Rick Olson, Target Field Tours
“We have become the largest education program in Major League Baseball and partnering and exhibiting with the MN Field Trip Library & EXPO was the best marketing decision we have made.”
Brian Richards, Educational Speaker & Magician

“Just thought you would like to know that I just did two programs in Browns Valley [MN] yesterday (11/12/2015) and the teacher who hired me said she planned her whole year using the MN Field Trip & Activity Guide!!”
“I just want to take a moment and share how excited I am to be a partner in the MN Field Trip Library. I was attracted to this resource because they are, quite literally, the only game in town. What I mean to say is that the people Mark Peterson targets are my prospects. I have been in this field for over 25 years and nothing compares if you want to reach Principals, Teachers, PTAʼs, Community Ed, Park & Recreation leaders, Scouts etc.
Of course, the key ingredient to my satisfaction is an understanding of how this process works. The results may not be immediate, you must be patient as you build a strong foundation under the expert guidance of Mark Peterson. This is a man who understands what your goals are. He will work to get you together with the people who make the buying decisions. Plus, be ready for an occasional nudge from him as to what to do. He is invested in your success because he knows he has a responsibility to meet the needs of the visitors to the Library.
Anyone who has been in the business of selling a service or product knows how hard it is to establish credibility. The results are not instant and requires some patience, but with the email alerts, the conferences, and the online presence you will find that people will start to remember you. A marketing study revealed it takes a minimum of 7 exposures to your ad before someone pays attention. Partnering with the MN Field trip library will increase your exposure dramatically and you will reap the rewards.
Thanks, Mark for your innovative service and I look forward to sharing my success with you!”
Bud Johnston, Keepers of the Sacred Tradition of Pipemakers • Culture Camp
“This is the 5th year our tribal non-profit in Pipestone has participated in the MN Field Trip Library and exhibited at the EXPO where we offer our Tribal culture programs. Both the Library and the EXPO have been awesome! Many, many people have talked with us about what we can do, and a number of them either came to our Culture Camp in Pipestone or had us bring our presentation to them. This year’s EXPO at the Minnesota History Center should be even bigger and better!”
Julie Samuelson, Wild Mountain and Taylors Falls Recreation
“The MN Field Trip EXPO is one of our favorite exhibits to attend. Last year’s attendees were excited to learn more about what WIld Mountain and Taylors Falls Recreation had to offer and we had several inquiries. We’re sure this year will be a big hit!”
John Fraley, Eko Backen Snow Tubing
“The MN Field Trip Library and EXPO really generates business for us… see you at the EXPO!”
Amy Bry, Minnesota Children’s Museum
“On behalf of Minnesota Children’s Museum, we are very excited to be part of the MN Field Trip Library and to be able to exhibit at this year’s MN Field Trip EXPO! We’re looking forward to meeting the planners who want to know more about our organization and all the fun we have to offer! Since last year’s EXPO and through our partnership with Mark and the Library, our contact list has grown by a phenomenal 56%! We count on this service to expand our community outreach and serve as a resource to connect us with those seeking more out of educational offerings in Minnesota.”
Laurie Fenner, Audubon Center of the North Woods
The Field Trip Library and the EXPO are one of the most effective outreach efforts to participate in. The dates and great locations of the EXPOs encourage us that this year will be even better – a trait we find often in all we do with the MN Field Trip Library!”
John Sullwold, SEA LIFE Minnesota Aquarium
“SEA LIFE Minnesota Aquarium is excited to make even more contacts and sales at this year’s 2015 MN Field Trip EXPO! The qualified contacts we have made through the Library and at this show is a great reason to come back year after year.”
Richard Erickson, Teddy Bear Band
“Teddy Bear Band is able to provide detailed information on educational shows and funding opportunities, network with vendors, and connect with new program management with EXPO face-to-face experiences.”
Doug Killian, Mall of America
“The MN Field Trip Library and EXPO offers excellent opportunities to gather ideas for a wide range of field trip activities. It brings together top venues from around the region for travel planners to design fun and educational tours.”
