“We are so appreciative of the team at Tri-State Ford for offering the Drive 4UR School fundraiser. This will be a really fun event, so we encourage everyone to come out, check out some awesome Ford vehicles, and help us raise some money for the year. There’s no cost to participate, drivers just need to fill out a survey after their test drive and our #SingingSpoofhounds will receive a donation” Parsons said.
