Catalyst Content Festival: Day One Is Done and It Was Fun

You could not have asked for nicer weather for Duluth in October. We know there's less friendly weather greeting us soon, but Wednesday it was all smiles on the streets and into the balmy evening here.

It was great to see the small army of volunteers rallying to pitch in. Many hands make light work, and you are greatly appreciated, I am sure. If you'd like to help out, the Fest could use more volunteers Saturday and maybe Sunday. Here's the page where you can throw your hat in the ring: https://www.catalystcontent.org/volunteer

Rather than write descriptions of all that is happening I will just let pictures tell the story. I took lots and this was only the first hours of the event. (You'll find a full schedule of events on the Catalyst website.

If you see me, say hello.
