June fifteenth this year would be the moment when the Boy Scouts of America’s Cascade Pacific Council would be respecting the Ford Motor Company. The company would be given by the mentioned council as the Motorsports Company of the Year. Such an event would occur in the council’s 17th yearly Motorsports Breakfast which would be held in Portland, Oregon. In truth, this breakfast is actually done as an element of the activities and events of the Grand Prix of Portland which is an annual stop of the Bridgestone Presents The Champion Automobile World Series Powered by Ford.
It was Ron Bennett who presented and gave the Motorsports Company of the Year award to the Ford Motor Company. Ron Bennett is one of the members of the Motorsports Breakfast Steering Committee. While respecting the company, he declares, “There are a lot of likenesses between the Ford Motor Company and the Boy Scouts. The perfect example is the Pinewood Derby. We both exercise imaginations and find out about the problems of building the ideal race auto. From designing the automobile, putting the weights and even developing paint schemes, the Scouts prepare for their races in pretty much the same way our engineers test and develop our race cars.”
This award is a distinction that is recognized good enough by the company. Essentially, Jamie Allison, the boss for the Ford Racing Performance Group, had something to say about this. He states, “It is an accolade to be recognized by the Cascade Pacific Council, Boy Scouts of America. I’m privileged to accept this award on behalf of Dan Davis, Director of Ford Racing Technology and Ford Racing. It is a great honor for us to be recognized by an association that has such an impact on the young people of the Portland area and across the country.” With the various kinds of awards and accolades that the company has received through the years, this award would be another one that would be part of the company’s treasure.
