Jonathon Naylor Editor In many ways, high school is a preview _ a test drive, if you will _ of adulthood. Perhaps with this metaphor in mind, Northland Ford recently held its Drive One 4 UR School event. For every test drive motorists took on Saturday, June 16, the community-minded dealership donated $20 to the 2012 graduation at Hapnot Collegiate. The event brought in an eye-popping $1,400, with grad committee president Courtlyn Willetts gladly accepting the cheque from Northland Ford's Krista Lemcke and Nikki McConnell. The dealership has run Drive One 4 UR School in each of the last three years, generating a total of about $11,000 for the high school. Hapnot will host its 2012 graduation ceremony tomorrow evening at the Whitney Forum.
