Maritime Chevy is a proud sponsor of the Bridgeport Sound Tigers! So another season has come to an end of the “Chuck-A-Puck” contest. During the second intermission fans had the opportunity to purchase a puck and toss it into the Chevrolet Silverado as it circled the ice. Over the last year, the Chuck-A-Puck event was able to raise over $15,000 for local charities and organizations. “Working with the Sound Tigers was a great opportunity and we are looking forward to next season”, says Eric Sandstrom, Co-Owner/Operator of Maritime Chevrolet.

Maritime Chevrolet would like recognize John Leslie and the Parts Department for assisting the Fairfield Police Department with a sting to catch a group of thieves. Earlier this month we received a call asking to purchase a bumper and a headlight that was priced at about $1,300, using a stolen credit card. The Parts Department immediately cancelled the order and worked with the Police Department when they realized it was a fraudulent purchase. Two days later, 2 men pulled up to the store in a Uhaul looking to pick up the bumper and headlight that was previously ordered. At this point, Maritime called the Fairfield Police Department to notify them that a man had come in. 3 police officers came to the store and arrested both men. Later on that day, the original man who called to order the parts called back to see if his guys had come to pick up the order. Maritime notified the police department that a 3rd man had been involved. When speaking to one of the Maritime employees that helped with the case, he stated that this situation had really hit close to home because just a couple months prior he had been scammed out of $800. He was excited to take a risk and assist in catching the bad guy.

Don’t miss your chance to take a picture with Devon Toews & Mascot Storm!

For the employees at Maritime Chevy, going to a Sound Tigers game usually means a fun night out with our friends and family, cheering on one of our favorite teams in a show of solidarity, and enjoying some fast-paced hard-hitting action on the ice.

That’s why when we had the opportunity to bring the Bridgeport Sound Tiger’s Devon Toews to Maritime Chevy, everyone at the dealership collectively broke out into song and dance. After all, it’s not everyday you get to meet a literal All-Star.

Just last year, Toews was named to the AHL’s All-Star Classic and won the fastest skater competition in the event’s skills competition. As if that wasn’t impressive enough, in his first professional season, Toews lead the Sound Tigers with 18 assists and ranked second on the club with 22 points in 32 games. He also tied for third among all AHL rookies in helpers and tied for eighth among league defensemen in points.

In short, you’re not going to want to miss this! Bring the entire family and please join us on Saturday, March 31st from 12:00pm – 1:00pm as Mascot Storm and All-Star Defensemen Devon Toews from the Bridgeport Sound Tigers make a major meet and greet appearance at Maritime Chevy!

We’ll see you there!

Thank you to everyone who was involved in the Little Black Dog Rescue Event!

Last month Maritime Chevy partnered with Little Black Dog Rescue in an effort to help puppies in the area find a forever home. Little Black Dog Rescue is a non-profit organization that focuses on the rescue, care, and placement of black dogs who are in danger of euthanasia, as well as other dogs who are in immediate need.

We are happy to report that our showroom was filled with dog loves from all over looking to make a difference in the life of a local pup. We can even say that some of the dogs found their forever home that day!

Thank you to everyone who showed up and especially to those who adopted. When you adopt a dog from a rescue, you’re not only saving the life of a dog, you’re also not supporting puppy mills. Puppy mills are factory-style breeding facilities that put profit above the welfare of dogs. Animals from puppy mills are often housed in shockingly poor conditions with improper medical care, and are often very sick because of it.

If you weren’t able to make it out, it’s still not too late to make a difference and support this amazing organization. Please go to http://www.littleblackdogrescue.org for more information about adopting a dog or to make a donation. You can also find out about other events like this one by going to Facebook.com/MaritimeChevy and clicking on the Like button.

We are fortunate to have had the opportunity to help LBD’s important cause and we look forward to partnering with them again in the near future.

We all want to spend less, save more, and use the new year to shape up our finances. Is your New Year’s resolution going to be to save more money? Breaking bad habits and increasing your financial security is an admirable resolution – but it can be hard! Check out a couple of our Money Saving Challenges that may work for you!

Weather Wednesday: Look to see what the highest recorded temperature is every Wednesday. Then challenge yourself to deposit that dollar amount into your savings each week! This obviously would be more challenging in the Summer months. But it’s still a fun twist on a basic challenge to keep it fresh and exciting! 52-week Money Challenge: While we all recognize the importance of saving money, it can be hard to fit it in when your budget is already stretched thin. Consider trying the 52-Week Money Challenge. There are no complicated rules to remember. Week 1, you save $1.00. Week 2 you save $2.00, and it continues through the year, adding one more dollar to each week’s savings goal. By Week 52, you’ll set aside $52.00, which will bring the year’s total savings to $1,378.
