Thanks WCCO

WCCO was in Alexandria for their ‘Goin’ to the Lake’ week and broadcast live from Arrowwood for the 5, 6 and 10 o’clock news. While they had a handful of facts about Alexandria wrong such as saying Alexandria’s Chain of Lakes was comprised of four lakes (the correct answer is 11: Carlos, Darling, Le Homme Dieu, Geneva, Victoria, Jessie, Cowdry, Taylor, Stony, North Union and Brophy), the publicity and enthusiasm they provided was very much appreciated. They visited Minnesota Lakes Maritime Museum and Gardens, Carlos Creek Winery, HanglooseMN, Big Ole and Casey’s Amusement Park.
