Former Olympic gold medalist Kristi Yamaguchi will be signing autographs at FanFest in River Park Square on Saturday, according to the official Twitter voice of the 2010 U.S. Figure Skating Championships.

Yamaguchi, who won gold at the 1992 Olympics as well as two world championships (1991,1992) and the 1992 U.S. championship, will be at the mall from 3:30 to 4 p.m. Saturday, according to event officials.
