Allamakee County Economic Development and Tourism Commission is proud to announce that Waukon Harley Davidson has been selected as the Grand Prize winner! ACED will be providing a billboard in the Minneapolis/St. Paul Metropolitan area this spring/summer promoting trips to Northeast Iowa and Allamakee County. 

We had several entries and it was extremely difficult to pick just one Grand Prize Winner. It was so difficult, that ACED decided to provide a Runner Up Award to the City of New Albin. ACED will be purchasing a billboard in the La Crosse region to promote the housing, quality of life and decorated schools in Allamakee County. Keep your eyes open for a preview of the City's billboard.

This contest was open to all ACED members, including municipalities, utilities and business entities.  ACED is exploring making the contest an annual event. Become an ACED member today to become eligible for next year's contest!
