Regional Mayors Caucus

January 27, 2016 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

VIBRANT TOWNS.  DIVERSE REGION.  STRONG STATE.

We have rescheduled the Regional Mayors Caucus previously scheduled in August 2015 for Wednesday, January 27, 2016 at 6:00 p.m. at Park River City Hall.  The Caucus will be co-hosted by Mayor Dan Stenvold, Park River, and Mayor Michael Brown, Grand Forks.  The purpose of the Caucus will be to discuss opportunities and challenges throughout our four county region encompassing Grand Forks, Nelson, Pembina and Walsh Counties.  We believe there is strength in building unity and cohesiveness between our local governments and identifying ways we can be even greater together.

We are seeking a sponsorship for the meal and would appreciate RSVPs by Friday, January 22 by calling Lori Estad at 701-352-3550 or email at lori@redriverrc.com.
