Ice Report

While most of the world is enjoying spring I get to report that the ice is mostly off Lake Bemidji today. With a little wind today we should have an official "ice out" by tonight or tomorrow. It just doesn't really look like spring in the north woods until the lakes are liquid and not solid ice. We made it.

The Seasons Change

It is damp and cool in Bemidji, but once the sun breaks out things should really start greening up. The golf course opened this weekend. The snow is gone. It has been a long winter, but it is now safe to say spring is here. Congratulations to all of us for making it......and now enjoy everything we wait for all winter long. Think spring, and get mentally prepared for summer!

Game Day

OK....game day is here. I only wanted to say I don't think I have ever seen Bemidji as excited about anything. I really believe everyone in town will be in front of a TV somewhere at 4:00. A total cross section of our town...everyone is in a ""Go Beavers" state of mind. It's great.

Vintage Patterson's

When you visit Patterson's in Bemidji you're supporting a local business that's been a part of the Bemidji scene for four generations. The Bemidji Pioneer did a nice story on us as we approached our 75th anniversary a few years back.

The Patterson's crew, three generations at the counter!

Abe Patterson, the store's founder, on another snowy Bemidji day.From the article:

'...Steve remembered his grandfather talking about lumberjacks who would come into town to celebrate on the Fourth of July. His grandfather would keep the store open all night and sell the partying lumbermen suits...'

See, Patterson's really has been keeping Bemidji looking good since before you were born!

Bemidji State on a roll!

Bemidji's Beavers are on a roll in collegiate hockey after pulling off a huge upset of Notre Dame yesterday. Check it out, from the Associated Press:

Visiting Bemidji?


In no time we'll be watching the lake ice go out here in Bemidji and the lush green of summer will begin to appear. The home of Paul Bunyan has been a favorite summer vacation spot for years and 2009 will be no different. In fact, with today's world there are few places better or more economical than spending a vacation on Lake Bemidji. If you're thinking of visiting, here are a few places worth checking out.

Ruttger's Birchmont Lodge has been in business for over 100 years on the north end of the lake. Check out their website and think about staying at this historic spot, and don't forget to swing by Patterson's for the latest in swimwear and summer fashions!

Bemidji's Chamber of Commerce. This is where to get information on fun upcoming events in the Bemidji area. Check out their calender of events, two webcams, or their attractions guide!

Hard to spend much time on a great lake without thinking about fishing, and Bemidji has some awesome angling. Check out Visit Bemidji's fishing guide, and don't forget to check the conditions via local master Paul Nelson's excellent lake report at Tabor's Bait! If you're really lucky you can hire Mr. Nelson to show you the best spots!

There aren't many places better to check out the lakefront than from beautiful Bemidji State's campus, especially from the recently redone Diamond Point Park.

Want to check out the latest news from Bemidji? Surf on over the the Bemidji Pioneer's site for all the latest happenings. (the Pionner is also on twitter, follow them here!)

Fancy a round of golf while your lakeside? Bemidji has a superb course on the north end of the lake just down the road from Ruttger's. This club has it all, from long Norway pine lined fairways to beautiful lakefront views. Rated 4 stars by Golf Digest!

Last but not least, and perhaps Bemidji's most well known attraction, Itasca State Park, the headwaters of the mighty Mississippi. Don't forget to check out this amazing spot in the woods where you can walk across America's most famous river, right where it starts!
