It was a glorious celebration and we thank everyone that has purchased a vehicle from us or serviced a vehicle at Baker in the past 25 years, making this day possible.

“Time flies,” said President and CEO Tommy Baker. “This day would not have been possible without our wonderful employees, loyal customers and this incredible community,” he said from the stage.
