Pinewood Derby sponsored by Steve’s Auto Repair

In Boy Scouts, Community Involvement, Pinewood Derby by Steves Auto Repair and Tire

On January 19, we got to sponsor Cub Scout Pack 1189 Pinewood Derby in Montclair!

Held in the Pattie Elementary School gymnasium, the Pinewood Derby had more than 100 entries! It was great to see all the young mechanics racing the cars they had worked so hard on and cheering on their friends.

ST got to start the first race before he and Gabe helped hand out pizza at lunchtime. What a great experience! We look forward to helping out in the future!

Steve’s Auto helps scouts receive handyman activity badge

In Boy Scouts, Community Involvement by Steves Auto Repair and Tire

At the end of November we had the pleasure of helping many of the scouts in Webelos Pack 1189 get their handyman activity badge.

After closing down the shop, we hosted the scouts and their parents for a clinic about basic car maintenance and repair.

Scouts were able to do everything from basic light bulb replacement to checking and topping off oil and helping to put on a spare tire. They all know how to check tire pressure and even got a chance to use an air gun to remove lug nuts!

It was a lot of fun for us to teach a bit and so long as they don’t let all the air out of their parents’ tires we think we can call it a success!
