North Dakota's billboard campaign headed for Twin Cities

But the chamber isn't saying where, or what, exactly.

The North Dakota chamber is bringing its "open for business" campaign to the Twin Cities, the Fargo Forum reported this morning.

I checked with Andy Peterson, the chamber's president, by email, to find out where, exactly.

"If I reveal its location it may lower the anticipation of those watching for it. It is ordered and ready. Should be up within a few days," he wrote back.

I asked whether it's the same billboard as the one that has been marching southeast since May (pictured above, credit Dave Kolpack/AP). It started in Moorhead, then moved to Fergus Falls. Next up is a billboard facing traffic westbound from the Twin Cities, Peterson says, but he's mum on the message.

"You will have to wait and see," he said.
