Joanna and Ken Warner, President of your Willmar Lakes Area Chamber of Commerce, sit down to relive the story of how the MinnWest Campus started...when it almost didn't. You're not going to want to miss this one.
It was 2005 and a group of business leaders had a vision for this community.
With jobs disappearing from the once-state owned healthcare facility, many thought the 100 acre property would continue to slip into disrepair and become an eyesore in Willmar...and it almost happened.
Businesses are the lifeblood of thriving communities and at the head of those businesses are entrepreneurial leaders with visions of a brighter future.
Grab a coffee and take a few minutes to hear the story of how the MinnWest Campus came to be.
