Stevens Point Woman behind "Aaron Rodgers Day"

A Stevens Point woman who created a Facebook group to honor Packers’ quarterback Aaron Rodgers by giving him a special day, will see her wish come true.

Both the Senate and the Assembly passed the resolution to declare Dec. 12, 2012, as Aaron Rodgers Day.

Last November, Jennifer Brilowski created a Facebook page called "Let's Make 12/12/12 Aaron Rodgers Day." She says it all started out as a joke.

During a December interview with NewsChannel 7, Brilowski said, "The Packers and Aaron Rodgers definitely have plenty of recognition, they're already appreciated, this isn't so much about making an actual day for him as it is just celebrating the fun it is to be Packers fan.”

She said she will use the page as a way to raise money for the MACC Foundation. The foundation uses funds to find a cure for childhood cancers, something Aaron Rodgers supports.

    It's a great idea! During trying economic times, things like Packers football give people something to hope for and reasons to celebrate.

    How about Aaron Rodgers can have a special day in her heart. Meanwhile my lawmakers, better steadfastly get Wisconsin in tip top financial shape. I love Aaron as much as the next gal, but presidence is presidence, and Rodgers is not one!
