Hello Gift of Life Michigan Volunteers,
Hartley our Mascot, has been asked to attend this years Gift of Life Michigan Inspiring Champions Symposium at Ford field.
Roary, the Lions mascot will also be in attendance.
We need one volunteer to act as Hartley and one volunteer to act as their handler.
If you would like more information about being Hartley please see that information linked below:
Here are the details:
Date: Thursday, 5/14
Time: The event runs from 9-4:10, but the Hartley performance will be from around 3-4:10
Location: Ford Field, Detroit
Parking: We will provide a code for free parking across from the stadium
Dressing room: A suite has been reserved for Hartley’s exclusive use.
The educational part of the Symposium will run from 9-3, and then attendees will be given a behind-the-scenes tour of Ford Field. They’ll go in groups of approximately 30, and tour the stadium in a round-robin route, so that they can get everyone through at the same time (approximately 3:10-4:10).
One of the tour stops (*fingers crossed nothing changes*) will be the field. We’ve secured Roary to be at this location for pictures, and we’d like to have Hartley join him.
Ford Field is much more protective of their field than the Big House is, so while there will be an opportunity to take photos, they don’t allow footballs or playing on the field.
