Their attendance was tracked from August 29, 2016 through May 5, 2017 and a student who entered in was randomly selected.

“This giveaway has become one of the most exciting and fulfilling traditions at Honda of Ocala. Investing in our community and its future through education is a priority for us,” said Andrew Vislosky, General Manager of Honda of Ocala in a press release.
