More Area Commitments To Marketing Plan

Another funding commitment to the Heart of the Continent's proposed marketing initiative involving the National Geographic Society.

The Koochiching Development Authority has approved $2,500 toward the effort.

A funding request to the town of Fort Frances has gone to the committee level for further discussion.

Proponents says the National Geographic Society involvement will help promote the area between the Fort Frances-International Falls, Thunder Bay and Duluth areas to a wide audience.
