BOISE, Idaho — Veterans day is Monday, Nov. 11, and to celebrate NAPA, local auto shops are offering free oil changes for veterans and active military personnel. This year, the free oil changes will be available on Friday, Nov. 8, and Monday, Nov. 11, to express appreciation for military members. However, quantities are limited and an appointment is required to receive a free oil change.
According to the press release sent by Tune Tech Fairview, "Military personnel from any branch of the armed forces — including active, retired, disabled, and veterans of foreign wars — and spouses of active military personnel are eligible to receive a free standard lube, oil, and filter service."
This is the 24th year local businesses have come together to donate their time and resources to support the armed forces.
"Veterans Day is a day to remember those who have made our lives and peace possible in this great United States. We decided years ago to begin an event that would honor the depth of sacrifice we have seen in our own family and friends. Through a small act of a free oil change, we are saying thank you to those who have served or are currently serving our country. It is our hope that every veteran in the Treasure Valley will know that this community is filled with gratitude for their sacrifice." stated Treasure Valley NAPA Auto Care Centers
