Valencia Acura Partners with the Experience Genie
In a day filled with friendship and love, Valencia Acura partnered with the internationally-known Experience Genie to surprise a very deserving local family.

Jose Espinosa has been diagnosed with colon cancer; the prognosis is not good. His wife, Andrea, and young children - Xiomara and Esai - have been his constant supporters. That's why Jose asked the Experience Genie to surprise his family with a "dream day."

The surprises started at Valencia Acura, where the family was provided with a brand new Acura ZDX to drive for the day. They were then treated to a luxury hotel suite in Los Angeles, indoor sky diving, a private helicopter tour and an afternoon at a spa.

"We are long-time supporters of the American Cancer Society and Henry Mayo Newhall Memorial Hospital," said Cheri Fleming, co-owner of Valencia Acura, "So when the Experience Genie told us about the Espinosa family, we were thrilled to help create their dream day."

Cheri and Don Fleming have owned and operated Valencia Acura since 1997. Their personal day-to-day dedication to running the dealership, combined with their extensive local community involvement, has made Valencia Acura one of the top independent Acura dealers in the country; www.valenciaacura.com.
