Low bar to be a celebrity in Grand Rapids

metsguyinmichigan Jan 23 2011 11:22 AM

The Grand Rapids Griffins, the Detroit Red Wings' minor league team, has an annual "Great Skate" fundraiser where players skate in shifts for 24 hours, and fans and well-wishers join them. For the last two years I've been asked to be a "celebrity skater" in the media division, which, well, means that the bar to be a celebrity in Grand Rapids is set pretty low. But, it's a good, tax-deductible cause. And the Grifins are nice people who do a lot in the community. If you'd like to donate, here's my page. Anything is very much appreciated. Thank you!
