About PACKARD PROVING GROUNDS HISTORIC SITE

Location:

49965 VAN DYKE AVE, SHELBY TWP, MI 48317, US

Mission Statement

Our mission is to preserve the legacy of the Packard Motor Car Company through the restoration & preservation of the Packard Proving Grounds.

Description

The Packard Proving Grounds Historic (PPG) Site is owned by The Packard Motor Car Foundation (PMCF) & is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization. It is funded by foundation grants, individual & corporate contributions, service groups & events. The site runs on almost entirely volunteer power! The PMCF became focused on the preservation under the leadership of President Becca Kuehl, who supported a group of Michigan-based Packard enthusiasts who were mobilizing to preserve a portion of the famous Proving Grounds which had been slated for demolition. The site has grown to approximately 17 acres of land and has become a multi-use facility and destination for events ranging from car shows to weddings and corporate events to a farmers market. Visitors are treated to educational tours of the facility which has broadened the awareness and support of the Proving Grounds far beyond the Packard collectors who started the effort.
