Happy June!? Easterns Automotive Group (Eastern Motors) teamed up with Fox 5 DC once again for another segment of Pay It Forward.? The two came across a young 10-year-old girl from Maryland that is doing some great things in the community by helping to save animals.? Addy Barrett created her own non-profit organization by the name of Gorilla Heroes to help the endangered mountain gorillas in Africa.? She came up with the idea to start a pie-face challenge that will help raise money for this cause.? The initial campaign took off due to Addy?s mom Sarah taking a picture of the poster that Addy created and sharing it on social media.?? In the photo, Addy is holding a poster that says ?Save the Gorillas!?? Addy?s site has since raised over $1,000 due to the impact of the pie-face challenge.? She got the inspiration for the challenge from the ALS Bucket Challenge.? Addy got a pie in her face every time a donation was made or a t-shirt was purchased.? People were eager to support the cause because they can see she is doing something extremely clever and charitable for her age.? While other kids her age are playing on video games or on the computer, Addy is continuing to create awareness about her cause.
Addy?s efforts caught the attention of David Singer, a member of the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund.? Singer praised Addy for her generous efforts and even gave her a keepsake from his trip to Rwanda where he got to see the mountain gorillas.? It?s only the beginning for Addy and her philanthropic ways.? She is set to host a Gorilla Gala on Sunday, June 23rd at A Bit Better Farm in Brookville, Maryland. ?The event is intended to get kids and their families excited about the gorillas and of course learn more.? There will be games, crafts, VR Gorilla Tours, and some pie-face fun.? All proceeds from this event will go directly to The Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund and Ellen Degeneres Wildlife Fund.

Welcome back! We have a special Throwback Thursday Clip of the week for you guys. We must start out this blog by congratulating the Washington Capitals. Alex Ovechkin helped lead the Capitals to their first ever NHL Stanley Cup win last week against the Golden Knights. Ovechkin was also the winner of the Conn Smythe Trophy since he was voted most valuable player (MVP). The energy throughout the DC, Maryland, and Virginia area has been electrifying since the big win. The team celebrated a few days ago with Capitals? Stanley Cup parade on Constitution Avenue in Washington, D.C. where an estimated 100,000 fans attended.
In honor of the big win, we thought it would be only right to post an Ovechkin throwback clip with Easterns Automotive Group (Eastern Motors) for you guys to enjoy. In this clip from 2009, Ovechkin is cornered in by Chris Cooley and Antwaan Randle El in the locker room. Both Cooley and Randle El played for the Washington Redskins at the time. Ovechkin put a helmet on and told the guys that he too could play football. The guys put Ovechkin to the test but clearly he wasn?t fit for the NFL. Perhaps he?ll stick to hockey. Watch the clip below to see for yourself!

June is off to a great start! Last week, Easterns Automotive Group was joined by some players from the Washington Redskins to shoot a new commercial. Eastern Motors commercials at this point are renowned and celebrated across the world. Each year these commercials seem to take on a life of their own and get the people talking. Larry Michael, the Voice of the Redskins, came by to chat with the players about their experience filming with Easterns. He was joined by Josh Norman, Alex Smith, Ryan Kerrigan, and Jamison Crowder. However, this is not Norman?s and Kerrigan?s first rodeo. The two have been a part of the Easterns All Star team since 2016 along with Kirk Cousins before he got traded to the Minnesota Vikings. Smith and Crowder on the other hand are newbies. All of the guys were excited to shoot and had a fun time welcoming Smith to the DC, Maryland, and Virginia area. Let?s just say excited can?t even begin to describe how we feel going into the 2018 Redskins season. These guys are ready to win it all. This upcoming series of commercials just may be the best yet. Stay tuned for what is coming in the next few months. We?ll be bringing you the news first!
