In this interview, host Miles Beacom sits down with Jerry Thomsen, son of 2000 Inductee Gordon Thomsen, to discuss his father’s legacy and the legacy of the family business Trail King Industries.

What started as a small family business out of the Thomsen household, grew into the nation’s largest manufacturer of specialized trailers, with an employment force of over 500 people. Trail King Industries created opportunities for many in Mitchell SD and beyond.

In this episode, Jerry Thomsen emphasizes the importance of chasing your dreams, and if the opportunity isn’t handed to you, you have the ability to create your own opportunity.
