Dear Valued Member,

In the April edition of the Community First Insider, I talked about our Spring Car Sale Event, which took place on April 13. As a follow up, I thought it might be nice for you to read about the outcome of the event. I'm delighted to let you know that it was one of our most successful Car Sale Events ever! We hosted eight car dealerships, who brought 347 vehicles to our lot. At the end of the day, our members purchased 156 vehicles, which is our highest number yet! 
 
This semi-annual event is about so much more than loan production or dealership sales. We do it to help members purchase new and used vehicles at great prices and we add in a terrific deal on interest rates. Perhaps most inspiring though, are the amazing stories we hear from members as they shop the lot. As one member was waiting for her paperwork to process, she shared with us that she was there to purchase a car for her daughter in college. Her daughter attends school in Georgia, and our member's plan was to drive the vehicle up to Georgia to surprise her daughter with a new car! Another woman came to our Car Sale Event via taxi cab. She was previously disabled and unable to drive, but finally felt ready to drive again. She knew the exact make and model she wanted, found it at our Car Sale Event, and drove away for the first time in years!
 
From Car Sale

This event allows us to provide essential transportation for members and their families by financing reliable vehicles at a low rate. If you missed our Spring Car Sale Event, don't fret! We will be hosting our Fall Car Sale Event in less than six months from now -- on October 5. Come visit us then! We want you to Love What You Drive, and hope that our Car Sale Events give you even more reasons to Love Where You Bank.
