On Friday, students from Brockington Elementary School came to Goodson’s Tire to learn about basic car maintenance. Joseph Gainey, teacher of this class, has led the field trip for the past few years to help teach kids this vital piece of knowledge that is not taught in today’s schools. The students learned how to change oil and observed many parts of the facility including the tire repair, engine repair, wheel alignment and other departments of the shop.
