The Santa Maria Model A Ford Club is celebrating 20 years of raising money for students in Allan Hancock College’s industrial technology program this September.
The club will host its annual All Ford Car Show to benefit Hancock students, 9 a.m.-3 p.m. Satruday, Sept. 10 at Orcutt Union Plaza, 201 S. Broadway, Santa Maria.
The club’s long-running event has raised more than $70,000 for scholarships benefiting Hancock’s industrial technology students over the last 20 years
“We look forward to this event every year. It’s a great opportunity to come together and give back to our community,” said Jay McCord, a Model A Ford Club member and car show chairman. “Many of the students that received past scholarships now have successful careers in their industry.”
The Santa Maria Model A Ford Club has been a long-time supporter of Hancock’s auto body and auto technology programs. Founded by Chuck Bailey, a former Hancock instructor, and Van Newkirk, the club started its partnership with Hancock with two scholarships for $200 each.
Sellers/entrants, $25 advance registration, $35 at the door.
