May 2025 - Manager's Minute

Hello Everyone,

We’d like to start by wishing all of you a very Happy Memorial Day! This is a time

to honor and remember those who have made great sacrifices for our country, and

we hope you take a moment to reflect on the significance of the day.

On a personal note, Ted and Renee are beyond excited to celebrate as Brayden and

Kaylee prepare to graduate from high school! It’s a big milestone, and we couldn’t

be more proud of their accomplishments.


As we embrace the warmer weather, we’re also making some exciting

improvements here at Chickasaw Garage. If you’ve been to our website lately, you

may have noticed that we’ve made several updates! We’ve been working hard to

enhance our online scheduler and communication system, all with the goal of

serving you, our loyal clients, even better.


Spring is officially here, and it’s the perfect time to start thinking about your

upcoming summer road trips. No matter where you’re headed, it never hurts to

have your vehicle thoroughly inspected to ensure you get there safely. Our vacation

check is the perfect way to prepare for the open road. This 34-point inspection

includes checking everything from filters and brakes to tires, air conditioning, and

even your spare tire.


We want you to enjoy every mile of your journey this summer, and we're here to

make sure your vehicle is road-trip ready!


Thank you for choosing Chickasaw Garage. We look forward to serving you soon.

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.
