In addition to his business accomplishments, Antonini has served on the Junior Achievement Leadership Circle, the Advisory Council for Wedgwood Christian Services, the Old Kent Financial Corporation Board and the Cornerstone University Board of Directors, and he has been involved with the Mackinac Center for Public Policy.
