Annual Tailgating Event to Benefit HAVEN Returns to Birmingham

October is National Domestic Violence Awareness month, and the Detroit Lions and HAVEN, Oakland County's only comprehensive program for victims of domestic violence and sexual assault, are teaming up to make a difference.

Join team mascot Roary and former Lions fullback Cory Schlesinger for an authentic tailgating experience at the 5th annual Tailgate Party on Sunday, Oct. 15 at the Birmingham Athletic Club. The event will feature a BBQ buffet lunch, beer and wine, special liquor tastings, cigars, contests and silent and live auctions, as guests watch the Detroit Lions take on the New Orleans Saints on the big screen.  

Schlesinger, Greg Stange, executive chef at the Birmingham Athletic Club, and Amna Osman, president and CEO, for HAVEN visited the Fox2 Kitchen to provide a taste of the event.
