Plan to attend the 2019 Midwest Travel Network Conference in June and you will find yourself in Rough Rider Country. Theodore Roosevelt arrived in the badlands of North Dakota in 1883. He wanted to be part of the romanticized American frontier. He immediately fell in love with the region, going on to become a big game hunter, a local rancher and a real life cowboy. Today. the contemporary personality, Josh Duhamel declares his home state of North Dakota is Legendary. In addition to plenty of networking and educational benefits, the Midwest Travel Network Conference will let you discover exciting Medora North Dakota Adventure.
Pre and Post- Conference Activities
We are still in the planning stages for the specific pre and post-conference activities. But that doesn’t mean we can’t drop a few hints.
Medora Musical
The Medora Musical is the rootin’-tootinest, boot-scootinest show in all the west! Live and outside, this is one tradition you don’t want to miss.
Pitchfork Fondue
Imagine your steak skewered by a pitchfork and cooked over an open fire. This treat often goes hand in hand with the Medora Musical. Medora will entertain you with Cowboys and Chuck Wagons.
