A food drive benefitting the Macomb County Food Program is planned at Freedom Hill leading up to the Motown Legends Concert featuring The Temptations and Four Tops on August 9, 2013.
Beginning Monday, August 5 through the day of the concert on Friday, August 9th, non-perishable food donations will be accepted at the Freedom Hill ticket office between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. All Freedom Hill Amphitheatre entrances will have bins at them for those that have already purchased tickets but still want to donate to this social cause.
Anyone who donates non-perishable food items will receive two (2) FREE lawn tickets to the August 9th Motown Legends concert.
Special thanks to the concert sponsors Art Van Furniture and Rush Trucking for stepping in to donate these FREE Lawn tickets.
"I want to thank Art Van, Rush Trucking and Freedom Hill for hosting this food drive," said Macomb County Executive Mark A. Hackel. "The Macomb County Food Program is one of our most valuable outreach programs. It's important that the facility receive donations all year long."
In addition to the free tickets at the time of the donation, participators can enter to win one special VIP Package which includes a Meet & Greet with both bands, pavilion seating upgrade and a pre-show meal in the D Las Vegas VIP Club served by the Andiamo Restaurant Group.
Founded in 1975 by the Macomb Inter-Agency Council, the Macomb County Food Program is a pantry distribution center located in Clinton Township, Mich. that serves 55 pantries throughout the county. The pantries distribute emergency food to those in need in Macomb County. Last year, approximately 56,000 Macomb County households consisting of more than 180,000 individuals requested emergency food assistance, a 20 percent increase over the previous fiscal year.
“Art Van Furniture, Rush Trucking & participating donors will be making an immediate impact in the lives of those in need throughout Macomb County," says Kevin Cassidy General Manager of Freedom Hill Amphitheatre. “Freedom Hill continues to strive to improve the Quality of Life in Macomb County and beyond. We plan on making this Food Drive an annual happening tied to one of our great shows such as this year's Temptations and Four Tops concert.”
Freedom Hill is located at 14900 Metropolitan Parkway in Sterling Heights. For details on the food drive, concert and other event information, visit www.freedomhill.net or call the box office at 586-268-9700.
