Sioux Falls Ford Surprises Avera McKennan Foundation with Mustang

Sioux Falls Ford surprised the Avera McKennan Foundation by donating a 2-year lease on a "Warriors in Pink" Ford Mustang convertible. The vehicle will be used by hospital staff and honorary co-chair cancer survivors to "spread the word" about breast cancer throughout the region. The Mustang also serves as the "pace" car during the Avera Race Against Breast Cancer and will be used for Think Pink events.
