Good afternoon and welcome to Chatabout!

On today’s show, we welcome foresters Ben Lang and Blair Olson from the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources to talk about spring fire reminders, flooding concerns, and other things to keep in mind as we recreate in our beautiful Northwoods!

As a reminder for late-season snowmobilers, keep in mind that grant-in-aid trails closed on March 31, and snowmobile trails on state lands will remain open as long as conditions allow!

On tomorrow’s show, we welcome back our pals from the Fun Department! City of Bemidji Parks Director Marcia Larson and Recreation Coordinator Jamie Anderson join us on Chatabout tomorrow, at about 12:15 p.m.

Our show today was brought to us by our friends at the Bemidji Chrysler Center, by the Beltrami Electric Cooperative, and by Higgins Heating, Air Conditioning & Refrigeration.

Thanks for tuning into Northern Minnesota’s Talk Show since 1956! Have a thrilling Thursday!
