December 5, 2019— AAA is preparing for winter driving and the holiday season with a free event to help Oklahomans prepare as well.  AAA members and non-members alike are invited to a Holiday Open House, Friday, December 6, or Saturday, December 7, 2019, at 10 AAA Oklahoma’s locations. Visit www.aaa.com/stores to find your nearest AAA location. Stores open Saturday will have Open House festivities, giveaways and prize drawings then. Others will celebrate on Friday.

Whether its shoppers looking for the perfect gift, travelers looking to make vacation plans or drivers getting ready for the road, this is a unique opportunity for one-stop winter/holiday preparation. Items – suitable for stocking stuffers - such as ice scrapers, tire gauges and car air fresheners - will be given away to those attending the Holiday Open House.

The AAA Oklahoma Roadside Rescue Team assisted 2,900 over the five-day Thanksgiving holiday with the majority of vehicle issues requiring a tow, replacement battery and tire service. Drivers are encouraged to prepare now for travel in the cold months ahead with a membership checkup.
