Ward’s Auto Painting and Bodyworks hosted a ribbon cutting Oct. 23 at 992 E. Oglethorpe Highway in Flemington in conjunction with the Liberty County Chamber of Commerce.

Owner Robbie Ward welcomed staff, family, friends, chamber staff, ambassadors, chamber members and people from the community to the event. He said he is a “big believer” in the chamber and also expressed his love of Hinesville.

“There are great people, and it’s a great market,” he said.

Ward’s Auto Painting and Bodyworks, which has three locations in Savannah, handles all insurance claims and personal repairs. Within the next month Hertz Rental car will be located inside the business. The business’ technicians are I-Car trained and ASE certified. These independent organizations offer training and certification programs to ensure technicians are up to date on the latest collision repair techniques and safety standards.

“We would like to welcome you to Hinesville and the chamber family. We are happy to have you here. If there is ever anything you need of us, feel free to call on any member of the chamber staff,” chamber board member Barbara Meador Finster said.
