    DENVER, July 30 -- Grease Monkey International, Inc.,
announced today that it will become an exclusive partner of King Soopers in
its extremely successful SooperCard program.  Effective August 1, Grease

    "We are thrilled about this partnership," said Charles Steinbrueck,

customers with terrific value."
    According to the terms of the agreement reached between King Soopers and

other preventive maintenance services.  The offer will be available at all 49
Grease Monkey centers along the Front Range, including 39 in the Denver metro

    All Grease Monkey centers feature a Full Service Oil Change which includes
new oil and filter, checks of major fluids, interior vacuum and exterior
window wash.  In addition to the Full Service Oil Changes, centers provide a
variety of preventive maintenance services that meet manufacturers'
recommendations for most makes and models of vehicles.
