YPSILANTI, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) — The Eastern Michigan University football program will hold its annual Youth Day on Saturday, Aug. 12, from 11:15 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. inside Rynearson Stadium. The opportunity is designed for youth to connect with members of the 2017 football team while also being able to participate in drills.
The team will go through a busy Saturday schedule at "The Factory". EMU will practice in the morning before hosting Youth Day which is designed for children in kindergarten through sixth grade. The event is open to the public and there is no admission charge. Please RSVP in advance to Jason Daniels by sending an e-mail to jdanie34@emich.edu.
Kids will have the opportunity to come down onto the gray turf and experience the joy of running around in a safe, fun environment, while learning a few things about the game of football. EMU players will be interacting and encouraging their new friends throughout the event.
Youth Day is an event that was introduced by Head Coach Chris Creighton back in 1997 when he first arrived at Ottawa University. Its purpose is to give area children an opportunity to visit with the Eagles' student-athletes while enjoying football-related fun and games.
