Suprise Squad at Brookings Elementry

/

It was a beautiful September day in Springfield and the sun was shining outside Brookings Elementary School when dozens of students, teachers, and community members were waiting to surprise the real sunshine, who was behind a set of doors.

With a nickname to match his positive energy and infectious smile, John Morgan can brighten any room, but in this case the field outside the Brookings School.

“He’s just a fantastic guy and does so much not only for school, but for church, for community,” said Sabrena Brantley.

You could feel the energy of how much all these kids love John, which makes it even more special!

On October 19th, we were honored to go to the 2023 Reader Raves Awards dinner at the Log Cabin in Holyoke! Our team came to accept not one…but 4 awards! Congratulations to all the other winners, there were SO many and I’m glad we could be a part of it.

We won Best Auto Body Shop, Best Collision Center, Best Family-Owned Business, AND Best Charity.

I had so much fun with the whole team from all departments and cannot wait to see what we win next year!

Hyundai Hope on Wheels 2022

/

All of September, we were so proud to participate in Hyundai Hope on Wheels to support the families, researchers, doctors and children impacted by childhood cancer. Every year, we raise awareness and additional funds for cancer research to help #EndChildhoodCancer.

For every Hyundai sold, $20 is donated to Dana-Farber, who has had such a big impact on us at TommyCar Auto Group and my family. I’m so proud to support the Hyundai association with this campaign every year and I am excited to see it continue to grow.

Here’s to fighting childhood cancer!

Suprise Squad at Central High School

/

We love to recognize those who go above and beyond to serve their community. For October’s edition of Surprise Squad: Cool Schools, we are celebrating an educator who is also the “team mom” of the Springfield Central High School Golden Eagles football team. Ms. Tammy Jones teaches math at the school, but she also is the “team mom” of their nationally ranked team.

“She runs the booster club. She runs our concession stands. She does everything,” said Springfield Central High School head football coach William Watson.

Tammy was truly so surprised and thankful for everything we gave her. Seeing surprises like that just make it even more special!
