Mailbag - Letter from Matt Kramer at the Dept. of Emp & Econ. Development
Dear Landmark Creations,
I really enjoyed my visit to your company a few weeks ago. When the kayak arrived in the mail I wasted no time in blowing up (thanks for the breathing exercise!) and now have it sitting on a shelf in my office. You can imagine that a bright yellow kayak generates some conversation, so I have told the story of your company about 100 times since the kayak arrived. If I can help steer business your way, I'm happy to do so! Enjoy the attached picture and again, thank you for being a Minnesota employer.
With best regards,
Matt Kramer
Commissioner
Department of Employment and Economic Development
Wishing You Success,
Stephanie Meacham
VP of Operations
