Customers at the new car wash will receive a free top wash with ceramic wax (valued at $26) through September 5, and Champion Xpress will donate to Galesburg Christian School Athletics on behalf of each guest.

“Our Champion building Champions Initiative with Galesburg Christian School Athletics is a key priority for Champion Xpress,” said Trey Merchant, CEO of Champion Xpress Carwash.

“We are blessed to have the opportunity to expand across the Illinois market. It is exceedingly important to our mission to give back to the communities that give so much to us,”

The existing location at 334 E. Carl Sandburg Dr. has undergone nearly $100,000 in improvements over the past year, including new blowers, a high pressure rinse arch, a new vacuum system and a new water purification system.
