Ford Motor Company and Evergreen Ford will donate $20 for every person from a unique household who test-drives a select new Ford vehicle.

This event is behind held in conjunction with the Skyline Football and Spartan Youth Football barbecue.

Participants must be 18 or older and have a valid driver’s license. Limit one test drive per household.
