The Strategic Partners, Inc. team is proud to have coordinated a partnership between two of our clients, Yankee Air Museum of Willow Run, MI and Canterbury-on-the-Lake of Waterford, MI. These two wonderful organizations collaborated on a special project - the Detroit's Greatest Generation flyover at Comerica Park on September 16th.

           

While the world was readying to watch the Detroit Tigers honor the great Ernie Harwell, two of our clients were taking part in a tribute for Detroit, Our Greatest Generation.  Coordinated with the speech by Mr. Harwell, one of Detroit's very own members of the Greatest Generation, several residents of Canterbury-on-the-Lake and other WWII veterans and family members were aboard the B-17, Yankee Lady, that made a flyover at Comerica Park. The “honorary flight crew” included a retired military pilot who said, "the only way to make the evening better would have been to be sitting in the pilot's seat". The many details involved in preparing for this event included obtaining special clearances from the FAA and TSA.  It was an exciting event and we were proud to be a part of making it happen.
