NLEA's Catalyst Conversations Events - Feb 11th

---

Register today for the Northern Lakes Economic Alliance’s first Catalyst Conversations event in Indian River! The event will convene local leaders to explore the regional outdoor recreation industry. In 2023, Michigan’s outdoor industry generated $13.9 billion in GDP. The industry represents more than just tourism, it includes the individuals and businesses designing, developing, and delivering the tools and gear of the great outdoors. Brad Garmon (Michigan Office of Outdoor Recreation Industry), Bob Murdock (Howe Marine), Jeff Thompson (Shaggy's Copper Country Skis and Thompson Pickleball), and Jennifer Dowker (Nautical North Family Adventures) will explore the challenges and opportunities for the outdoor industry in Northern Lower Michigan. The event will be hosted at the Cheboygan-Otsego-Presque Isle ESD Building at 6065 Learning Lane Indian River, MI 49749. Morning refreshments will be provided.
