Car test-drives part of Port Angeles High School fundraiser

PORT ANGELES — A Port Angeles dealership, Price Ford Lincoln, has teamed up with Port Angeles High School once again for a Drive One 4 UR School fundraiser Sunday.

Residents are invited to stop by the high school at 304 E. Park Ave. between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. to test-drive a new Ford or Lincoln vehicle.

For each test-drive taken by a participant, $20 will be donated to Career Technical Education leadership activities: Distributive Education Clubs of America (DECA), Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA), Naval Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps cadets (NJROTC) and SkillsUSA.

The Drive One 4 UR School fundraiser can earn upwards of $6,000 during the Port Angeles event.

There is no obligation to buy a vehicle. There is a limit of one test-drive per household.

All drivers must be 18 or older and have a valid driver’s license and valid automobile insurance to test-drive.

Car seats cannot be accommodated for this event.

Ford’s Drive One 4 UR School program began in 2007 and since then has sponsored thousands of events, raising more than $35 million in donations for schools and nonprofits.
