Start your weekend in the woods — with a little extra horsepower. Head to Holly State Recreation Area on Saturday, July 19, 2025, from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m., where the Southeast Michigan Ford Dealers and the Ford Bronco Wild Fund are bringing exciting activities for all ages.
The vibe? Think park day meets auto show. From lawn games and Bronco test drives to eye-catching vehicle displays and a chance to win a brand-new 2025 Ford Bronco, there’s something for everyone:
- Hands-on fun: Join in lawn games, interactive displays and activities for kids
- Try it for yourself: Hop into a Bronco for an on-site test drive
- Owners welcome: Special off-road experience for Bronco owners at the nearby Holly Oaks ORV Park
Plus, cheer on the endurance athletes running in the Ode to Laz Backyard Ultra Race, which happens at the park’s race course at the same time.
This fun-filled event also supports a great cause. Thanks to a donation from Southeast Michigan Ford Dealers, this state park will be improving park trails and footbridges, benefiting both the community and the race course. It’s all part of the Bronco Wild Fund’s mission to protect public lands and complete 60 cleanups in celebration of Bronco’s 60th anniversary.
Whether you’re car curious or just want an excuse to spend time outside, this is a fun way to explore one of metro Detroit’s best state recreation areas.
