Official Openings Planned


Plans are in the works for an official opening of the Hallet and former fire-tower on the Fort Frances waterfront.

Museum curator Pam Cain says the week of June 3rd which is designated "Tourism Week" has been targeted, but are looking ideas to complement the week.

"We're looking for people to come on board," says Cain. "We've had the phase development committee that's been involved with the project since 2004 are putting forward their input, but other people who are interested in doing some of the events is something we want to have happen."

Among events planned will be the annual tug-of-war between the town of Fort Frances and the city of International Falls.
