City Side Auto Easter Coloring Contest Recap


This Easter, we had so much fun hosting our Easter Coloring Contest here at City Side Auto. We were truly blown away by the creativity, effort, and joy that each child brought into our shop.


Over the past couple of weeks, families stopped in to pick up coloring pages or printed them at home, then returned their finished artwork to us. We displayed every entry in Dexter’s Art Gallery, and it quickly became one of our favorite parts of the shop. Customers loved stopping to look, smile, and vote for their favorites.


It made our space feel a little more special — exactly what we hoped for.


Contest Winners


After reviewing all of the entries and counting votes, we’re excited to recognize our winners:


Ages 3–6 Winner

Vivian, Age 4


Ages 7–9 Winner

Sebria, Age 9


Ages 10–12 Winner

Nevaeh, Age 10


Each winner received a golden egg filled with fun surprises — a small way for us to celebrate their creativity and hard work.


Thank You!


We are so grateful to every child who participated and every parent who took the time to be part of this with us. Supporting families in our community is something we care deeply about, and moments like this remind us why we do what we do.


Dexter’s Thoughts


Dexter had a great time “helping” judge the artwork (and greeting everyone who came in). He especially enjoyed spotting all the hidden Easter eggs and seeing how creative each piece was.


Take a Look

At City Side Auto, we believe caring for our neighbors goes beyond vehicles. It’s about creating a place where people feel welcome, valued, and connected.

What to check on your vehicle before longer drives, road trips, and warmer weather. As the weather warms up, we start seeing more road trips, longer drives, and weekend getaways. With more time on the road, it’s important to make sure your vehicle is ready for the extra miles.  A quick check now can help prevent unexpected issues and keep your trip running smoothly. Before heading out, here are five key areas to take a look at: Tires Brakes Fluids Battery A/C system Your tires play a major role in safety and handling. Check for proper air pressure and look for uneven or excessive wear, which can affect how your vehicle drives and stops. Your brakes should always feel consistent and responsive. If you’ve noticed any squeaking, grinding, or changes in stopping, it’s a good idea to have them checked before a longer trip. Fluids such as engine oil, coolant, brake fluid, and transmission fluid help keep your vehicle running properly. Low or dirty fluids can lead to overheating or performance issues. Your battery can be affected by both cold and hot weather. If your vehicle has been slow to start or the battery is a few years old, it may be time to have it tested. And finally, your A/C system. Warmer weather means you’ll rely on it more, and it’s best to make sure it’s working properly before you’re on the road. To help our customers get ready for more driving this season, we offer a vehicle check designed to catch potential issues before they become bigger problems. Tire inspection and pressure check Brake system check Fluid level and condition check Battery test A/C performance check Taking a little time to check these areas can make a big difference in how your vehicle performs, especially during longer trips. If you’re planning more driving this season or just want peace of mind, now is a great time to have your vehicle checked. We’re always happy to take a look, explain what we find, and help you decide the best next step. Call City Side Auto to schedule your pre-trip vehicle check.
