Traveling the Old North Shore – Downtown Grand Marais
Downtown Grand Marais has had many changes through the decades. Producer Martha Marnocha explores a bit of downtown history with help from two long-time residents: Butch Schulte and Sherrie Lindskog.
They share memories of when Santa visited the Shore Theater, North Shore Fish and Freight, Cherry’s Bakery, Jackson’s Cafe’ and other downtown businesses.
