City Chevrolet Supports Local Youth Baseball

Rick Hendrick's City Chevrolet Goes to Bat for Porter Ridge Athletic Association and Matthews Athletic Recreation Association. City Chevrolet sponsors Porter Ridge Athletic Association and Matthews Athletic Recreation Association with equipment, clinics and helps raise thousands of dollars with a Chevrolet giveaway.

PRESS RELEASE: Giving something back to the Charlotte community, Rick Hendrick's City Chevrolet announced today (Friday, April 17, 2009) that they are partnering with Porter Ridge Athletic Association and Matthews Athletic Recreation Association to provide the players and coaches with equipment, instructional clinics and a chance to raise $10,000 in funds for the 2009 season. The program demonstrates Chevrolet and the Chevrolet dealerships as America's brand by bringing together America's favorite pastime and America's favorite car company.

To support youth baseball in its local community, City Chevrolet will provide Porter Ridge Athletic Association and Matthews Athletic Recreation Association with equipment bags, ball buckets, coaches' dry-erase clipboards and t-shirts. Also, thanks to the dealership and other participating area Chevrolet dealers, league members will have a chance to attend a Chevy Youth Baseball Instructional Clinic taught by professionals provided by the Ripken Baseball group.

Offering additional support to the community, Porter Ridge Athletic Association and Matthews Athletic Recreation Association will have the opportunity to raise as much as $10,000 through the Chevy-Vehicle Raffle where a new Chevy Malibu and Chevy Traverse, along with autographed Cal Ripken, Jr. memorabilia, will be given away. City Chevrolet and other area Chevrolet dealerships are donating the two cars to be raffled off. All proceeds from the raffle go to the participating leagues and communities.

"Chevy and Baseball. It's a great combination of America's brand and America's game," says Melissa McCullough of Rick Hendrick's City Chevrolet. "What better way to help our kids than by donating equipment, providing professional instruction, and giving away memorabilia signed by one of the greats, Cal Ripken, Jr. We are excited to be part of the effort this year and to support the youth and families in our community. We definitely anticipate a fun-filled baseball season with Porter Ridge Athletic Association and Matthews Athletic Recreation Association."

2008 marked a great year for Chevrolet and its dealership's local communities. Last year in the Southeast alone, 437 Chevrolet dealerships helped out more than 477 local communities and their baseball programs by raising over $3.5 million. For more information about Chevy Youth Baseball, visit www.ChevyYouthSports.com.

All Cameras On Rick Hendrick's Camaro!

Mr. Hendrick...Say "CHEESE!" What an exciting day it was at the Oshawa, Ontario General Motors assembly plant on Monday, March 16, 2009. Owner of the largest privately-held automobile organization and Hendrick Motorsports, Rick Hendrick brought a team of roughly 17 of his top dealers from Charlotte, NC to commemorate the first official day of production for the all-new 2010 Chevy Camaro. The Camaro was discontinued from the Chevrolet line-up back in 2002 and has become one of the most highly-anticipated new-car launches in automotive history.
General Motors has already pre-sold 14,000 of the new Camaros. However, Rick Hendrick paid a pretty penny to be able to get the 1st Camaro off the production line...$350,000! This was done earlier in 2009 at the Barrett-Jackson Collector Car Event which guaranteed Mr. Hendrick the 2010 Camaro with a VIN that ended in 0001. All of the proceeds from this sale went to the American Heart Association. Chevrolet had also agreed to sell him VIN 0002, which onlookers were pleased to capture on their cameras, as well.
VIN 0001 was a loaded Black Camaro SS with the optional Inferno Orange leather interior. VIN 0002 was a Silver Ice Metallic Camaro SS with Black leather interior. Rick Hendrick is truly a motivational speaker and he rejuvenated the General Motors' factory employees by saying, "I want to tell you loud and clear that these products that you are building today are the best I've ever seen in the 33 years I've been a dealer. We needed the rebirth of the Camaro." He then proceeded to sign t-shirts and memorabilia for the factory employees, as many proved to be avid NASCAR fans.
Amongst the team of top dealers that Rick Hendrick had accompany him to this monumental occasion, was City Chevrolet's very own General Manager and Executive Vice President, Jerry Ferrell. Jerry was so excited upon his return and shared the day's events with any employee who asked and was proud to show his photos of this once-in-a-lifetime event.
If you would like to order your very own 2010 Camaro, visit http://www.citychevrolet.com/ and click on the Camaro on the homepage. Or, call our Camaro Enthusiasts at 1-866-409-3466 to claim yours! To leave you with a word from Mr. Hendrick: "You build 'em and we'll sell 'em."

We love customer comments! So thank you to everyone who took a moment to let us know what you thought about your recent experience with your favorite City Chevrolet employees!

I considered Lexus and after the experience at City, I purchased a Corvette."--Mr. Bisbee "This was the fastest and easiest purchase of a vehicle ever! Everything went so smoothly, from being greeted at the door, to being welcomed by the manager, introducting us to the salesman Adrian Drayton who was very knowledgeable, moving right along to the financial man, to driving out in a new vehicle in about 2 1/2 hours. I have recommended City to others. Thank you for your excellent service."--Ms. Bade "This is the first time with City Chevrolet and I will come back again. I liked the experience with City and Nathan Nejberger."--Ms. Sellers "Top class organization! We were impressed with everyone at City Chevrolet. Patricia Tate was knowledgeable, professional, and customer-oriented. Great experience from when we walked in the door to when we drove out in our new Corvette. Thanks to all!"--Mr. Smith "Joey Black was great and I would highly recommend him to anyone I knew wanting to buy a car."--Ms. Allen "Patricia Tate was great and delivered my vehicle to me.
