The Holiday Showcase in Fargo is now full, and we have a short waiting list. The others still have openings, but not many, so don't forget to send your forms in! Also, be sure to vote in our newest poll above!

Hey everybody!

Our holiday showcases, especially Fargo, are filling up fast. Don't forget to get your application in before it is too late! If you lost yours contact the office ASAP and we can get you a new one. See you in November!

We had a Great Day today. Thanks to the people that made it happen!

Hey Mackenzie,
I just gotta tell you I love this website. I especially like the map. Next time I am driving around the state I will take down information on Pride of Dakota stores along the way and can easily stop and shop. I did not know there were so many stores that handled POD products.
As for the expenses, my biggest expense (other than the materials needed to finish a project) is shipping/postage and the shipping supplies.

Hey members,

We are in the beginning stages of planning for the next Pride of Dakota annual meeting. We would love to hear what you guys liked from last year, and what you would like to see happen this year. We need ideas for seminars, one-on-one's and presentations, so anything you can think of would be great!! You can post your ideas on here, or email them to me at mlehmann@nd.gov. I look forward to hearing from you! Have a great day!

Mackenzie

She wants as many products as possible. Please contact her promptly, as she needs to place her orders soon. You can reach her at meadowbrookhf@hotmail.com.

This event is put on by Leighton Broadcasting, so there will be lots of publicity.
