MINNEAPOLIS — The Map of 10,000 Stories is a new place for KARE 11 viewers to tell us about significant people, places, memories and Minnesota-isms that helped shape who they are today.
TL;DR: It's a collection of Minnesota stories — told by Minnesotans.
This year at the State Fair, we're asking folks to share stories about their "Minnesota happy place" — and what makes it so — to help participants foster a deeper understanding of each other, and form stronger connections within the community.
PLUS — contributors 18 and older can also enter a drawing to win a one-night, stay-and-play package at Mystic Lake Casino Hotel, valued at $300.
If you'd like to spread the joy about your Minnesota happy place, visit us between Aug. 22 and Sept. 2 at the KARE 11 Barn, or click "Put yourself on the map now!" below.
