Milstead signs on as Presenting Sponsor for Walk Like MADD event, Oct 6

Sept. 11, 2012 - PRLog -- In the continuing effort to keeping the Montgomery County community safe, Milstead Automotive has joined MADD as the Presenting Sponsor for the upcoming Walk Like MADD event to be held October 6 at Northshore Park. MADD is an acronym for Mother's Against Drunk Driving.

"We are very committed to getting the word out about anti-distracted and anti-impaired driving," Amy Milstead said, President of Milstead Automotive. "When MADD approached us to be the Presenting Sponsor we knew this was the right event for us and the best possible affiliation."

Walk Like MADD is a 5K non-competitive walk created specifically for corporations and local businesses. Employees support MADD by securing walk pledges from family members, friends, neighbors and colleagues. Walkers and their pledge supporters of the Walk Like MADD event are the key ingredient in securing funds to benefit MADD's lifesaving mission - to stop drunk driving, support victims of this violent crime and prevent underage drinking.

"We are behind the Walk Like MADD event and are also hosting another community event at our shop on September 20," Milstead said. "We hope the community will turn out in a big way for this event since we are going to feature our DA Brett Ligon, our new Constable Ryan Gable, the newly formed Bar Owners Alliance, Carly Winsmann who is our Video Ambassador, as well as Kyle Sherburne of State Farm."

The Milstead Lipsticks & Dipsticks car care clinic, Community Safety, will be held September 20, 7 - 8:30pm, at the Milstead Automotive location at 29707 W Hawthorne at Rayford Road in Spring.
