The City of La Crosse plays a key role in helping those who live here, as well as visitors, have more fun. Jay Odegaard, La Crosse's Parks and Rec director joins. He's the man who heads most of that work. We had so much to talk about with Odegaard that this is just part one of that interview. Here, he talks about:

• Flood cleanup and how it impacted businesses
• New Northside transient dock
• Data shows boaters are coming from many Midwest locations to La Crosse
• The extension of the levy at Riverside Park is expected to bring more boats docking
• How Bass Masters – the Super Bowl of fishing – has brought even more tournaments to town.
