Ely 2016 Summer Olympics - Launch Press Conference

What started as nothing more than a dream is closer to reality as we continue our quest to host the 2016 Summer Olympics. Some have doubted our readiness, but we can assure folks that between the Boundary Waters Blues Festival and the fishing opener, we are more than capable of handling millions of people. Our planning committee is busy working and they continue to update all our supporters through Twitter, Facebook and our blog.
