Ray's CARSTAR in Bristol, Connecticut, recently held a community day for local residents, according to a press release.

The CARSTAR location at 137 Terryville Road held the event on May 13, where 2023 University of Connecticut men’s basketball team member Donovan Clingan was present to sign autographs and meet with fans after winning the national championship this season.

The event featured a vintage car show with vehicles loaned by the community. Each attendee was given a complimentary raffle ticket to win either a University of Connecticut gift basket or a University of Connecticut jersey autographed by Clingan.

“We would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone involved in this special community day event,” said Steve Merchant, co-owner of Ray’s CARSTAR, via the press release. “From the Bristol residents who attended, the CARSTAR team that helped us get to this point, and of course, Donovan Clingan, I couldn’t be prouder.”
