The World is Finding out Just How Great Northern Minnesota Really Is...

If you live in northern Minnesota or have a cabin here, it's sometimes hard to explain how great it is.  Maybe it's because we don't always WANT people to know how great it is.  Cause part of the appeal is that we aren't FILLED with people.  And we do cool things like meat raffles and dragon boat festivals and bean-burying festivals.  Budget Travel has just put together an article called "8 Perfect Summer Lake Towns" which includes Bemidji.  They had this to say, "The Minnesota town of Bemidji best captures the Norman Rockwell glow of a summer lake town, with clean beaches, quirky annual traditions, and a packed social calendar." 

What's your favorite summertime town in northern Minnesota?  I love going to Arts in the Park in Brainerd over the 4th of July.  Don't ask me why, it's just a long time tradition.  Send us your summertime traditions!  comments@kaxe.org.
