Last summer, Gillespie rented a boat for a week in order to give people tours of the Grand River in downtown Lansing. He wanted to draw attention to the river and expose its many assets. More than 550 people took the tour and long after the boat had departed Lansing's waterways, people were still requesting to have the experience. It was clear there was a need that wasn't being met, and Gillespie set out to find just the right people to run with his vision; thus, the idea for Lansing Metro Marinas was born.
