This past Friday, 35 student members of the American Marketing Association of Grand Valley saddled up and rode out to the Motor City to tour Joe Louis Arena, Team Detroit, Carat Media, and the Detroit Beer Company.

Using the hashtag #AMADoesDetroit, members were encouraged to live tweet and upload photos to Instagram to document the adventure.
Our first stop was Joe Louis Arena, home of the Detroit Red Wings hockey team. Members were given personal tours of the "forgotten" press box, zamboni gate, super suites, fifth floor storehouse, and even the Legends Club. We even met the Red Wings' marketing managers and asked them questions!

After the Joe Louis Arena tour, members enjoyed lunch at Hockeytown Cafe, in the heart of downtown on Woodward Avenue, across from Comerica Park and next to the historic Fox Theater.

After lunch, members split up to attend the final tours of the day. At each tour, members learned about each individual company's marketing strategy, business plan, as well as potential internship opportunities for students. It was an exhausting but educational day of networking, marketing, and fun!
