Hutten Hospitality

Forty years is a major milestone for any business, and what better way is there to celebrate that achievement than a day of food, fun and cool cars at CSN Hutten’s upcoming charity car show in Fergus.

With all proceeds going to the Make a Wish Foundation, the folks over at CSN Hutten are hoping to draw a crowd for its car show and open house event, currently set for mid-June. As they take in the sights of some of their community’s flashiest rides, guests can enjoy specialty coffee from the Java Bean truck, as well as deluxe hot dogs served by Evelyn in Elora. To make the day a true family affair, the shop will have a pit stop challenge game and “Cars” themed bouncy castle to keep the kids entertained all day.

CSN Hutten’s partners at AkzoNobel will be on-site to support the day’s activities, however, additional sponsorship opportunities are still available on the event website at the cost of $500.

The team at CSN Hutten is hoping to hit a donation goal of $7,500 leading up to the event, which is on the calendar for June 17, from 11 a.m to 2 p.m. EST.

Electric Quebec

Quebec is committing more than $7 million to a heavy-duty electric vehicle maintenance program, according to an announcement from the Ministry of Employment and Social Solidarity (MESS).

The 196-hour program aims to provide a recognized certification in electric and hybrid vehicle maintenance and repair. According to a press release, a total of 240 heavy-duty electric and hybrid vehicle mechanics and repairers—in addition to 20 master trainers—will be trained to acquire future skills to “play a role in Quebec’s transition to a green economy.”

The announcement was made during Minister Kateri Champagne Jourdain’s tour of Quebec, where he is addressing employment challenges across the country. Champagne Jourdain is responsible for for the Centre-du-Québec region and MNA for Johnson.
