Honda of Ocala loses in Semi-Final of MAG HHF Basketball Tournament for Charity


On July 15, 2012 the Morgan Auto Group hosted their 5th Annual Charity Basketball Tournament to benefit the Helping Hand Fund (an employee emergency relief fund).

The tournament boasted ten teams from our car stores and affiliated companies: Highway Safety Devices, Brandon Honda, Honda of Ocala, Honda of Gainesville, Wade Raulerson Buick GMC, Ford of Port Richey, Creative Sign Designs, BMW of Sarasota/MINI of Wesley Chapel, Toyota of Tampa Bay and Moore & Scarry Advertising.

Highway Safety Devices overcame a 1st half deficit of 15 points to take the championship, overcoming a very strong Brandon Honda team that had blown past Ford of Port Richey and Honda of Ocala.

Honda of Gainesville fell in the other semi-final game to Highway Safety Devices.

Authorized Free Agent Tanner Boyle was acquired by Ford of Port Richey for a $1000 dollar donation but then sold to Highway Safety Devices (who were playing with only five men) for another $500 dollar donation.

The tournament for the first time was moved from Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church in Clearwater, FL to the Long Center where three games could be played simultaneously. Each team was guaranteed at least two games (win or lose) and many teams (those who had play in games) ended up going 3 games.

Award Winners:

Tournament Winner - Highway Safety Devices

Consolation Bracket Winner - Toyota of Tampa Bay

Philanthropy Award (Money Raised) - Toyota of Tampa Bay

"HORSE" Award - John Marazzi (BH) defeated John Gliem (TOTB)

Three Point Competition - Tony Suares (Moore & Scarry)

Honda of Ocala Recognizes Perfection: Rewards Students Perfect Attendance


Honda of Ocala Recognize Perfection in Marion County Schools 

General Manager Tom Moore (Honda of Ocala) with a
 lucky iPad recipient. One lucky winner won a brand new Civic!
Both Honda of Ocala and Toyota of Tampa Bay are high performing dealerships. Each store recognizes that to accomplish goals and work at a high level you need dependable and consistent associates.  In today’s society there are doubts as to the quality of the education available in our schools in a period where our kids have more distractions and temptations that ever. That’s why the Morgan Auto Group in Marion and Hillsborough Counties has decided to acknowledge students who have shown consistency in their classroom attendance.

In May and June Toyota of Tampa Bay (Hillsborough County) and Honda of Ocala (Marion County) partnered with their local school boards to recognize those students with perfect attendance. For those students who completed K-12 with perfect attendance Toyota of Tampa Bay recognized them with Toshiba Laptops and Honda of Ocala with Apple iPad’s. All students who completed their Senior year with perfect attendance were then placed into a drawing to win either a brand new Honda Civic in Ocala or a new Scion at Toyota of Tampa Bay. 

Emma Derricks from West Port High was Honda of Ocala’s winner of a brand new 2012 Honda Civic and Toyota will be picking their winner during a large dealership event on Saturday June 16th.

Check out the Morgan Auto Group YouTube Channel to view our Public Service Announcement Regarding this Event!
