(Spencer)– A new video series highlighting life in various communities throughout Minnesota and Iowa is about to make its debut. Titled “My Town”, the YouTube and Facebook series highlights life in rural towns in Minnesota and Iowa. It’s produced by Twin Cities journalist Cory Hepola.
The first season features a piece on Buena Vista, Clay, Dickinson and Emmet counties and was done as a collaborative effort with the Iowa Lakes Corridor Development Corporation. Alyssa Petersen, Coordinator of Administration and Communication for the Corridor, says even though it hasn’t made its debut yet, the series is already getting some special recognition…
Corridor President and CEO Curt Strouth says the video will serve as an important tool for workforce recruitment in the region.
