WELCOME TO THE CHAMBER EDC, NATE!
NEW CHAMBER EDC HOLIDAY EVENT!
I am a born-and-raised Minot native who moved to the Bismarck area last spring when I married my amazing wife, MiKayla. Since then, I’ve been blown away by this community. Even with it being the second largest city in ND, the people have that legendary North Dakota nice attitude. I love the wide variety of outdoor activities and indoor events that this community offers. It’s no Nate Brown wonder this community continues to grow, and I’m thankful I get to be a part of a team that contributes greatly to that growth!
The Chamber EDC is excited to announce our BRANDNEW holiday event; the 12 Tastes of Christmas! This new holiday gathering is sure to get all Chamber EDC members into the holiday “spirits!”
I enjoy spending my weekends playing games with friends, volunteering at church and then cheering on the Philadelphia Eagles (Yes, I was a fan before Carson Wentz. I did love him as an Eagle though)! In Minot, I also worked for Minot Youth for Christ, an organization that seeks to bring hope to young people, and I continue to be involved with them in any way I can. I am so excited to be taking on the Sales Coordinator role with the Bismarck Mandan Chamber EDC team. I graduated from Dakota College at Bottineau with my Associates in Finance. Since then, I have been working in various sales roles, and I have enjoyed them all. My favorite part about sales is all of the new people I get to meet, and my first 2-3 months with the CEDC has been full of meeting members new and old to find ways to get them more involved and maximize the benefits of membership.
On Thursday, December 9th, guests will have the opportunity to network and spread holiday cheer while taste-testing holiday-inspired cocktails, wine, beer, spirits, and more! Local distributors and breweries will each have their own offerings for you to try alongside free hors d’oeuvres and a cash bar just in case there’s a special holiday drink you want. So come and sample the best food and drink that Bismarck-Mandan has to offer, all while enjoying one of Bismarck-Mandan’s best views from the National Energy Center of Excellence's 4th Floor in the Bavendick Stateroom located on the Bismarck State College campus. Registration will take place from 4:30pm to 5:00pm, with the event to follow from 5:00pm to 7:00pm. Great food, drinks, holiday music, and company will make this event well worth the $25-member discounted admission.
