and best practices in the sales process.
The event also featured the fourth annual Larry H. Miller

BOY SCOUTS EARN AUTOMOTIVE BADGE
SERVICE TECHNICIANS VOLUNTEER TIME AND GIVE GUIDANCE
On Saturday, April
11, 2015, LHM Dodge
Ram Avondale held
its
first
monthly
class to help Arizona
Boy Scouts earn
their
Automotive
Maintenance
merit
badges.
Fifteen
enthusiastic
boys
participated in the
inaugural
event,
wearing protective
eyewear and getting their hands dirty, as service technicians
guided them through the Boy Scouts’ 15-page auto repair manual.
LHM Dodge Ram Avondale Service Director Rick Stubbs
spearheaded the clinic and the store’s service technicians
volunteered their time for the
two-hour class, which taught
the boys everything from how
to use an impact wrench to
car care fundamentals. The
Scouts eagerly worked their
way through each task, asking
insightful questions and learning
the necessary skills needed to
pass the upcoming Automotive
Maintenance merit badge test.
“The mission of our company is to enrich lives,” said Rick Stubbs.
“We achieve true success when we positively impact others and
the communities where we live, work and play. We look forward
to providing this opportunity for our local Boy Scouts to learn
automotive maintenance and earn their merit badge.”
Stubbs’ goal is for each
monthly session to host
between 10-15 Boy Scouts,
who are required to be
accompanied by a parent
or guardian. Larry H. Miller
