February 2025 - Manager's Minunte

During February and March we are once again partnering with St. Jude and Repair Shop of Tomorrow to help raise money for St. Jude Children Hospital! With this program you can receive FREE brake pads or shoes with ANY brake repair and 10% of the brake repair costs are donated to St. Jude Children Research Hospital! It is such an amazing opportunity to give back, so if you have been putting off some brake work now is the time to have those repairs done. Not only are you receiving free brake pads, but you are also supporting a great cause that changes the lives of so many. Be sure to give the girls in the office a call, sooner rather than later, to schedule an appointment so you don’t miss out on this amazing deal! 

Jack is celebrating his 21st birthday this month, so if you are stopping by the shop feel free to wish him a very Happy Birthday! We are so grateful for all he does around the shop and it has been fantastic having him as a full time employee now that he is finished with school. I cannot wait to see how much he continues to grow as a technician! Happy Birthday Jack!

Thank you all for the continued support and be sure to take advantage of the amazing deal on brakes! Happy Valentine's Day to you all!


Sincerely,

Ted Heitbrink

Hard to believe we’ve flipped the calendar to a brand-new year already! 🎉 As I look back on 2025, I’m filled with a ton of gratitude. To our amazing clients who kept us busy all year long, to the vendors who bailed us out more than once, and to my incredible team and family—you truly kept the wheels turning here at Chickasaw Garage. 🚗🔧 In November, we had one of our best team outings yet. We hit up Shots Taphouse, played some video games (some of us are more “competitive” than others 👀🎮), watched a little football, and then wrapped up the day with some excellent Mexican food. 🌮 Great laughs, great memories, and only a few questionable high scores. On the home front, we ended the year with some exciting family news—Jackson is officially engaged to Hannah Weigel! 💍 Looks like I’ll be welcoming a new member into the family, and I couldn’t be happier. Normally, this time of year I’m talking nonstop about high school bowling, but things look a bit different in 2026. Neither of the boys are bowling on high school or college teams right now… but they are coaching together for the St. Henry Junior High program. 🎳 Watching both of them coach side-by-side makes me one proud dad—even if I still miss yelling “pick up the spare!” from the bleachers. As we kick off 2026, I want to thank every one of you—our customers, vendors, team members, and community—for supporting Chickasaw Garage. Here’s to another year of hard work, good people, full schedules, and hopefully fewer broken bolts. 😉 Happy New Year from Ted Heitbrink and the entire team at Chickasaw Garage! 🎆

As we head into November, we want to take a moment to wish all of our customers, friends, and families a very happy and safe Thanksgiving. This season is always a reminder of how much we have to be thankful for.
