A record crowd of over 300 attendees gathered for the annual Chamber sponsored State of the Base breakfast, where Grand Forks Air

Force Base (GFAFB) Commander, Colonel Tim Monroe, shared an optimistic outlook on the base’s future.

Military Affairs Committee (MAC) Co-Chair Tim Haddock of Service Credit Union expressed gratitude to

Colonel Monroe and the airmen for their service. He also emphasized the many programs the MAC provides throughout the year to support military personnel. As the primary link between GFAFB and the local community, the Chamber’s MAC plays a vital role in fostering strong military-community relations.

UND President Andy Armacost Highlights Record Growth with Game Show Flair at ‘Wake Up to UND’ Event

Wake Up To UND 2024

University President Andy Armacost addressed a record-breaking crowd at the annual “Wake Up to UND” breakfast, a collaborative event between The Chamber and UND that highlights the university to the Greater Grand Forks business community. In a creative twist, President Armacost used the format of several popular TV game shows to showcase the exciting progress at UND. Before he took the stage, a video clip of his appearance on The Price is Right— where he was famously called to “Come on Down” and later won a Ford Fiesta—was played.

Drawing from his experience on The Price is Right, President Armacost used the “One Away” game to reveal this year’s student enrollment, which is the third-highest in UND’s history. He incorporated other game show formats throughout his presentation to highlight UND’s growth, success, and key program statistics.

There’s no doubt—UND and the community are experiencing significant momentum!
