Best of Thunder Bay 2019 Readers’ Survey – Voting
The Walleye on Instagram
![Why is @johnlaco smiling? He won our Best of Thunder Bay all-inclusive package for four, sponsored by @visitthunderbay and @porterairlines. Just for voting in our readers' survey, he's treating a local bestie and two out-of-town guests to TBay's best experiences, restaurants, and attractions.
And as for his favourite thing about Thunder Bay? “What's not to love? Our commitment to local products, restaurants, charities, and arts is nothing short of admirable,” he says. “There are a lot of great people doing great things here—something Mom [Lisa Laco] was always proud of. Also, the 10-minute drive across town is pretty sweet.”
Thank you to the City of Thunder Bay and Porter Airlines for the generous sponsorship and congratulations, John!

Thanks to Dan Dampier for the behind-the-scenes look at @wolfhead_coffee's roastery. Dampier started the company about ten years ago; he orders about 1,200 pounds of coffee at a time and roasts in small batches.
