A Busy October for the State Fair Center

Believe it or not, the Fair is not the only event to take place on the North Dakota State Fairgrounds. In October alone, the State Fair Center played host to several large public events. The largest being Norsk Hostfest, North America's Largest Scandinavian Festival. As staff at the State Fair Center we're lucky to have the sights and sounds of these events right outside our office doors. (Some of us are also lucky that the lutefisk is made in a different room, far away from our office!) Hostfest was followed up by the annual Y's Men's PRCA Rodeo. If you've never been to the Y's Men's Rodeo you are missing out, mark your calendars now for next years rodeo which should be the second weekend in October. Finally, we'll end the month with the Big One Arts and Crafts Show. The Big One has both a spring and fall show each year to unveil the arts and crafts of hundreds of talented individuals. This provides a great shopping opportunity while the men are out bird and bow hunting. The State Fair Center also held auctions, flea markets and meetings in October.
