LAKE WALES – The Lake Wales High Senior Class and Weikert Ford invite local drivers to “Drive One 4 Ur School.”
The test drive event is 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 25. It will help raise money for the 2011 LWHS Graduation Ceremony at Bok Tower Gardens. Test drives will take place at Weikert Ford on Highway 27.
Ford and Weikert Ford will donate $20 for every individual who test drives any new Ford. Each test drive will last 7-10 minutes. Participants must be 18 or older, and have a valid driver’s license. Only one participant per household.
The Senior Class also will provide free car washes during the event, so participants can get their “old” cars washed while they are test-driving new Fords!
“Drive One 4 Ur School” is part of a nationwide event involving hundreds of Ford dealers. Local high schools are eligible to earn up to $6,000 through the test drives.
