Last week’s Words from the Wise came from the Wisest of them
all, Mayor Don Ness. Fuse Duluth fans, with the support from Duluth Superior Area Community Foundation,
gathered in the sunshine at Wade Stadium to hear the Mayor’s take on Duluth’s
Great Outdoors, and to nosh on some tasty treats from Qdoba. Burritos, Baseball, and the Big Guy….a Duluth
trifecta!
Whether you’re new to Duluth or a lifer, odds are good that
you have some draw to the outdoors. With
Outside magazine choosing Duluth as the best place to live, how can you not
appreciate the vast array of opportunities that are available in our sunny city
on the hill?
Top on the Mayor’s list of exciting Duluth adventures were
the extension of the lakewalk through Lincoln Park, and the planned renovations
for Wade Stadium, our gracious host for the event. Mayor Ness also outlined the plans for the
Cyclists of Gitchee Gummi Shores’ (COGS) Duluth Traverse, a 40+ mile
single-track mountain bike trail that will span the entire length of the
city!
Unique opportunities like these are peppered throughout Duluth. Take Spirit Mountain, a year round experience
offering skiing, snowboarding, tubing, zip lining, mini golf, a roller coaster,
and gravity mountain bike trails, all just around the corner. Plans are also in the works to revamp Grand
Avenue to allow for easier access to the many opportunities in the St. Louis
River corridor including the Western Water Front Trail, the Munger Trail, and
the Lake Superior Zoo.
I encourage you to make the most of the summer weather, and
experience Duluth’s Great Outdoors. If
you’re not Duluth’s number one fan yet, you will be!
