“As a nonprofit leader, I found the 2025 InterCity Leadership Visit to Wichita to be an invaluable opportunity to build relationships with business, government, and community leaders across our region. The experience helped put faces to names, deepen my understanding of the roles different organizations play in Greater Mankato, and create connections that continue to strengthen collaboration today. It also provided a platform to share the vision for CMSM and gain insights from a community that has successfully leveraged leadership and partnerships to support transformational projects and capital investment.” Kim Kleven, CEO, Children’s Museum of Southern Minnesota
