area to win a tailgate package (Approximate Retail Value: $500 each) includes a $350-$400 grill and a $100 gift card for the grocery store of the winner’s choice. One-hundred percent of the proceeds go directly to the participating leagues, and they can use the funds in any way they choose. Some of the leagues have reported they plan to grant scholarships to families who cannot afford to enroll their children in the league, while others have said they will use the funds to improve fields and equipment. “Buick-GMC and youth football. It’s a great combination,” says Barry Moore of Haley GMC. “We are proud to be able to help the kids in our community by donating equipment and giving them the opportunity to raise much needed funds for their league. We are excited to be part of the effort this year, and anticipate a fun-filled season of Gordon Athletic Association football.” About Buick: Buick is a modern brand with premium, high-quality vehicles characterized by sculpted designs, luxurious interiors with personal technologies, and responsive-yet-efficient performance.
