Automotive Parts Associates Inc. (APA) has reported that the winners of its Professionals’ Choice Las Vegas Adrenaline Weekend Promotion recently returned from an incredible weekend of VIP treatment.

Eight individuals experienced a special trip to Las Vegas where they enjoyed balcony suites overlooking the Bellagio fountain, a helicopter tour that featured a champagne picnic inside the Grand Canyon and a day spent driving exotic cars at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

These winners were customers of APA shareholders Value Plus Auto Parts Wholesale in Westland, Michigan; Peterborough Automotive (Bestbuy Distributors) in Canada; Automotive Supply in Wichita, Kansas; and World Auto Parts in Cleveland, Ohio, respectively.

“Nothing beats seeing the smiles and look of awe on the winners’ faces when they stepped out of the helicopters inside the Grand Canyon,” said Caprice Caster, CMP, director of events and promotions for Automotive Parts Associates.
