Made in MN Bigger and Better in 2nd Year

ST. CLOUD -- It's all about Minnesota business pride at the second annual Made in Minnesota Expo, held tomorrow (Saturday) in St. Cloud.

The free event features over 100 booths of Minnesota vendors, along with games, prizes, trivia and free samples of hotdish.

Event coordinator Vicky Prom-Becker says she expects this year's expo to build on a successful first year.

"We have more vendors this year and it's really just a lot of fun, everybody had such a great time last year," Prom-Becker says. "It's really been fun because we really try to give the fun Minnesota feel to it."

"It's a great time to do your holiday shopping or to just get some things for yourself and see all the great businesses that are either based in Minnesota or make their products in Minnesota."

"It's a great opportunity to find some unique gifts that you might not be able to find anywhere else."

The expo runs from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at the River's Edge Convention Center.
