ASAE Media Tour
ASAE allowed a special tour for media relations to kick off the conference. Our media group was guided tour around Detroit by Show Me Detroit Tours with stops at Shinola and Traffic Jam & snug. We enjoyed a toast of wine / beer / drinks — followed by a narrative bus tour around the city.
It was an event packed evening by jumping from one venue to the next. Following the ASAE Media Tour, our team followed with a reception at 42 Degrees North inside the Detroit Marriot.
