Cool Treats on a Hot Day – Thank You, ACV Auctions!

United Auto Sales Staff Enjoying Ice Cream Day!

Yorkville, NY | United Auto Sales of Utica

It’s been one of the hottest weeks of the summer so far, but our teams at the Yorkville Steet Ponte Auto Group stores got to beat the heat in the best way possible with FREE ice cream delivered by a good old-fashioned ice cream truck!

A huge thank you to our friends at ACV Auto Auctions, who surprised our entire Yorkville dealerships: Steet Ponte Nissan, Steet Toyota of Yorkville, Steet Ponte Mazda, Steet Ponte Ford Lincoln, Steet Ponte Volkswagen, and United Auto Sales of Utica, with an ice cream break that brought smiles all around. From cones to popsicles, it was the perfect treat to cool down, take a breather, and enjoy some summertime fun.

Steet Ponte Auto Group Ski Trip

Steet Ponte Auto Group Hits the Slopes for Our 6th Annual Company Ski & Snowboard Trip!

The Steet Ponte Auto Group team traded in the showroom floors for the ski slopes on Sunday, March 1st, as employees from across all of our dealerships gathered for our 6th Annual Company Ski & Snowboard Trip at beautiful Gore Mountain in North Creek, NY. This annual tradition has become a favorite event for our team, giving everyone the chance to step away from the busy winter sales season and enjoy a day outdoors together. Employees spent the day skiing and snowboarding across the mountain, taking in the incredible views and enjoying some of the best conditions of the season. After a winter filled with epic snowfall, the trails at Gore Mountain were in fantastic shape. Combined with the spring-like weather and sunshine, it made for a perfect day on the mountain. Whether team members were seasoned skiers/snowboarders or just getting comfortable on the slopes, everyone had a great time enjoying the fresh air and the beautiful Adirondack scenery. Midday, the group gathered for lunch at The Tannery Restaurant, where everyone warmed up, shared stories from the slopes, and enjoyed a relaxing break before heading back out for more skiing in the afternoon. Events like our annual ski trip are a great reminder of how special the Steet Ponte Auto Group team truly is. We’re proud to create opportunities for our employees from all eight stores to connect, build friendships, and make memories outside of work. A huge thank you to everyone who joined us this year and helped make the day so much fun. We’re grateful to be able to host this tradition and are already looking forward to hitting the slopes again next year for our 7th Annual Company Ski Trip! 🎿❄️

Steet Ponte Night 1 at the Utica Comets Game

A Night of Hockey, Smiles & Family Fun at Our Second Comets Family Night

As part of our continued sponsorship with the Utica Comets, we’re proud to offer two “Kids Night Out” games each season, special nights dedicated to our employees and their families. After a great first event back in November, we were excited to host our second Family Night on January 25th, when the Comets took on the Syracuse Crunch —and it did not disappoint. These nights are all about creating memorable experiences for our Auto Group families. Employees and their kids enjoyed tickets to the game, the thrill of participating in the High Five Tunnel as players were announced onto the ice, and an exciting ride on the Zamboni. From puck drop to the final buzzer, the arena was filled with smiles, cheers, and plenty of Comets pride. We’re so grateful to be able to provide opportunities like this for our team and their families. Nights like these remind us that our Auto Group is more than just where we work, it’s a community. We’re already looking forward to the next Kids Night Out and continuing to make memories together at the Adirondack Bank Center. 🏒💙
