Steet Ponte Nissan Recognized as a 2026 Platinum Elite Nissan Dealer

There’s nothing quite like a little friendly competition—and the Steet Ponte Nissan Soccerfest brought plenty of it to the field! Steet Ponte Nissan was proud to sponsor this exciting soccer tournament, held at Accelerate Sports, bringing together eight local high school teams for a day of competition, teamwork and fun. The tournament featured student-athletes from schools throughout the area, including: Utica Academy of Science Fowler High School New Hartford High School Whitesboro High School Henniger High School Central Valley Liverpool High School Nottingham High School With so many talented teams taking the field, Soccerfest was a great opportunity for local student-athletes to compete against one another, showcase their skills and represent their schools. After a day of exciting soccer, Whitesboro High School took home the championship, with Nottingham High School finishing as the runner-up. Congratulations to both teams—and to every player and coach who competed throughout the tournament! At Steet Ponte Nissan, we’re proud to support events that give local students opportunities to compete, build relationships and create memories with their teammates. High school athletics are about more than what happens on the scoreboard—they teach teamwork, dedication, perseverance and sportsmanship that students can carry with them well beyond the field. We want to thank Accelerate Sports for hosting such a great event and congratulate all eight schools for making the inaugural Steet Ponte Nissan Soccerfest such a success. Most importantly, thank you to all of the student-athletes, coaches and families who came out and made the day so special. Congratulations, Whitesboro—and great job to all of our Soccerfest competitors! We can’t wait to see everyone back on the field next year! ⚽

What’s better than a day at the ballpark? A day at the ballpark with your Steet Ponte family! ⚾ This year, the Steet Ponte Auto Group took our team spirit on the road for our first-ever Steet Ponte Auto Group bus trip to see the New York Yankees take on the Boston Red Sox! The idea for the trip came from Kathy Williams of Steet Ponte Ford Lincoln, who did an incredible job organizing and bringing this first-time event to life. We had team members representing almost all of our Steet Ponte stores join us for a day filled with baseball, great food, drinks and plenty of laughs. And Mother Nature certainly cooperated! We were treated to beautiful weather as we enjoyed the game from our group seating area, complete with lunch and drinks. It was the perfect setting to relax, enjoy some baseball and spend time with coworkers outside of the dealerships. While the Yankees and Red Sox provided plenty of action on the field, the best part of the day was simply getting everyone together. With team members from across the Auto Group along for the trip, it was a great opportunity to connect with coworkers we may not get to see every day and enjoy a memorable experience together. A huge thank-you to Kathy Williams for coming up with the idea and putting so much time and effort into organizing such a fantastic day. She set the bar pretty high for our first Steet Ponte bus trip! We’re already looking forward to doing it again—and who knows where the next Steet Ponte adventure will take us! Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make our first Yankees vs. Red Sox bus trip such a success. We can’t wait for the next one! ⚾🚌

The start of a new school year is full of excitement, anticipation and plenty of preparation. At Steet Ponte Nissan, we’re proud to help make sure local students have one less thing to worry about! This year marked the 3rd Annual Steet Ponte Auto Group School Supplies & Backpack Drive, and together we were able to donate a total of 576 backpacks filled with essential school supplies to students in our communities. Each backpack was filled with classroom necessities including folders, crayons, glue sticks, scissors, pencils and more. Steet Ponte Nissan, along with our fellow Steet Ponte stores on Commercial Drive, was proud to support students in the Utica City School District. We hope these backpacks help students head into the new school year feeling prepared, motivated and confident. We know that having the right supplies can be the first step toward having a great year! We’re grateful for the opportunity to give back and support the students who will help shape the future of our community. Good luck to all of our local students—we hope you have an amazing school year!
