Florence & White Ford and the Ford Motor Company are again offering DCHS Football the opportunity to raise thousands of dollars with their annual test drive program on Friday, August 4. Tiger football fans can earn money for the DCHS football program by simply test-driving a new Ford at the school.
Fans are invited to come out as early as 1:00 p.m. to enjoy a meal and to test drive a new Ford vehicle by the Florence & White dealership in Smithville. For every valid test drive, Ford will donate $20 to the football program. The more fans who come out and test drive a new Ford vehicle, the more money will be made for DCHS football. Last year’s event raised $6,020.
The Tigers will play a scrimmage game that night on the road at Friendship Christian.
“Barbeque meals will be available for sale but we’ll give a free barbeque meal to anyone who participates in the test drive event. The football team and coaches will be there until they leave to go to the scrimmage game at Friendship Christian,” said Tony Cross, member of the Quarterback Club.
The Tigers will compete in a pre-season Jamboree at Upperman against Clay County on August 11.
The season kicks off with two straight road games for the Tigers starting with Warren County on August 18th followed by Upperman on August 25. The first home game is against Stone Memorial on September 1. All games start at 7:00 p.m. WJLE will have LIVE coverage each week.
