Quite a day to be a resident of Michigan’s U.P.- a visit from our nations President had nearly everyone here in Marquette County grinning from ear to ear.  I was invited to attend the very small event by Senator Stabenow’s office, who I worked closely with during my visit to Washington DC last year on the Asian Carp issue.  It was outstanding to be able to participate in the event and welcome President Obama to the Upper Peninsula.  Many thanks go out to Sen. Stabenow & her staff-this will will a lifelong memory that I greatly appreciate.  I look forward to working with you to help keep our Great Lakes safe from invasive species such as the Asian Carp.

A proud day for NMU alumni, students, staff & the community-thanks for visiting Mr. President!
