WAREHOUSE TOUR
THE SOUTHEAST REGIONAL OFFICE gave Subaru enthusiasts a little piece of heaven last spring when it opened the doors of its facilities for an I-Club meeting and warehouse tour. Region associates led tour groups and cited the 143,785-square-foot Atlanta Regional Distribution Center’s capabilities. Visitors managed to find the performance parts they would like to have by parts number on the boxes.
SUBARU OF AMERICA MOTORSPORTS DAY
On Thursday, June 2, 2005 SUBARU MOTORSPORTS DAY gave Subaru associates from Cherry Hill headquarters and the Penn Jersey Regional Office the opportunity to meet their motorsport partners and familiarize themselves with the 2005 motorsports initiatives. Partners in attendance included Vermont SportsCar for rally, ICY/Phoenix for road racing and ESX Motorsports for drag racing.
Associates met drivers and other team members, and some were given rides in a rally
or road-racing
car around a makeshift course set up in
the parking lot at headquarters. Racers found parking-lot barriers to be less forgiving
than obstacles normally encountered on the track.
