We couldn’t have been happier to hear this terrific feedback from a southern California family who enjoyed the “Best Seat in the House” at Petco Park. Had to share:

“I am writing to thank Mr. Weber and Jerome’s Furniture for such a great experience at the Padre’s game with the Jerome’s Best Seat in the House. My family – me, my husband, son and nephew – went last night, Saturday, July 31st. We had such a great time. The Padres staff was wonderful. We loved our seats. The view was incredible! What a unique way to see the game and feel like a VIP. Thank you so much for such an incredible experience. I won the prize, too, which is amazing. We truly are grateful.” Best Regards, Mrs. Sorchy

We had an aweome experience meeting Chargers linebacker, Larry English and his family at his new home in San Diego. They welcomed us in to take pictures of Larry and Jerry Navarra, Chairman of Jerome’s Furniture, on Larry’s brand new sectional from Jerome’s furniture. Larry states, “It’s comfortable, and big enough for my family and friends to relax”. His whole house was decorated with so much style – it felt like a dream-come-true bachelor pad with familial touches to make it cozy.

Charger’s season is just around the corner with training starting tonight at midnight and the first preseason game in only two weeks! Jerome’s gave Larry his “Best Seat in the House” and now it’s your turn to win the “Best Seat at the Q.”

A Father’s Day to Remember….

admin — Tue, 13 Jul 2010 18:52:21 +0000

Our Father’s Day ”Best Dad in San Diego contest,” showed us how MANY great DAD’s there are in San Diego that deserved to watch our Pads from the Best Seat in the House. However, we could only choose one winner, so KC Ports took her Dad, husband and son to the Father’s Day game. In her submission she stated that as long as she can remember her Dad took her to watch the Padres every chance he got. KC’s Dad has Alzheimers now and had been begging KC to take him to a game. They had a great time, she writes: ”I want to thank everyone again for the awesome day we had. My Dad actually remembers some of the day & the pictures we have help. We also won the trivia contest & chose to use the credit to buy 2 motion love seats. WE LOVE THEM. I’d been searching for theater seating but we didn’t want leather, these are PERFECT! We also won tailgating bbq & stand & I just used it to bbq for 40 people. Easy to clean, BBQ’s Galore threw in the stand, so wonderful. THANK YOU all so much! My Dad, husband, son & I are enjoying all of it. We will treasure that day for years to come,” KC Ports. Thank you KC for taking the time to honor your “Best Dad in San Diego.”

Congratulations to fourth grader Kelani Allen, Merced Calif. for winning Jerome’s “Create your own dream room” contest. Kelani was one of many children who entered the contest at this year’s KidsWalk, a special part of Mission Federal ArtWalk. With so many creative pictures to choose from, it was really a tough decision for the Jerome’s team. Kelani drew a picture of her dream room (picture on the left), and then was rewarded with a shopping spree to Jerome’s where she picked out furniture that made her vision a reality. Kelani’s mom, Dana Allen writes, “This was truly a great experience for our family; Kelani is still in awe. We are thankful to Jerome’s for hosting such a contest that allows kids to express their dreams through art. We’re sure there were a lot of great entries that were submitted, and it is with humble hearts that we receive such a Blessing.” Congratulations again Kelani, and thank you to all of the children that submitted their dream room. We have created a special wall in our stores decorated with the children’s great entries. Please visit your local Jerome’s furniture store to see children’s fun imagination come to life of their ideal dream room.

Jerome’s Invites Community to Grand Opening in Corona

admin — Thu, 17 Jun 2010 16:47:06 +0000

New showroom opens its doors on Saturday, July 3 with fun to be enjoyed by the whole family during Independence Day Weekend!

Family owned and operated, Jerome’s Furniture (Jerome’s), founded in 1954 and regarded as the best furniture retailer for value and a wide selection of products, is officially opening the doors of its newest store in the City of Corona. The new location, located at 3615 Grand Oaks, Suite C-1 in The Crossings at Corona shopping center, spans more than 42,500 square feet and will serve the city of Corona and surrounding areas in western Riverside County. For a city whose heritage spans more than a century, Corona has emerged as an ethnically diverse community where a significant percentage of the population is made up of young, well educated families.

“It’s exciting to open our doors in Corona,” said Lee Goodman, president and CEO of Jerome’s. “Many members of the community have been shopping at our Murrieta showroom and now we’ll be even closer neighbors. I think locals appreciate the exceptional value that Jerome’s brings with selection, service, and ease of Same Day Delivery.”

