Alabama’s AAA motor club recently celebrated its 100th anniversary with an open house event that brought together members of the community. Established in July 1924 by a group of automobile owners, the club’s primary mission was to provide assistance to motorists during a time when vehicles were becoming more prevalent on roadways. To mark this milestone, the club hosted the event, offering attendees free refreshments, passport photos, giveaways, and travel discounts at any of the state’s 10 offices.
Since its inception, AAA has been a pioneer in the industry, being the first to establish an emergency road service program. They have also been known for publishing road maps, providing travel information, and advocating for safety and travel-related issues. The centennial celebration was a time for members and the public to come together and reflect on the significant impact that AAA has had on the community over the past century.
Overall, the event was a success, with attendees enjoying the festivities and learning more about the history and contributions of AAA Alabama. As one of the premier motor clubs in the state, AAA continues to serve its members and the broader community with its dedication to providing assistance, resources, and support for motorists. Here’s to another hundred years of service and innovation from AAA Alabama.
