Castle McHenry Hosts Their Cars & Cuts Back-to-School Event
As kids start going back to school, we wanted to find a way to help get the kids of the McHenry community everything they need and feel confident going back to the classroom. Our way to help kids in the community was hosting a Cars & Cuts event on August 12th, where we encouraged local students to visit our dealership and receive a brand new backpack with different supplies they will need for the upcoming school year like notebooks, paper, pens, pencils, markers, and glue. On top of all of that, they also were able to receive a free haircut from one of the lovely stylists from Cost Cutters of McHenry to give them that little boost in confidence as they walk through those school doors.
We had an amazing time with all the McHenry families. It was truly heartwarming seeing all that we could provide for the families and help the kids feel ready and confident as they head back to school. We absolutely love seeing all the happy smiles on all their faces as they received their back packs and fresh haircuts.
Castle McHenry’s Involvement
Hosted in our Castle Cadillac McHenry building, we had tables set up for our four stylists from Cost Cutters of McHenry and a table with all the back packs displayed. The entire room was decorated in a back-to-school theme, really emphasizing the whole theme. Right outside the dealership, we also had dirty sodas, lemonade, and shaved ice for free for everyone, provided by Snowie Ice.
Our team had an amazing time engaging with everyone from the community and just overall having fun during our event. There were a lot of great conversations and connections built. All the kids were so happy with their haircuts. So many people from the community and the surrounding areas came in to get a fresh new cut from one of the amazing stylists. All the families could not stop raving about the entire event, especially the haircuts.
Thank You to Our Partners
We would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to our wonderful partners who helped make this event a success. We are so grateful for Gina and her talented team at Cost Cutters of McHenry for providing free haircuts that helped the students feel their best, and to Snowie Ice for keeping everyone refreshed with their delicious drinks and treats. Your generosity and commitment to the McHenry community truly made a difference.
Community Impact and Commitment
Here at Castle McHenry, we believe that the future of this world is the younger generation. That is why we do community events, to give back and help fuel the kids’ future. We want to do everything we can to help the youth flourish in school and feel confident doing so.
We would like to thank our amazing Castle team for being there to set up and make sure everything went smoothly. Without the help and support from our team, we would not be able to do these events. We would also like to thank Cost Cutters and Snowie Ice for coming to our event and making it even more special. We love hosting these community events and we look forward to connecting more with the community.
Thank You McHenry Community
We want to extend a final, heartfelt thank you to the wonderful families of McHenry who joined us for our Cars & Cuts event. It was a privilege for the Castle McHenry team to support your children as they begin their back-to-school journey, and we are so grateful for the opportunity to help them start the year with confidence.
Our team truly valued every connection made and every conversation shared during the day. Building these relationships with our neighbors is at the heart of what we do, and we look forward to continuing to serve and grow with the McHenry community for many years to come.
