ANNUAL MUNSON ANTIQUE & CLASSIC CAR SHOW SPONSORED BY STEET PONTE LINCOLN!

There’s no better way to start a new school year than feeling prepared and ready to take on what’s ahead! For the 3rd Annual Steet Ponte Auto Group School Supplies & Backpack Drive, our team joined together with our fellow Steet Ponte stores to donate 576 backpacks filled with essential school supplies to local students. Each backpack was filled with classroom essentials, including folders, crayons, glue sticks, scissors, pencils and more. We hope these supplies help students feel confident walking through the doors on their first day and give them the tools they need for a successful year. Steet Ponte Ford & Lincoln, along with the other Steet Ponte stores on Commercial Drive, was proud to donate to the Utica City School District. We’re honored to support the students in our community and proud to continue an annual tradition that makes a difference. To every student heading back to school: believe in yourself, work hard and have an incredible year!

The Steet Ponte Auto Group team traded in the showroom floors for the ski slopes on Sunday, March 1st, as employees from across all of our dealerships gathered for our 6th Annual Company Ski & Snowboard Trip at beautiful Gore Mountain in North Creek, NY. This annual tradition has become a favorite event for our team, giving everyone the chance to step away from the busy winter sales season and enjoy a day outdoors together. Employees spent the day skiing and snowboarding across the mountain, taking in the incredible views and enjoying some of the best conditions of the season. After a winter filled with epic snowfall, the trails at Gore Mountain were in fantastic shape. Combined with the spring-like weather and sunshine, it made for a perfect day on the mountain. Whether team members were seasoned skiers or just getting comfortable on the slopes, everyone had a great time enjoying the fresh air and the beautiful Adirondack scenery. Midday, the group gathered for lunch at The Tannery Restaurant, where everyone warmed up, shared stories from the slopes, and enjoyed a relaxing break before heading back out for more skiing in the afternoon. Events like our annual ski trip are a great reminder of how special the Steet Ponte Auto Group team truly is. We’re proud to create opportunities for our employees from all eight stores to connect, build friendships, and make memories outside of work. A huge thank you to everyone who joined us this year and helped make the day so much fun. We’re grateful to be able to host this tradition and are already looking forward to hitting the slopes again next year for our 7th Annual Company Ski Trip! 🎿❄️

As part of our continued sponsorship with the Utica Comets, we’re proud to offer two “Kids Night Out” games each season—special nights dedicated to our employees and their families. After a great first event back in November, we were excited to host our second Family Night on January 25th, when the Comets took on the Syracuse Crunch—and it did not disappoint. These nights are all about creating memorable experiences for our Auto Group families. Employees and their kids enjoyed tickets to the game, the unforgettable thrill of participating in the High Five Tunnel as players were announced onto the ice, and an exciting ride on the Zamboni. From puck drop to the final buzzer, the arena was filled with smiles, cheers, and plenty of Comets pride. We’re so grateful to be able to provide opportunities like this for our team and their families. Nights like these remind us that our Auto Group is more than just where we work—it’s a community. We’re already looking forward to the next Kids Night Out and continuing to make memories together at the Adirondack Bank Center. 🏒💙
