Saving the TaTas - One Step at a Time

Recently diva Barb Mullen completed the Susan G Komen 3Day walk to support cancer research in Washington, DC.
 Her daughter Sue Anderson (Impreza owner, in the middle) walked the 60 miles with her and daughter Mandy Emley (Outback owner on the right) rode a bike and helped the walkers at intersections and on the course.

Premier Subaru donated $25 per car sold at the dealership for a total of $1725 to the cause!

"It was a life changing experience," Barb said. "There's comraderie, joyful successful treatment stories, remembrance of fallen soldiers, hugs - many hugs, and of course lots of pink!"

Not to mention men in TuTus. There's two brothers who are renowned in the 3Day community known as The TuTu Brothers who crew with Mandy on their bikes.

Above is a team photo - the gals were on a wonderful team called For 3 Sisters walking in support of a Maryland fireman who lost three sisters to breast cancer in two years.

 

More later - many good things to tell about!

Talk about the weather

We think this video and all the Pete Mertz videos are hilarious so we wanted to share them with all the Subie Divas!

We also wanted to mention that we think it's fabulous to have the BEST weatherman as our spokesman. We'd love to hear Geoff Fox's opinion of this guy!

Check out this video and then go here to the Premier Subaru World's Worst Weatherman page to enjoy more videos and see how symmetrical all wheel drive works. (You know if you have a Subaru that it's true, you don't have to worry about weather with symmetrical all wheel drive.)

Wrong Map- the World's Worst Weatherman
Subaru of America 4/25/2011
Pete describes the temperatures around the country. The only trouble is he's looking at a map with election results on it, not weather conditions.

2011 Forester

SSSSHHHHHH - don't tell everyone - we have the 2011 Forester here at Premier. And, of course, the first one hitting the roads will be owned by a new Subie Diva! Congratulations Abigail - we're sure you'll get many miles of carefree driving!

Anyone else want to check them out give Barb or Jenn a call at (203) 481-0687.

All things New York

AAhhh - New York - the sights, the sounds, the smells, the people. I was in a New York state of mind yesterday. The day started with dropping Max off at doggie day care, followed by a dash for the train station in New Haven-they need more parking!

A Mom and her two children shared seating with me- they're from North Carolina and have relatives up here. They were enroute to New York to celebrate ten year old Evan's birthday. In the course of conversation we found out they have a 2010 Outback which they love- small world!

I shared my laminated map of NY to help keep them busy- challenged them to find the Empire State Building and the train station on it. We finally reached the long awaited tunnel and said our good byes.

Next up was a nice long walk to the Javits Center - after a few wrong turns I got on the right track and arrived sweaty and thirsty. Inside I made a beeline for the Subaru display and there they were- the new STis and WRXs. The wing is back on the sedan version and the five door is still available. Choices for everyone! Can't wait to go cruising in one.

Also in the NY theme - looking forward to getting a copy of Barbara Hannah Grufferman's book "The Best of Everything after 50. The Experts Guide to Style, Sex, Health, Money, and More." She consulted NY experts when faced with turning 50, wrote the book, and was recently on the Today Show sporting a red dress to show support of women's heart health.

And then after the train ride home it was off to band practice where playing Neil Diamond's "Sweet Caroline" reminded me that Yankees-Red Sox baseball was on. By the time I was home plopped in front of the TV it was 1-1 in the ninth.

And in case you don't follow baseball - it was a New York night!

Spring!

Hi all - This Diva spent a wonderful weekend in the greenhoue at Van Wilgen's Garden Center - as part of their "Escape to Spring" event. We showed off our cars, greeted many of our customers, and basked in the sunlight. Everyone loved that warm spring feeling after the crazy winter.

Diva Angie arrived with Jeff and their pooch Sasha on Sunday. Sasha worked on her socializing skills and did quite well accepting friendly pats without cowering too much. Jeff also met many of his customers and we agreed that we'll go back next year.

VanWilgens has the hardiest plants and the most helpful staff - they always can help you find what you need. Check them out here http://www.vanwilgens.com/.

Enjoy the spring!
