People from all 50 states have already visited Jamestown in 2012.


Nina Schneider, Executive Director of the Buffalo City Tourism Foundation says usually that feat is not accomplished until late July or early August.


"The number of people that are coming into our information center were up about 35 percent," said Schneider.


Schneider said they are nearly on pace to match record tourism numbers from 2010.


Schneider attributes the high numbers to several factors, including the early spring and the growth in western North Dakota.
