Anchor Tours at NCAA Div II Championship
Long-time Shoals-based business, Anchor Tours is pleased to be the official transportation sponsor of the NCAA Division II Championships being played in Florence, AL. The competing teams are Grand Valley State and Northwest Missouri State and they will meet up on Saturday at Braly Municipal Stadium, the home field of the University of Northern Alabama (UNA). The events kick off (no pun intended) this evening, 12/10, with an informal supper, leading to a breakfast of locals and those in the know at a favorite area haunt in the morning (including chocolate gravy), a VIP/Sponsors lunch on Friday, and the Harlon Hill Supper Friday night. This special evening event includes the induction of former Savannah State standout, and current CBS NFL Today football analyst, Shannon Sharpe into the Division II Hall of Fame. The teams are in town practicing, strategizing and basking in the excitement. They are being transported about town aboard the Anchor Tours motorcoaches. NCAA dignitaries, coach spouses and other event VIPs can also be seen riding the Anchor Tours Executive Coach. All activities culminate in the nationally-televised championship game on Saturday. What a great time to be here in Florence, AL!
