The morning of Day 3 featured visits in the Hurley-Ironwood-Bessemer area of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, with an initial visit at Hurley School in Hurley, Wis. Students from kindergarten through high school were expecting a speaker at an assembly, but were pleasantly surprised by the Tailgate Tour bus.
The students split into groups with a Play 60 activity set for the younger students and an assembly for the others. After presenting school administrators with a check for $2,000, Mark Murphy and the players spoke to the students about perseverance and teamwork, with Ahman Green sharing his challenge of having to learn new offenses upon being drafted into the NFL and then getting a new coach.
