The United Ford Owners hosts a major PICNIC on its five year anniversaries. These have always been a must attend event for our members. 2015 marked our 30th year and we missed a fantastic chance for an outing/picnic for Club members and their families because no one would step up and organize the outing.

UFO members visit local shops, on SHOP TOURS of businesses involved in various aspects of our hobby including metal finishing, hot rod building, frame work and many other types of local shops.
