Ann Arbor is ready and so are we. Here is everything you need to know before you arrive — from the updated schedule and your attendee survey to a few extra things we’re excited to share. Read through, take action on anything you haven’t done yet, and get ready for an incredible few days.
Before you arrive

This is the most important thing you can do right now. Head to the Surveys section in the Whova app and complete your attendee survey. Your answers directly shape how we structure the room, the sessions, and the conversations. We want this to be as valuable as possible for you — but we need your input to make that happen.

We recommend a rideshare from DTW to The Vanguard.
Detroit Metropolitan Airport (DTW) is your closest airport. From there, grab an Uber or Lyft for a quick 20–30 minute ride directly to The Vanguard Ann Arbor at 201 Glen Ave, Ann Arbor, MI 48104. It’s the easiest and most direct option.
🧦 Athletic Sock Donation Drive
Bring a pair of socks for Girls on the Run.
The Ann Arbor Sports Commission is partnering with Girls on the Run Southeastern Michigan to collect athletic sock donations at all their events — and we’d love your help. Please bring youth/children size athletic socks (white or bright colors) to donate at the Summit.
Girls on the Run has fun, evidence-based programs that inspire participants to recognize their inner strength, increase their level of physical activity, and confidently stand up for themselves and others. Over 24,000 girls served in Southeastern Michigan since 2001. Questions? Contact Hannah Boss at hboss@annarbor.org.
