OLIVET, Mich. – The Olivet College football program along with Buffalo Wild Wings is proud to present, Eric Thomas, one of the country's most dynamic motivational speakers, at The Cutler Event Center on Tuesday, April 16, 2013, at 7 p.m.
Eric Thomas will deliver a high energy message that tells youth through firsthand experience how to live up to their full potential and greatness by breaking the cycles of crime, hopelessness and despair that many face daily. Known for his engagingly personal approach, his messages are both dynamic and inspiring. When coupled with his own "Cycle-Breaking" experience his blunt essays on reality and remarkable ability to reach even the most jaded of minds, has helped thousands of youth nationwide become peak performers academically, spiritually and personally. Eric Thomas has electrified audience's ranging from Fortune 500 companies to urban educators, college football programs and inner-city youth development agencies with the message of his own life's struggles and the principles, insights and strategies he used to overcome them. Eric Thomas is no stranger to the ills that plague our communities as he was born in Chicago, Ill., and raised on the streets of Detroit. His childhood and adolescent years were difficult, and his life struggles and personal identity issues were intensified because like so many, he did not establish a relationship with his biological father until his early thirties.
