Brand Champion of the Day- Mike Dunafon, City of Glendale, CO
Glendale, Colorado is just a few blocks away from my home in Denver. Thanks to the efforts of City Councilman, Mike Dunafon, and others, Glendale is now home to Infinity Park, one of the world's largest rugby stadiums. In an attempt to re-brand the city of Glendale, Dunafon has brought rugby to our area. For that, Mike Dunafon is the Brand Champion of the Day.
I first became interested in rugby a few years ago when I was invited to Sydney, Australia, where I delivered a keynote address on educational branding. While there, I had an opportunity to watch "The Match' between Australia and New Zealand. I have been a fan ever since.
In the Rocky Mountain News, Dunafon said, "I just get excited about something if if seems fun and meaningful." I think Infinity Park has meaning for our area, and it is fun to recognize Mike as the Brand Champion of the Day.
Rex,
Thank you for your love of the game, and I am proud to be named a Brand Champion!
All the Best,
Mike Dunafon
