West Michigan Medical Marijuana Conference draws local vendors, residents to Frauenthal Center

West Michigan Medical Marijuana Conference draws local vendors, residents to Frauenthal Center | MLive.com:
"MUSKEGON, MI — Deven Halberda stood outside the Frauenthal Center for the Performing Arts waving at traffic and pedestrians while wearing a large, green costume.

The Spring Lake resident received different reactions from people because he was dressed as "Weedie" – a mascot for the first annual West Michigan Medical Marijuana Conference that runs from Friday, Nov. 7 to Sunday, Nov. 9.

"There were some people who walked up to me," Halberda said from inside the insulated costume. The outfit included five leafy points with ridged edges and two cartoonish eyes that were colored slightly red. "I got some not-so-good looks, but there have been a lot of good reactions with people giving me a thumb's up."
