The Portage Health
Sports Medicine Institute and
Michigan Tech Athletics are proud to present Portage Health Family Day on Saturday, Sept. 24 as the
football Huskies take on the University of Indianapolis. Kickoff is at 1 p.m. at Sherman Field in Houghton.
Portage Health will have a tent at the main entrance, where everyone will have a chance to enter a drawing for a team-autographed helmet or football. Winners will be announced at halftime.
Free MTU football posters will be available at the Portage Health tent during the fourth quarter and immediately following the game for the first 500 kids. They will be able to join the huskies on the field after the game for players to sign the posters.
Portage Health Family Day will be held in conjunction with Youth Jersey Day. All kids age 3 through 12th grade will receive free admission for wearing
any sports jersey. The Blizzard Kids Race will also take place at halftime for children 10 and under, and is sponsored by Dairy Queen – participants will receive a coupon for a free ice cream cone.
