The flash mob's message - remind people about the importance of choosing friendship over bullying. The impromptu performance ended with presents and the girls shouting out "Choose Friendship." The presents, which included My Friendship Bracelet Makers, were handed out to lucky shoppers who were asked to give them to a special little girl or boy on their list, or to pay it forward and donate to a less fortunate child by dropping off at the Baldwin Center box located at the Updog Yoga Studio between the Gap and Children's Place on Village Main.

The flash mob was organized by Crorey Creations, a Clinton Township company that produces award winning toys, including My Friendship Bracelet Maker and My Ribbon Barrette Maker.
