PRINCE FREDERICK, MARYLAND – Across the United States, there are vital arts, music and sports programs that are being cut annually due to growing budgetary constraints and lack of funding. Today’s youth are missing out on extremely valuable opportunities to expand their knowledge and diversify their interests, as well as the chance to have a little fun!  Prince Frederick Ford wants to keep these opportunities available for our local students at Huntingtown High School.

Dealership staff on site will be able to assist with all Ford vehicles and provide additional information about each vehicle available for test-drive.

When asked what she likes most about working at Prince Frederick Ford; Stacy states “What I enjoy most about working with this dealership is having  the opportunity to work within three different departments (Parts, Service, & Warranty).  Getting exposure to all three departments has allowed me to learn the inner workings of fixed operations.  I also enjoy working with customers and resolving customer service issues.  Most importantly knowing that I can handle the challenge of jumping from chair to chair gives me the greatest feeling of accomplishment.”

Stacy feels that her customers are family and just like her own, believes that it is important to build a solid foundation.
