“Occasions like these are incredibly meaningful to operations like ours,” said Jacob Sobers, general manager of Young Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Riverdale. “They allow us to build relationships outside of the showroom, as well as highlight our awesome facility and inventory. We’re grateful for the welcomes we’ve received since news of the ownership change was announced, and can’t wait to show Riverdale what we add to this area.”

Featuring candy, games and decorated vehicles, families and children of all ages will be invited to collect treats and participate in on-site activities. Several organizations will join the dealership on their lot as well, including iHeartMedia — who will set up a remote broadcast at the facility from 10 a.m. – 12 p.m.

Those interested can either notify the dealership through their contact form or at their location before close of business on Oct. 23.
