Exciting newsfrom Gibson’s Garage!
You may have heard the buzz - but now it’s official. Gibson’s Garage has been sold and as of December 13th we will be dropping the big overhead door for the last time.
We took a leap of faith ten years ago that, thanks to my loyal clientele, turned out to be an excellent decision. But now, I’m packing up my office, hanging up the phone and heading for the hills - the hills of North Frontenac anyway. It’s time to fully enjoy everything this beautiful area has to offer. Plus, I have five fabulous grand-daughters who’d love more hugs and cookies from Grammy Bev.
As I retire from the automotive repair business, Rick will also close his small engine repair shop at the Sharbot Lake site. Stay tuned for news on Rick’s new small engine shop. In the meantime, we will forever appreciate the community’s loyal support of Gibson’s Garage.
Over the years we have developed strong working relationships with our suppliers and local businesses. In particular, I’d like to thank Benson Auto Parts. Always with a friendly voice on the other end of the phone, Benson’s became an integral part of our success. Prompt and efficient, they never let us down.
We would not have been able to do any of this without our stellar staff. Our lead mechanic, Muril, has been with us from day one. Muril not only knows cars and trucks, he knows people and would always take the time to explain the mechanics of the job to his clients. Don’t worry! Muril will stay on under new management and continue to provide quality repairs on your cars and trucks.
Many local faces have come and gone through our Co-op and apprenticeship programs, each bringing their own unique talent to the work room. Thank you, Greg, Lukas, Austin and Braeden. Your contribution to our success was not insignificant.
As of January 4th, Zachary Woodcock will reopen the garage door. New name, same phone number 613-279-2727.
We wish Zach the best with his new adventure, and we are confident he will enjoy enthusiastic and loyal support from the Sharbot Lake extended community
Thank you all
Beverley
