GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. - 13 ON YOUR SIDE Morning News Anchor, Dan Harland, is announcing he is leaving the station to start a new career in real estate. He’s joining Keller Williams East in Grand Rapids.
Harland says he’s ready to try something new. “After 15 years here at 13 ON YOUR SIDE as a news and sports anchor covering all of West Michigan, I feel I know our area as well as anyone and that knowledge will help me in my new career in real estate,” said Harland. “I look forward to helping home buyers and sellers reach their goals and dreams, and I’ll do it with the professionalism (and fun) that you’ve seen each morning on TV but now on a much more personal level.”
“Dan has enthusiastically covered the fiercest high school football rivalries and some of the biggest sporting events across the country,” said Janet Mason, 13 ON YOUR SIDE President & General Manager. “We wish him much success as he brings his love of sports and West Michigan to the next chapter of his life.”
“I’ve spent so many Friday nights on the sidelines at high school football games and getting to know our communities,” said Harland. “I’ve lived out some of my dreams here, from covering the Super Bowl, the Final Four, and so many great moments in between. I feel so extremely fortunate to have had the opportunity to work here. I love West Michigan. My wife and I met here, and this is the place where I want to raise our son, Brett. This is such a great place to live, and I want to help others here in this special place.”
Dan’s last day is Nov. 2, so please join us that morning as we relive his most memorable moments, say goodbye and wish him the best.
