Local firefighter finalist in weight-loss contest
Date: March 13, 2013
by: Pam Eubanks | Managing Editor
Lakewood Ranch Business owner and East Manatee Rescue fireman Joe Griffith has dropped 50 pounds in 90 days — a feat that has landed him on Body by Vi's semi-finalist list in its 90 Day Challenge competition.
But Griffith still needs the help and friends and neighbors to be chosen as the contest's top male weight loss contestant. Individuals can vote at challenge.com/browse/finalists until 11:59 Pacific Standard Time March 14.
