Just pull in, relax, and let the tunnel handle the road grime, dust, and summer bug splatter that builds up fast this time of year. Whether you're commuting through South Bend or heading over from Notre Dame, our express car wash gets you back on the road in minutes.

More of a careful-clean kind of driver? Our touchless car wash is a solid option for keeping your finish protected. And if you wash often, our membership car wash plans make it easy to keep your ride spotless all month long.

Stop by this week and let the tunnel do its thing. Your car will thank you. 🫧🚙

Thank you to all the dedicated people teaching our kids! Congratulations Annette

Can you find U93’s “Who’s Cool At Your School” winner? 🤣 Madison Elementary couldn’t have been more excited for Annette Wisler, a Teacher’s Aide, and all around wonderful asset to this Wakarusa school. We’ve never had more nominations for one person for “Who’s Cool At Your School”! They even made sticks with a cut out of Annette’s face to celebrate her. 🥰 It was a privilege to celebrate Annette with goodies from local businesses like Hall’s Kitchen, The Botany Shop, Monteith’s Best-One Tire & Auto Care, Gentle Wave Car Wash and All Things Snacks! Bayless even included a copy of his book Puggle Snuggle. Congrats Annette, and thank you for all that you do for kids in our community!
