GRAFF OF DURAND presented AYSO Region 814 with a check for $1,000 Saturday, Oct. 14, as the two groups kicked off the collaborative Chevy Youth Soccer Test Drive Fundraiser. AYSO and Graff have partnered through the Chevy Youth Soccer Program, which will provide AYSO with new equipment, instructional opportunities, as well as monetary support. Graff will provide $25 to AYSO on behalf of each customer that visits the dealership and takes a test-drive in any one of the new Chevrolet vehicles in stock. The test drive program will run through Nov. 30, and persons are asked to mention that they are looking to support Region 814 AYSO soccer through the Chevy Youth Soccer test-drive fundraiser program.

Graff General Manager Chip Watt (holding check) and sales rep. Brad Benn were on hand to present the check to AYSO Region 814 President Chris Weaver (directly right of check), and AYSO board members and coaches gathered with players to kick off the event, with each league player receiving complementary shirts and other gifts.
