Seymour Lions to host summer cruise night Thursday in Ansonia

 ANSONIA - This show will be fun for the whole family. 

We take pride in the part we play bringing car enthusiasts together to celebrate a time when the automobile was more than just an appliance. We invite all hot rods, street rods, rat rods, classic, custom, trucks, motorcycles, and antiques to join us.
As local car aficionados showcase their vintage, classic, and custom cars, trucks and motorcycles and all the work they have done on them, there are opportunities to network and uncover new ideas for enthusiasts.
Trophies will be awarded for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd place car/truck winners. A motorcycle trophy also will be awarded. 

Our sponsors pick the winners! Music, raffles, and socializing make for a fun night!

DERBY - AAA Northeast recently presented Griffin Hospital’s Safe Kids Greater Naugatuck Valley Coalition with a $2,500 donation as part of its ongoing charitable giving efforts throughout its territory of New Haven, Litchfield, and Fairfield Counties.

The donation will be used to purchase child passenger safety seats for parents in the community, and for pedestrian and road safety injury prevention education programs.

AAA has now donated $10,000 to Safe Kids over the past four years.

The donation is through the AAA Employee Charitable Giving Foundation which awards gifts to nonprofit agencies in the Connecticut and Rhode Island area each year that go above and beyond to help their community. 

Special attention is given to those underserved areas and children.

The Coalition was chosen for its work in providing needed child car and booster seat for underserved populations in the area. 

Safe Kids also conducts monthly clinics at Griffin to educate parents on the proper installation of car seats and when necessary, provides free car seats to qualified recipients.

This is a press release from Griffin Hospital.
