Brainerd Lakes Tourism Summit

The Second Annual Brainerd Lakes Tourism Summit will be held Wednesday in Cross Lake. Tom Kavanaugh, Chairman of the Tourism Advisory Committee tells KLKS News, the recession has had a negative impact on the industry and the length of the prime season. But, he says their bookings are where they would expect them to be, and things are looking pretty good.

Kavanaugh says they have had to make a lot of marketing changes to deal with the challenging year.

The Tourism summit is open to the public, however there is a fee to attend.
