Summer isn’t slowing down and neither are we. From TV and radio segments to client events to baseball games, we were as hot as the scorching sun in July.

Media Relations for Metro Detroit Youth Day

We secured a FOX2 segment with anchors Amy Andrews and Jay Towers for client Ed Deeb, founder and chairman of Metro Detroit Youth Day and founder of the Michigan Food and Beverage Association. He talked about MDYD with eighth grade biology teacher Andrew Tisdale, who demonstrated a science experiment that the kids attending the annual event would participate in.

Metro Detroit Youth Day

We were delighted to support Metro Detroit Youth Day on Belle Isle – inspiring kids to do the most good. Nate, Megan, Jess and Joe had a blast coordinating live TV interviews and capturing pictures and video for social media.

We had the pleasure of meeting Governor Gretchen Whitmer, who was honored at Metro Detroit Youth Day. Not only did she give an inspiring speech, she also told us how Detroit inspires her – check out her video.
