Mizzou Ambassadors Official Announcement!

February 28, 2013 ~ Tonight was a pretty cool night for the Mizzou Ambassadors.... as a team, we walked down on the floor at half-time to be recognized at tonight's Women's Basketball game. A lot of people have seen us at the games but never really understood our role since we kicked off this new program for the University of Missouri Athletics Department on January 5, 2013 at the Men's Basketball game vs. Bucknell.

The core group of 18 Mizzou Ambassadors would simply greet our guests and fans at each of the home games for most of the 18 sports offered at the University of Missouri. With Missouri's addition into the SEC we wanted to make sure the atmosphere at home games were fun, exciting and welcoming. I am really proud of the dedication and support our Mizzou Ambassadors have shown and can't wait to see where we go into the future! (We love the support from the University of Missouri Athletic Department too! They are pretty awesome!)

The announcement said....

"The Mizzou Athletics Department would like to welcome the University of Missouri Athletics Department's newest program, the Mizzou Ambassadors! We are excited to unveil this newest division that supports our Missouri Tigers. With the University of Missouri being accepted into the Southeastern Conference on July 1, 2012 Mizzou Athletics wanted a way to bring our supporters, community members and alumni into a group of dedicated individuals that engages our visitors, guests and sports fans to the University of Missouri. Mizzou Ambassadors are an elite team of volunteers who are the "Welcoming Team" of Mizzou Athletics. You will see them at majority of all the home Mizzou Athletic events. The Mizzou Ambassadors are vital to the athletics department's success for the goal of sportsmanship by helping create a positive, lasting impression for any of our fans or guests who are attending our events. At this time we would like to recognize and thank each of them for dedicating their time to volunteer and be a part of the Mizzou Ambassadors!" 

(Not everyone could be here this evening to be a part of this recognition however we realize we are a team and we represented the entire team which was pretty awesome!)
