This week, the ND Corn Growers Association (NDCGA) announced that they will celebrate 35 years of service to their farmer members in August. All are invited to a celebration of their work on August 8, 2022, in Mapleton.
NDCGA was incorporated on April 13, 1987 at the Doublewood Inn, in Fargo with directors; Henning Anderson, Robert Berg, Dennis Swanson, Dave Ricks, Kevin Sunde, Mark Mitskog, Howard Gabbert, Wallie Hardie, Dave Hillman, Duane McIntyre, Brian Vculek, Thomas Mund, Wayne Rehovsky, Ray Haugen, Robert Thompson, and Ron Stran present. Robert Thompson was elected as the president.
Since then, 3 NDCGA leaders have served as President of the National Corn Growers Association (NCGA), 3 leaders served as Vice President of the NCGA, 3 leaders served as Chairman of the NCGA, and 1 leader served as Treasurer of the NCGA. NDCGA is proud to have had a role in developing the leaders that have guided the North Dakota and U.S. agriculture industry.
Join us to celebrate these leaders, and all the other members and leaders that have shared ideas, met with their elected officials, testified at Congressional hearings, and represented North Dakota farmers in various capacities at local, state-wide, and national levels. All corn growers, industry representatives, and sponsors are welcome to the August 8, 2022 35th Anniversary celebration. RSVP online at NDCGA35.eventbrite.com.
