Brown Bear Car Wash tunnel wash locations, including Auburn at 814 Auburn Way S., will offer free “Beary Clean” car washes on Thursday, Aug. 25 as the family-owned company celebrates its 59th anniversary.

The company’s 22 tunnel wash locations across the Puget Sound will be open 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. during the special event.

Last year’s one-day “birthday” added sparkle and shine to 26,437 cars and trucks across the Puget Sound area. For the past nine years, family-owned Brown Bear has provided more than 250,000 free washes as it celebrated its August “birthday” with customers and honored veterans and current service members on Veterans Day.

During the celebration, on Aug. 25 only, two lucky customers will be selected to receive free car washes for a year: an annual membership to Brown Bear’s Unlimited Wash Club. Enter to win by taking a photo of your newly-washed vehicle and posting it on Twitter (@brownbear) or Instagram (@brownbearcarwash) with the hashtag #FreeCarWashDay.
