Robinson Bulldog Fans and Supporters,  thank you for participating in this important fundraiser. It may be the EASIEST fundraiser ever, but critical to raising much needed funding for our football program  We need 300 people to test drive a new Lincoln vehicle on June 1, between 10am - 4pm on Jay M Robinson’s campus.  Please click here to select your ten minute time slot, register your name and email address.  This is available only to drivers age 18 and up, and only one test drive per address. 

Call your friends, neighbors and relatives to help us meet our goal of 300 test drives!  On event day, please arrive ten minutes early to check in with your driver’s license.  Of the 300 test drives, Keith Hawthorne Lincoln will give us an additional $20 for each person who test drives a second vehicle.  One test drive scores the Bulldogs $20, but if you test drive a second Lincoln, you score a total of $40 for the football program!  Click here to view the event flyer.

Congratulations to our Bulldog of the Month Mrs. Debbie Beneduce.  She greets all with a smile every day, watches over our office assistants, maintains a positive attitude, and has been described by many staff members as “the glue that holds this place together.”  Thank you to Mrs. Beneduce for your strength and for always smiling.
