The Brighton Meijer's will play host to a special guest on May 24 as they welcome 1984 Olympic track and field silver medalist Judi Brown-Clark.
The former Olympic hurdler will be on site from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. helping to promote and register participants and volunteers for the 2013 Meijer State Games of Michigan, an Olympic-style event that will be held June 21-23 in Grand Rapids.
The Meijer State Games of Michigan is a Michigan Governor?s Council on Physical Fitness endorsed event, according to a press release that Michigan Lt. Governor Brian Calley also recognized the signature event of the West Michigan Sports Commission as the official State Games of Michigan.
?The Meijer State Games of Michigan play a critical role in promoting health and wellness in our state,? Calley said in the press release. ?As the official state games of Michigan, the event brings people together from across the state in the spirit of friendly competition and fitness. The games help demonstrate our commitment to physical fitness and improving our overall quality of life, which are fundamental to the reinvention of Michigan.?
In 2012, the Meijer State Games of Michigan drew nearly 5,800 athletes from 72 of the state?s 83 counties to West Michigan to compete in 31 sporting events, according to the press release.?
