Speed skater Groves gets interest from Yoko Ono in “bed-in for sustainability”
CALGARY — A “bed-in for sustainability” by speed skater Kristina Groves has drawn the attention of Yoko Ono, the originator of the protest-in-a-bed concept with late husband and Beatles member, John Lennon.Groves received an email from Ono prior to Friday’s bed-in at a downtown Calgary bed boutique. Groves, a winner of four Olympic medals, entertained civic leaders and politicians in a bed and discussed ways to make the city more environmentally sustainabOno and Lennon held two-week bed-ins in 1969 in both Amsterdam and Montreal to promote peace. They invited the world’s press to join them. Groves was stunned to receive a message from Ono.“Kristina, congratulations for your courage and wisdom, I love you, exclamation point,” Groves said incredulously while reading from her cellphone. “I wasn’t even born when they did that. To get that was really cool.”
