ST. ANTHONY -- When the St. Anthony sand dunes were voted the number one recreational dunes in the country by an all-terrain vehicle magazine last year, city officials didn't want the records to stop there.
Now they're trying for the world's biggest ATV parade.
The city is promoting a parade this summer that would double the 1,138 ATVs that set the record last June in Evarts, Kentucky.
Officials say an ATV parade is a chance to promote the city's dunes as a tourist attraction.
Last year 275,000 people visited the dunes, and the number keeps growing.
The parade would be accompanied by a street fair in downtown St. Anthony as well as a trail ride.
