When 3,500 North Dakota school teachers convene in Minot for their North Dakota Education association convention Oct. 21-22-23, they will find an outstanding group of speakers and entertainers, and an unusually large number of highly recommended consultants have been engaged.

Why We Chose It
This remains a powerhouse convention, and it used to be regularly hosted in Minot. At some point between then and a long time ago now Bismarck got their hands on it and hasn’t let go. A rudimentary guess at the impact: $150 per day by 3500 visitors equals $1,500,000. Conventions are big business.
