One of the goals that emerged from our most recent round of strategic planning sessions was to conduct visits with each of the East Range communities, as a complement to the ERJPB meetings that take place monthly. In recent weeks, all four meetings took place in Aurora, Biwabik, Hoyt Lakes, and the Town of White.
At each meeting, Northspan’s Shaun Hainey shared what’s been happening in the region, and covered the progress we’ve made on our strategic plan. Shaun also shared details on various initiatives that have taken place recently throughout the region to help connect people on the East Range.
The East Range Summit 2025 will take place on June 2 at Giants Ridge Chalet in Biwabik. Lunch is included in this free event, which will begin at 10 a.m. and conclude at 1 p.m. Join us for a panel discussion covering the topic of “Innovation on the East Range.” Keynote speaker Ben Winchester will address demographic trends in rural areas, as well as a new economic model emerging around “resident recruitment.” You can learn more about the summit in this flyer and RSVP through this registration link.
