The Motor City Mechanics are hosting a celebration of the Red White and Blue this Saturday Night, November 12th at the Garage when we play the Missouri River Otters at 7:30.

The Mechanics will be wearing special Red, White and Blue Jerseys to be auctioned off after the game to benefit the Michigan Veterans Foundation. There will also be live pregame and post game music provided by the band Backhand.

Representatives from various veterans organizations and active duty military will be on hand to help the Mechanics celebrate and remember our Veterans. A special pre-game on ice ceremony will take place at 7:30pm. The National Anthem will be performed by Senior Airman James Donaldson, a member of the 127th Wing, Michigan Air National Guard, Selfridge. All Military personnel with ID may purchase tickets to the game for half price. Tickets are on sale at the Garage box office (34400 Utica Road, Fraser,) and Ticketmaster.
