PRESS RELEASE

CROWN CAR CARE AND CROWN COLLISION CELEBRATE

STUART AIR SHOW SILVER ANNIVERSARY

Donation of Car to a Veteran a Highlight of the Weekend

         Crown Car Care and Crown Collision brought their best talents and patriotic spirit to the 25^th Anniversary celebration of the Stuart Air Show on November 1 and 2 at Witham Field in Stuart.  Todd Harris, owner, has participated in the show for the last five years and was excited to be a sponsor and have a 20’ x 20’ tent open to the public and bustling with activity.

         For the third year, Harris and his team, including John Cecere, the new general manager of Crown Collision, donated a “new” vehicle to a deserving Martin County veteran, a refurbished silver 1999 Crown Victoria. The car was awarded on Saturday, following the WWII battle re-enactment presented by the Road to Victory Military Museum. This year’s winner was 25 year-old Charles Moon who served five years in the Army including 15 months in Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan where he saw combat action and was injured by an IED. Fortunately, he was able to complete his tour of duty and was honorably discharged. Charles has been coming to the Stuart Air Show for years and this past week was working security at the air show.          He attended Martin County schools and was a member of AJROTC for four years. After high school he enlisted in the US Army and did basic training and advanced training in the field of Military Police at Camp Leonard Wood.

         After Army duty, he returned to his hometown of Stuart. Charles has successfully completed EMT school and Police Academy at Indian River State College (IRSC, Stuart and Ft. Pierce, FL) and is now full time student at IRSC pursuing a degree in Criminal Justice.  He is the son of Kathy and Michael Moon of Stuart.

         The Wheels to Warrior Program has become a tradition at the air show and is presented in association with the Road to Victory Military Museum in Memorial Park in Stuart. Todd Harris serves on the board of directors of the organization.

         A selection committee reviewed eligible veterans who live in Martin County to make their selection.  Todd stated, “ It’s our way of giving a real helping hand to a veteran right here. Transportation is essential to getting a job and getting your life on track and we are proud to be able to do this again this year,” Todd stated.          Mike Fiorenza, also of Crown Car Care, donated the 1999 Crown Victoria. Other sponsors included Car Pro Auto Spa, Romar Auto Headliners, Tami Karol Insurance, Keystone Automotive, NAPA Auto Supply of Stuart, Robert & Connie Harris, St. Lucie Battery and Tire and Diana Werdebaugh.
