SILVER BAY - As all-terrain vehicle riders traveled along a rocky, dusty trail on the edge of Silver Bay on Friday, they passed signs pointing to the city's AmericInn Lodge & Suites, a restaurant and other lodging.
Placement of the commercial signs among tall pine and birch trees might seem odd. But ATV recreation is big business.
Nearly 300 ATV riders are expected in Silver Bay this weekend for the All-Terrain Vehicle Association of Minnesota fall convention. As of Friday, more than 230 were pre-registered.
The Mayor talks about bringing money into the community, yet he and the Duluth Police along with other community leaders feel ATV's are evil. Duluth and the areas around don't allow for ATV use, or the use is very limetted.
Yet our Mayor believe is good policy to support a gay pride fest. Again as I have said many time I have nothing against the gay community, I don't believe however the city should sponsor this type of an event. Not only that but many things that happened this year were more the questionable.
If the city wants to have great events sponsor something like this ATV event.
