The District:

        My initial enquiries into the Chaska district, brought what
        seemed mainly school responses. Still Try:

        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaska,_Minnesota

        Three great rivers, the mighty Mississippi, the Red River
        of the North, and the St. Lawrence all begin their long 
        journeys within the state of Minnesota. The source of the 
        Mississippi had been sought for years, and it was finally 
        discovered here at Lake Itasca, where it begins its 
        2,552-mile path to the sea. 

        If you are ever asked to meet someone at Long Lake, you 
        might want to take a raincheck: Minnesota has at least 
        91 different lakes named Long Lake! With more than 
        12,000 lakes within the borders of the state, unique 
        names can be scarce. The lakes of the northern portion 
        of the state have transformed the area into popular summer 
        resorts, attracting thousands of visitors each year with 
        their pristine beauty.
