LINCOLN COMMUNITY HIGH
SCHOOL PARTNERS WITH DODGE!
On
Saturday at band practice from 10 a.m. to
1:30 p.m. at Lincoln Community High School,
there will be a
fundraiser for the high school band with the help of
the Dodge brand and Lincoln Chrysler Dodge & Jeep.
Dodge has a
program that combines support for high school
enrichment programs with exposure for the new
Dodge Durango, Journey and Grand Caravan. The whole community is invited to participate.
Anyone 18 or over with a valid driver’s
license can join in.
Lincoln Chrysler Dodge &
Jeep will bring new Dodge vehicles to the
school. LCHS will earn
$20 from Dodge for every person who takes a
brief test drive and completes a short survey.
Local dealership staff has volunteered to help
facilitate the fundraising test drives.
