Bill Clinton to fund-raise for Hillary in Michigan
Source: Freep
Former president Bill Clinton will be the keynote speaker next month at a major fundraiser in Michigan for his wife Hillary Clinton’s presidential run, according to invitations going out to prominent Democrats.
Invitations say the former president will be the “special guest” at an Oct. 7 reception, 2-4 p.m., at the Bingham Farms home of Doreen Hermelin, whose late husband David Hermelin served under Bill Clinton as ambassador to Norway before his death in 2000.
Tickets to the event are $500 apiece, but those who pay $2,700 can arrange for a photo taken with the former president, and those who pay $10,000 will be honored as co-hosts at a special “host reception."
Invitations don’t give the address of the Hemelin home, but the on-line real-estate service Radaris Property Search lists it as a 17,000-square-foot mansion on 15 acres. David Hermelin became wealthy as the developer of shopping centers and apartment buildings nationwide, ultimately becoming co-owner of the Palace of Auburn Hills, where the Detroit Pistons play, and co-owner of Pine Knob Music Theater, according to his Free Press obituary. He died at 63 of brain cancer.
