Any one who has followed me on 8Asians knows I am a fan of Michelle Kwan. This past May, I blogged about her commencement speech that she gave in Vermont. Michelle is about to start her second year at the Fletcher School of International Relations at Tufts, but according to the LA Times, she’ll be in Los Angeles promoting:
2010 All That Skate LA
Saturday, October 2, 2010, 7:00PM
Sunday, October 3, 2010, 3:00PM
Other skaters also scheduled to appear include Vancouver gold medalist Kim Yuna of South Korea, Olympic ice dance champions Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir of Canada and pair champions Shen Xue and Zhao Hongbo of China.
The last time I saw Michelle skate was in San Jose some time ago, and the first time was at the 2002 Salt Lake City Winter Olympics for the figure skating short program, where she placed first (and ultimately would get the bronze after the long program two days later). I rarely make it to Los Angeles, so I am seriously thinking it might be worth it to visit some friends there that weekend.
