AAA NORTHAMPTON COUNTY CONTINUES TO SUPPORT OUR COMMUNITY
Steve Lindemann, President
Summer is finally arriving, and I’ve never been so excited to move on from spring as I am
this year. I hope this
publication finds
you and your family well. While our offices have been closed
for several weeks, our commitment to
our members has not changed. We have
been providing members with Emergency Road Service 24 hours a day. Battery related issues have actually increased because people are not driving as much, which is causing weaker batteries to fail. If you can’t remember how old your battery is, call us and we will send one of our Light Duty Technicians to test your battery for free.
Our membership, travel and insurance staff have been working from home to assist members during these trying times. If you have free time, I would encourage
you to call our insurance staff to obtain an auto or home insurance quote. Now is a great time to save money or improve your coverage.
Our membership, travel and insurance staff have been working from home to assist members during these trying times.
As far as travel, now is also a great time to start planning your next trip. Going forward there should be some great travel deals, which could make traveling much more affordable.
Now, more than ever, it is important to support our local merchants, and remember
that many of them offer AAA members a discount simply by showing your AAA membership card. For a complete list of Discounts and Rewards partners, please go to AAA. com/discounts or download the free AAA app.
At this time, I would like to thank our ERS contractors and light duty technicians who have continued to provide service to our members during these times of uncertainty.
I hope you and your family have a healthy and enjoyable summer.
