The West Side
MichAGAIN event on Thanksgiving Eve in Grand Rapids was an amazing
success. There were 110 Michiganders who came together and celebrated all
that is great about our state. Of the attendees, 26 were from other states and
4 were from other cities in Michigan. The venue (the BoB) provided an open
space with a great view of downtown Grand Rapids. The room was a buzz and
everyone was focused on networking with one another. With about 43 leads
generated from the total registrants, we are looking forward to assisting this
great talent make their way back to MichAGAIN!
