Biographical / Historical

Discover Duluth, Inc. was established in 1973 after discussions among the principal orgainizers took place in 1970. A non-profit organization of volunteers whose stated task was to “identify and improve, or restore, and promote all points of general and historic significance and natural beauty in the Duluth area, and to initiate activities compatible with promoting value of the area.” The major result was a tour bus in cooperation with the Duluth Transit Authority. The organization disbanded in 1988, but activity lessened considerably in the early 1980’s.
