I opted for the $35 wash which includes all the stuff in the lower level washes plus interior vacuum, windows cleaned, console dusted and door jambs wiped. I figure if I keep up with it it will keep my truck looking new for years and I really like my two year old truck.

Here is a video of the process and advice from owner Steve Milan:
Some words from owner Steve Milan: So I want to address the belief that a friction car wash damages the car’s paint. My car is 16 years old and has 226,000 miles on it. You seen it today! Second… on my FB post, that you saw, I woman commented that she would rather go to the car wash that is automated, select her wash package choice and put her money into the machine without being pressured into buying any other extra services. At Maplewood Car Wash the Greeter will ask you if you, want an extra service. ( If you go to McDonald’s, and order anything, they will ask you if you want, an apple pie or is that a large size fries or drink. Every business does this, it is called, UP SELLING! Only asking the customer if they want to upgrade,1 time. That is all. The customer just has to say, No Thank you. No reason to feel pressured into buying more. #3..We offer personal service, you talk to an employee when you come in, your vehicle gets PREPPED, before washing, Towel Dried at the end and Satisfaction is Guaranteed. If you are not happy, there is a Manager for you to talk to, and He WILL, make it right for you. Try talking to the machine at the automated car wash and see if it can solve your dissatisfaction. .. YOU WILL NEVER BE LEFT ALONE, at MAPLEWOOD CAR WASH!

HOLIDAY DELIGHTS 2024
The Cape Ann YMCA presents Holiday Delights on December 13 at 7pm; December 14 at 2pm and December 15 at 2pm at the Annisquam Village Hall, 34 Leonard Street, Gloucester, MA. Set in Gloucester, Holiday Delights is a festive mix of stories, songs and dance celebrating the special traditions of other cultures and families as seen through a young child’s magical journey on Christmas Eve to discover what is really important during the holiday season. A Cape Ann holiday tradition, Holiday Delights is conceived and directed by Gloucester native, award winning professional actress and Harvard University graduate Heidi Dallin, the YMCA of the North Shore Theatre Specialist. Since the production’s premiere in 2007 over 750 young people from Cape Ann and beyond have appeared in Holiday Delights through the years.
“It is so exciting each year to see these wonderful young actors tell the story of Holiday Delights! I am so fortunate to work with all of them! They are all working so hard and now they are part of this Cape Ann tradition entering its 14th year!” says Holiday Delights creator and director Heidi Dallin. “This year 10-year-old Carolyn Andrews plays Mistletoe, Mrs. Claus’ Elf Assistant,” continues Dallin, “Young Carolyn is excited to play the coveted role especially since her big sister Malia played the role in 2016. Malia is now a freshman at BU School for the Arts studying Acting. Holiday Delights is a family tradition on Cape Ann!“
The 2024 edition of Holiday Delights features the journey of a young girl who discovers the spirit and the joys of the holiday season as she faces the unhappy prospect of leaving her beloved hometown of Gloucester and moving with her family to a new home in Michigan. Her special Christmas Eve journey helps her to realize and appreciate the importance of her family and friends as well as her own special holiday traditions. During her Christmas Eve travels with Mrs. Claus and the elves, she celebrates Hanukkah, travels back in time to turn of the century Gloucester to see her Italian-Irish ancestors celebrate the holidays, and meets famous characters including The Crachit Family from Charles Dickens’ holiday masterpiece, A Christmas Carol and The March Sisters from Louisa May Alcott’s heartwarming classic novel, Little Women.
The 2024 production has a cast of over 35 actors age 5 to 15 from throughout the North Shore including Gloucester, Rockport, Beverly, and Essex. Holiday Delights 2024 features Gloucester’s Brae Gavin as Mrs. Claus and Gloucester’s Aubrey Hamm as the young girl she takes on the life changing Christmas Eve journey. Gloucester’s Carolyn Andrews and Beverly’s Evie Swallom are Mistletoe and Peppermint, Mrs. Claus’ loyal elf assistants. Beverly’s Madelyn Swallom and Gloucester’s Lillian Jamieson are also featured in the production as the supervisors of Santa’s Workshop.
