Sharpeners in MI?

I live in an area not so rich with skaters or skating, but I'm going to Michigan to visit a friend later this month. I've seen a lot of people from Michigan posting on this board, and I was wondering if you could direct me to a good skate-sharpener in the metro-Detroit area.

If you have his or her phone number or contact information, that would be really great, too.

Thanks!

There is Fred at the DSC. He does a lot of famous skater. I get my skates done by him and I think that he is the best in Michigan.

I was going to second on Fred. If you are in Grand Rapids, there's a guy in the Walker suburbs named Andy Anderson who can fix you up in a matter of minutes.

Boy mel the world sure is a small place. Im going to have to second Andy. He sharpens my skates and does a wonderful job. Roseline if you would like Andy's phone number just let me know.

I vote Mike at Podium. He does a great job. I used to drive down once a month until my coach took up sharpening.
