Mascots and Community

April 5, 2012Leave a Comment

George Mason University's Gunston mascot w/ kidsWhere does community spontaneously happen?

Where do we bump shoulders with strangers?

Where do we just get silly!

When we’re in the presence of a mascot, that’s where!

Where mascots are, community emerges, people gather.

It doesn’t take great talent, superior intellect or an educated eye to joke, to have fun and to pass the time of day in the presence of a mascot. When a mascot is around we have a reason to connect.

A mascot is the perfect, goofy and generous host.

While we may think a mascot is merely a marketing tool, really, a mascot is a hand extended in community.

Organizations that put in the long hours of imaginative, strategic planning, design collaboration and dollars into a mascot program is really holding out their hand in joy, trust and community.
