Get Rural, MN

Western Minnesota Prairie Waters is the five county tourism entity promoting our area.  Recently the Upper Minnesota River Valley Development Commission received a grant from the Blandin foundation to create a marketing project aimed more at recruitment and lifestyle in this same western Minnesota area.  The phase I meeting created a logo "Get Rural, MN".

This summer, interns visited community events in this area as well as downtowns, individual businesses and took some great photographs.  A drone was hired to take aerial shots of scenery and downtowns. 

Videos are being created of the area that will be available for businesses and towns to use on their websites.  A facebook page and instagram account was created.  The purpose is to create a better online presence for western Minnesota and showcase the entire area instead of each individual town.  Working together, we can promote our area and bring new employees and businesses!
