Dow Diamond Hosting 'Mid-Michigan's Got Talent'
Great Lakes Loons Seeking Skilled Entertainers to Perform at Ballpark in 2010
The Great Lakes Loons are hoping to uncover some of the most talented individuals in the region on Saturday, February 13 from 9AM until noon in the second annual "Mid-Michigan's Got Talent." Top qualifiers in the event will be invited to showcase their skills during a Loons' home game during the 2010 season.
"Our region is fortunate to have so many talented individuals," said Chris Mundhenk, Loons Vice President of Marketing and Entertainment. "Last year's event produced many new performers at Dow Diamond and we hope the same will hold true with this year's event."
The Loons are seeking entertainers to perform the national anthem before home games, plus talented jugglers, magicians, caricature artists, one-man bands, and people with any other skill that could be considered entertaining.
Along with Mundhenk, Assistant General Manager of Production and Entertainment Chris Lones and Director of Promotions Linda Uliano will serve as judges for the talent show, which will take place in the Dow Diamond Suite Lobby.
"As we always say during Loons home games, 'Leave your nerves at home,'" Uliano said. "In our first three seasons, we have had tremendously talented stadium entertainers and national anthem performers, and we hope 'Mid-Michigan's Got Talent' will produce even more quality entertainment options for our fans."
National anthem singers must perform a capella. Because of space and time constraints, bands are asked to mail or drop off a demo tape, CD or DVD to Linda Uliano, c/o Dow Diamond, 825 E. Main St., Midland, MI 48640. Interested entertainers who are unable to participate in "Mid-Michigan's Got Talent" may also send in a demo in lieu of attending the February 13 event.
All interested participants must pre-register with Linda Uliano at [email protected] or 989-837-6140.
