Road Trip

December 2, 2011

We love maps, probably because we spend a lot of time with them during our travels across our great state.

To continue on with the transition theme from fall to winter, here’s a look at the road trip our Home Team Marketing representatives took this week.

If you attended a football, boys soccer or volleyball Regional, Semifinal or Final, mostly below the 45th parallel, you no doubt saw our banners or signs.

With those seasons over, and someone’s got to pick them up. So HTM took a U-Haul truck coast to coast to grab all of our gear to be re-deployed for the next round of tournaments.

The day-long event will feature dynamic speakers and presenters providing knowledge in several sports and all levels including collegiate and professional. We will be highlighting several of those speakers over the next many weeks on MHSAA.com and social media as part of the lead-up to the event.
