Public Affairs Events

As part of the Chamber’s initiative to serve as the primary advocate for member businesses on local and regional issues, several special events are held throughout the year designed to provide community and business leaders a greater understanding of specific issues affecting the Fargo Moorhead region and the organizations that are in place working on solutions.

Each spring, the mayors of Fargo, Moorhead, West Fargo and Dilworth are invited to address Chamber-members and provide an overview of the State of the Cities. The forum provides a unique regional perspective of current business and community issues and activities.

Your Chamber often partners with state and federal organizations to provide you access to other events you may find valuable, including:
