R.E.A.C.'s May Outing 2019

5/22/2019

0 Comments

 
Our Retired Eagles Activity Club (R.E.A.C.) headed to Motown recently for their monthly outing. They met at Z’s Villa Restaurant in the New Center area of the city for lunch, before heading over for a tour of the Ford Piquette Avenue Plant.

The Ford Piquette Plant was built in 1904 and is the birthplace of the Model T car. Everyone found it interesting to learn that in the early days of the plant the cars were assembled in a stationary position by hand, and you could buy them in red, blue, and green. It wasn't until the process became mechanized, and they moved production to the Highland Park plant in 1910, that the cars only became available in black. They changed to black because it dried faster and was a better fit with the moving assembly line. (Thank you to Bill Richards for the brief history of the plant.)

We hope you enjoy these pictures from their outing and consider joining them next month. They never fail to do something interesting and have fun. Thank you to Gayle Bellamy, Nancy McFall and Bill Richards for the pictures.
