Featured Wolverines

 

Ricky Powers is a former running back and co-captain of the Michigan Wolverines. He now coaches football at Buchtel High School in Akron, Ohio. Coach Powers has brought the legacy of Michigan football to help mold young men in a tough area.  For more about his remarkable story see: http://espn.go.com/colleges/michigan/story/_/id/7328007/ricky-powers-instills-lessons-learned-michigan-wolverines

We will be regularly updating other M Letterwinner stories.  Be sure to share yours with us.

 

 

 

 

 

Wolverine Fans

 While you might get your picture on the Jumbotron, is that all you really want to share as a fan?  We will have featured fans starting next week.  Register to have a chance to share your love of Michigan and your Wolverine memories.

 

Wolverines in the Military

Coach Hoke brought strong ties to the Navy Seals with him from San Diego, and Go Blue T&N furthers this support of our service men and women. We will have a featured person or unit every week, and please share this message to those overseas. For more on the Hoke-Seals connection, visit: http://www.annarbor.com/sports/um-football/michigan-football-team-travels-to-west-coast-for-leadership-training-with-us-navy-seals/

Wolverine Pets

We don’t know whose sweet pea this is, but if she is yours please let us know! As part of our new look, all those registered on our site will be able to submit pictures of their 4-legged loved ones for a chance to be the featured pet!

Upcoming Events

Next up on the charitable scene will be a post regular season invitation only event.  When and where will be determined by Team 133 on the field.  We have many venues covered.

Looking forward to 2013 – The Chris Perry Family Foundation will be hosting a golf tournament in the Los Angeles area.  Details are being worked out and will be made available shortly.

Team 134 Coaches men’s camp June 6 and 7

 

Go Blue Then and Now purchased a spot at the Michigan Men’s Football Experience ($2,500 value) to help spread word about the event through social media.

In order to help Coach Hoke and the team 134 coaches fill up the few remaining spots in the 2013 camp, please share this with your Wolverine friends.

I have attended this camp twice and it is not possible to describe in words or pictures the wonderful learning experience and insight into Michigan football that this camp provides.

While we are giving away a spot, our hope is that the social media network will spread the word to some who might wish to buy one of the spots on the team that remain.

For complete information on the camp and to register got to:

http://uofmfootballexperience.umich.edu/

To qualify to win the spot Go Blue Then and Now is giving away all you need to do is like us on FB and make a comment under the post for this link.  We are hopeful that in addition you will share this link on your page and invite some of your loyal Michigan friends to “like” our FB page too.

The winner will be selected on Sunday morning June 2nd at noon ET.  The winner will be chosen at random from all those who comment on the FB post.  Anyone can win the slot, however, the person who attends camp must be an adult male (the Coaches do a separate women’s camp, so this one is men only).  We will post the name of the winner at noon ET and send them a FB message.  The winner will then have 3 hours to contact us.  Should the winner fail to contact us, we will pick a new winner at 3 and continue on until we find someone who confirms with us.
