Tracy Lundeen
Tracy Lundeen – long time host of Saturday morning’s Talk Of The Town on KDAL – has spent a lifetime connecting business and entertainment in a mutually beneficial way that provides a spectacular experience for his audiences while providing a platform for local and regional businesses to meet face-to-face with their customers.
Through his original company, ShowPro he worked with the City of Duluth to create Bayfront Festival Park and Fourth Fest, Duluth’s annual 4th of July celebration. He went on to create several more events that have spanned decades in the Duluth area – including the Bayfront Blues Festival, Duluth Wedding Show and Northland Senior Expo(now the GO Show, acronym he created for Getting Older) . He reinvigorated the Duluth Women’s Expo, and partnered Engwalls Florists, Greenhouses and Garden Centers to create the Engwalls Corn Maze and Agri-tainment Center, and with By the Lake Productions to create the new Festival by the Lake that takes place annually in Bayfront Festival Park and New Years by the Lake at the Greysolon Plaza complex.
In 2014, Lundeen honored his mother, after her passing, by creating a non-profit foundation that supports youth in the arts. The Bluebird Foundation provides funding for high school kids in the performing arts through grants, scholarships, and advocacy. Since its inception, the organization has awarded nearly $50,000 in grants and scholarships to area kids.
Lundeen is active in the Duluth community, his compassion for local issues and businesses comes second only to his family. He is a dedicated father and grandfather and a fierce supporter of his children’s ambitions.
Awarded “Tracy Lundeen Day” by Mayor Ness and the City of Duluth in 2013 for his contributions to the community, he remains one of the most respected businessmen in the area. He manages to find the humor in wearing so many “hats”, making him a favorite to do business with, as well. In his downtime, he likes to head to the peace and calm of the lake with this family.
