UCP Chili Cook-Off

We wrapped up an awesome weekend in St. Joseph at an annual chili cook-off competition to benefit the local United Cerebral Palsy. Contributions came in from customers buying vehicles, from employees, and from individuals at the cook-off. We were able to raise a final amount of over $8,500 (even more than was indicated at the time of this filming).  Awesome work team! Thanks to everyone who gave of their time to make a difference.
