Share the Love

Throughout the month of February, the Albert Lea Convention and Visitors Bureau will have a “Share the Love” campaign for the community. It’s your chance to recognize and acknowledge the places, people and things you love about Albert Lea. Share the love for your community, share the love for the historic downtown, share the love to social media. The goal is to cover the community with love. Cut out heart shapes from paper, cardstock or thin foam. Be sure to include a personal message. For more information or to get involved, visit the Convention and Visitor Facebook page. The campaign will be under events.
