If anyone can find a better image or logo, feel free to replace the one that I just put up for the CVB. I know it is too small. --MatthewUND 05:42, Jun 22, 2005 (UTC)

Are you sure Nelson County should be considered as part of the Greater Grand Forks area? TRBUFF 22:27, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

I think it would be a good idea, MatthewUND, if you could cite some sources as what is the "Greater Grand Forks" area. From what I've heard, it's basically the cities of Grand Forks and East Grand Forks. If you want to say it's the two counties defined in the Census Bureau's current definition of the Grand Forks-East Grand Forks, ND-MN Metropolitan Statistical Area, that's fine too. However, I think the additional counties listed (lighter red and the orange) are pushing it... You could even say that three of those counties on the bottom might even belong even more with the Fargo-Moorhead Metropolitan Area since it has more influence, for example...

Also, when you get to the eastern edge of Polk County, you're getting more in the influence of Bemidji.--RLent (talk) 18:41, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