Voted as the “Best Furniture Store” by the San Diego Union-Tribune reader’s poll consecutively for nine years, Jerome’s remains committed to Jerry’s Price, which promises low prices everyday so customers don’t have to wait to get the best deals or navigate through retailer gimmicks and promotions. The showroom will feature the following departments: Kidz to Teens; Leather; Dining; Jerome’s Dream Shop (mattresses); living room; entertainment; home office; and a clearance center. In addition, the popular “Room Packages” that make it easy for shoppers to select a coordinated room ensemble at a discount price will be on prominent display in the showroom.

This is the second new store opening for Jerome’s in 2010; the company’s Murrieta Showroom opened in February (located at 24410 Village Walk Place, Murrieta California 92562.) The company set its sights on the new location based on the region’s demographics, positive awareness of Jerome’s as a long-standing company in southern California, and the close access of the company’s distribution center which provides customers with the pleasure of Same Day Delivery. Steve Avoyer and Brad Williams of Flocke & Avoyer Commercial Real Estate and Doug Arthur of SENTRE Partners represented Jerome’s in this lease transaction.

An invested part of the community, Jerome’s company leadership was proud to be recognized with the Lifetime Achievement award at the City of Hope West Coast Golf and Tennis tournament held on June 7 at the Cota de Caza Golf and Racquet Club. For nine years, Jerome’s Furniture has been actively involved in the event that raises money for lifesaving cancer research, treatment and education. The Lifetime Achievement Award recognized the company for more than 50 years of service to its community, philanthropic contributions and business accomplishments. This year, the organization was delighted as the event raised nearly half a million dollars for the City of Hope.

Community members are invited to Jerome’s Grand Opening to enjoy festivities throughout the day. The open house event will feature activities for the whole family including clowns and balloon animals to entertain kids. There will be chances to win furniture prizes from Jerome’s extensive product inventory, tickets to sporting events and more.

Jerome’s family member and cancer survivor Ann Navarra has helped raise $500,000 this year for the City of Hope

Jerome’s furniture, family-owned and operated since 1954, is proud to be recognized with the Lifetime Achievement award at the City of Hope West Coast Golf and Tennis tournament on June 7. For nine years, Jerome’s Furniture has been actively involved in the event that raises money for lifesaving cancer research, treatment and education. For the Jerome’s family, this cause hits close to home. Family member Ann Navarra is a cancer survivor.

Four-some team from Jerome's

The Lifetime Achievement Award recognized Jerome’s Furniture for more than 50 years of service to its community, philanthropic contributions and business accomplishments. Jerome’s leadership team and employees spent the day with members of the furniture retail business community of the West Coast at the Cota de Caza Golf and Racquet Club for an inspiring day. By sundown, the organization was delighted as the event raised nearly half a million dollars this year for the City of Hope. Drawing 400 attendees, the tournament was a successful turnout.

“Being a cancer survivor myself, I can truly understand the difficult physical and emotional impact of the disease,” says Ann Navarra. “I am honored to be surrounded by those that are as passionate as I am about finding a cure and supporting such a wonderful life-changing cause.”

Beyond raising money, the Jerome’s family actively participated in the tournament. Ann, the event’s first ever honoree in 2001, along with sales managers and employees played in the golf tournament. Lee Goodman, president and CEO of Jerome’s furniture along with other employees participated in the tennis match.

Jerome’s Furniture is known for “Jerry’s Price” which demonstrates the company’s commitment to providing low prices everyday without retailer gimmicks and promotions. Serving San Diego for nearly 60 years, Jerome’s has been deeply involved in giving back to the community. This is present in the company’s philanthropic support of several non-profits including: ArtReach, Rady’s Childrens Hospital, YWCA and many more. “We are honored to receive such a prestigious award from City of Hope,” said Jerry Navarra, chairman of Jerome’s Furniture. “With thousands of people who will be diagnosed with cancer this year alone, it’s important that we support the City of Hope’s efforts to quickly turn promising scientific discoveries into new treatments for patients who need it.”

In its 19 year history, the West Coast Golf and Tennis Tournament and dinner raised over five and a half million dollars for City of Hope. The event includes a golf and tennis tournament, a dinner, a silent auction and raffle with all proceeds going towards the City of Hope Hospital foundation.
