At Valley Truck Parts, we believe in showing our appreciation for our hardworking team. Each year, we host an employee outing as a small token of our gratitude. This year, our employees voted, and bowling came out on top as the preferred activity! We organized four separate outings to ensure everyone had the chance to participate. Each outing included a half day of paid time off, allowing our team to enjoy a fun activity, a delicious lunch, and the opportunity to meet new and familiar faces in a relaxed, team-oriented setting. A big thank you to Spectrum Entertainment Complex for the wonderful hospitality! We had a fantastic time and are already looking forward to next year’s outing. Thank you to all our employees for making this event a success!

Last Friday, Valley hosted our 20+ Year Dinner at Boatwerks in Holland. It was a beautiful evening, complete with a stunning sunset over the water. We had the honor of celebrating Casey DeKlein 20 years of service with Valley, along with all our other employees who have reached this incredible milestone. Their significant others also joined us, and we shared lots of good conversations, laughs, and memories. This year, we are proud to have 21 employees with 20 or more years of service, including two remarkable individuals who have each dedicated 46 years to Valley. We are immensely grateful for all our employees and their families for their unwavering support throughout the years. As a token of our appreciation, all employees were gifted a Solo Stove. Thank you for being a part of our journey!

Last night, Valley Employees and their families gathered for the Atonne Group, Inc. Family Fun Run/Walk 5K. The event featured a taco bar, an ice-cream truck, and prizes, all in support of the Mental Health Foundation of West Michigan. It was a perfect evening to get active, raise awareness, and connect with our sister companies, their team members, and families. The weather couldn’t have been better! A big thank you to everyone who participated. Special thanks to our guests from Trinity Health and our wellness partners from The McCahill Group for bringing the games. We’re already looking forward to next year’s event!

Each year, we host a charity extravaganza event that brings our Atonne family together for a great cause. Here’s what makes our event special: ? Purposeful Fundraising: Every Atonne company selects a charity of choice—a cause close to their hearts, raising funds to make a difference. Whether it’s mental health, education, or environmental conservation, our collective efforts matter. ? Healthy Competition: The company with the largest participation by group size and the one that raises the most funds by group size will earn an additional generous donation from Atonne. It’s not just about winning; it’s about amplifying our impact. ? Mental Health Matters: Valley Truck Parts chosen charity this year is the Mental Health Foundation of West Michigan—which is doing vital work. They promote mental health awareness and increase behaviors that prevent suicide through education. With knowledge comes the confidence to take action. Learn more at www.benice.org/about. We kicked off the event with Floats for a Cause, where employees donated what they wanted for a root beer float. We then ramped it up with a Vacation to Paradise raffle event, where employees had the chance to win 3 days of extra PTO. And we ended with a splash, quite literally, with a dunk tank! It was a truly fun experience with all! In total, we raised a significant amount, and Valley is graciously matching this amount for a grand total that doubles our efforts! We will end the celebration with a 5K Walk/Run event involving all Atonne Group, Inc. companies, which we are looking forward to this week!

Celebrating 70 Years! A heartfelt thank you to all our customers, employees, vendors, and family members for joining us in celebrating this incredible milestone. The weather was perfect, the food was delicious, and the conversations were truly enjoyable. Here’s to many more events and memories to come! Cheers!

Tomorrow is our Customer Appreciation Day! Join us from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM for lots of food, fun, and raffle prizes! A big thank you to our generous vendors who will be onsite, supporting us and sharing in the celebration. We hope to see you all there!
