STATE CAPITAL FOR A DAY

Baxter, Deerwood, Pequot Lakes or even Breezy Point could become an honorary state capital for a day next year, and all you have to do is nominate your favorite city and then convince lots of people to go online and vote. Walker lawmaker Larry Howes said the promotion is part of next year's sesquitennial celebration; Minnesota became a state 150 years ago, in 1858. Vote counters will name five cities to represent the state's biomes or distinct geographic and environmental regions. Go online to www.mn150years.org by November 7th to nominate your city. Online voting takes place from November 11-24th. The winners will be announced during the week after Thanksgiving.
