Has it been a while since you attended
a NOSHA general membership meeting?

 

If you are wondering what you have missed please review the list of presentations given in 2008, 2007, and 2006 below.

 

Each month the NOSHA Education Committee arranges some sort of learning/enriching activity for the NOSHA General Membership Meeting. These activities include presentations, demonstrations, facility tours and round table discussions.
 

NOSHA meetings are held the third Wednesday of each month from 11:30 AM to 1:00 PM. With the closing of the Royal Fork Restaurant December 2008 we have began meeting at the Golden Corral (3251 32nd Avenue South, Grand Forks, ND 58203). This location is currently subject to change. Please check our website for monthly meeting locations in 2009.
