During the final prep weeks for the 49th Annual Grandma’s Marathon weekend, I sat down with Executive Director Shane Bauer to talk about this signature Duluth event, its economic impact on the region, and his outstanding volunteer network.  We also talk about his path to this job and what motivated him to become a Duluthian.

A conversation with Matt Staehling
In this first episode I had a great chat with our new City Administrator, Matt Staehling. You get a chance to learn more about Matt, and what drew him to this role after nearly 30 years in St. Cloud. We talk about his first weeks on the job and his first takes as a new Duluthian. We also dive into that all-important topic: the difference between the roles of Mayor and City Administrator.Â
Each month City of Duluth Mayor Roger Reinert sits down with people creating local signature events, area nonprofits doing amazing work in our community, inspiring Duluthians, and City of Duluth staff who make the things you care about happen.
