ND Tourism Conference
North Dakota Tourism conference was held April 21 & 22 in Mandan and I got to go. I Went shopping for spring clothes don’t I look great. I registered at the main desk so that I could attend the sessions. The first day was the Governors Awards Banquet and the dinner was very good only I ate the Desert first. Walhalla was really excited at the awards banquet because Kathy Stremick won the state award for 2008 Travel Industry Leader. Congratulations Kathy!! Kathy’s parents Kenny and Martina Stagl were on hand to see Kathy recieve her award. I had my picture taken with Governor Hoeven and Kathy after everything was over WOW what an honor. Congratulations to all the winners. After all that excitement I was tired so I went to the room instead of singing Karaoke Monday night. All in all it was a fun conference. I can’t wait till next year in Grand Forks.
