HISTORICAL SKETCH

The predecessor of the Minot Chamber of Commerce was the Minot Association of Commerce. Articles of Incorporation were signed on September 4, 1923 with eleven members as trustees until their successors were elected and qualified. The purpose of the association was to promote the civic, economic, and social welfare of the people of Minot and northeastern North Dakota.

G. E. Danielson was the first president, serving in 1923 and 12924, and two classes of memberships were formed: business and personal. Personal memberships would be held by any individual whether in or out of business and dues were not less than $10 per year. Business memberships could be held by any association, corporation, business, partnership, or estate and dues were $25 per year. New organizations were formed and encouraged by the Association of Commerce to promote dairying, good roads, poultry raising, lignite mining, crop diversification, and many other activities. Other early presidents were Dr. R. W. Pence, 1925-1926; Glen D. Coleord, 1927; and Hal S. Davies, 1928-1929.

After much encouragement from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and other state chambers, the Minot Association of Commerce changed its name to the Minot Chamber of Commerce and its first official meeting was held in January 1954. R. P. Kresbach was elected as the first president; A. R. Weinhandl, vice-president; Glen Hanson, second vice-president; Ulric M. Gwynn, secretary; and A. L. Gimse, treasurer.

Many committees within the Chamber help the officers work with other agencies and organizations to accomplish objectives. Some of the committees are agriculture, aviation, central business district, cultural affairs, education, health and safety, fire prevention, military affairs, natural resources, public affairs, trade promotion, transportation, tourism, recreation, and conventions.

Several longtime goals of the Association of Commerce, and now the Chamber, have been accomplished or are near realization. Beginning in 1923 the Association supported the merger of Great Northern, Northern Pacific, and Burlington railroads, and this was approved in 1970. The organization worked hard to get a bridge crossing on the Missouri at Garrison which was accomplished when the Garrison Dam was finished. Other projects the Chamber has organized or supported over the years are tree planting, seed grain and potato shows, completion of Highways 2 and 83, turkey days, flower shows, air and train service, Canadian tours, Band Day, scholarship award banquets, “Name Genie Contest,” Mouse River flood control, and Four Dam limited.
