Coeur d'Alene, in the heart of North Idaho, is nestled amongst the tall pines on the shores of beautiful Lake Coeur d'Alene. This 100-year-old city is rich in history with a population of approximately 40,000, in a county of 100,000, and has been honored as one of the few communities in the country to be named an All American City.

Coeur d'Alene is French for "Heart Like An Awl" (an 'awl' is a very sharp leather working tool) The local Native Americans were dubbed the Coeur d'Alene's by the French Fur Traders because of their 'shrewd or sharp' trading skills.
