[Winona Online Democracy]Some great stuff is coming down the road, or 'up the river' for Winona county. Things like the Great River Shakespeare Festival to start in summer '04, the Grand Excursion flotilla of riverboats up the Mississippi also in summer of '04, the possible Globe project that, if successful, will make us Earth Station Alpha for a NASA educational project, and more. There are many opportunities for businesses, schools, churches, volunteers, interest groups, and government to thrive with these activities.
As people who like to take part in shaping your own destinies (hence involvement in experiments like e-democracy), what concerns do you have about seeing tens of thousands of people streaming into the area for these events? Do you think we're prepared for it? Are you concerned about a possible increase in crime (although normally you don't associate pilgrims to a Shakespeare production with hardened criminals, I suppose greater numbers do attract greater risk...)?
