What a week! The Monroe County Fair was an absolute blast, and the team at Friendly Ford had such a fantastic time connecting with everyone. This year's theme, "Bounty of the County," was on full display, from the incredible 4-H projects to the delicious food, and we were thrilled to add to the excitement with our own special giveaway! We love getting out and connecting with the community, and we wanted to bring a little extra horsepower to the fair this year. What better way to do that than with a legendary Ford Bronco? While we couldn't give away a full-sized one, we had the next best thing for our future drivers: two stunning 24v Ford Bronco Raptor ride-on toys! This rugged, kid-sized Bronco was the star of our booth, and the excitement was contagious. We asked fairgoers to enter our free giveaway, and the response was overwhelming! We collected over 100 entries from families who dreamed of seeing their little one behind the wheel of this awesome toy. It was a blast hearing stories from parents and grandparents about their own first Fords and seeing the kids’ eyes light up when they saw the prize. After so much anticipation, the time came to draw our winners: A huge congratulations to both Jonathan and Dayna! We are so thrilled for both of you and your families. We hope you have countless hours of backyard adventures in your brand-new Ford Bronco Raptors. Thank you for stopping by our booth and for being part of the fun. To everyone who entered, thank you! Your participation made this contest a massive success and a memorable part of our fair experience. We look forward to seeing you all again soon, whether it's at our next community event or when you're ready for a full-sized adventure vehicle of your own.

Here at Friendly Ford, we believe our commitment to the community goes beyond the vehicles we sell. It’s about building a better, stronger, and more compassionate town for everyone. That’s why we are incredibly proud to announce a special partnership with the renowned organization, Sleep in Heavenly Peace (SHP). Together, we are standing behind their powerful mission: ensuring that "NO KID SLEEPS ON THE FLOOR IN OUR TOWN!" To make this vision a reality, we are closing our dealership for a very special event. On Saturday, September 20, 2025, we will be transforming our space into a workshop of hope for a Bed Build with Sleep in Heavenly Peace! We are calling on our community to help us make a significant impact. We have an ambitious goal to recruit at least 150 volunteers to help us build beds from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM right here at the dealership. Absolutely no prior experience is necessary to participate in this incredibly rewarding day. All you need is a willingness to help. There are multiple ways you can contribute to this wonderful cause: Volunteer for the Bed Build: Roll up your sleeves and join us for a few hours of building, camaraderie, and purpose. You can claim your spot by visiting the event page on Facebook. Donate to the Bedding Drive: From now until September 19, 2025, we are collecting new, twin-sized bedding. Please consider donating comforters, sheet sets, and pillows at the dealership drop-off location. Make a Financial Contribution: Monetary donations are crucial for purchasing the raw materials needed for the beds. To amplify your generosity, Friendly Ford Lincoln will be matching all financial donations up to $12,500! Checks can be made payable to Friendly Ford Lincoln. As a small token of our appreciation, every donation—whether bedding or financial—will earn you an entry into a special drawing! This event is more than just building furniture; it’s about building dreams and providing children in our community with a safe, comfortable place to sleep. For any questions, please don't hesitate to contact Kelsey Smith at (734) 243-6000. Let's come together and ensure every child can sleep well to dream big.
