Minot, ND – Americans for Prosperity-North Dakota (AFP-ND) is proud to be one of the sponsors of the North Dakota State Fair’s Battle of Rumblehorn, a two-day rodeo event taking place July 20 and 21 at the All Seasons Arena.
The North Dakota State Fair kicks off Friday and runs through the following Saturday at the fairgrounds in Minot. The Battle of Rumblehorn is one of the fair’s biggest events, and AFP-ND will have a presence both nights; one table outside the main entrance to the arena and one table inside just behind the rodeo announcers.
AFP-ND will be giving away brand new merchandise, running prize drawings, and talking with fairgoers about who the chapter is and what it does both nights. AFP-ND State Director Justin Forde will also open the rodeo both nights with brief remarks welcoming guests.

AFP-ND State Director Justin Forde released the following statement:
“The Battle of Rumblehorn is one of the highlights of the state fair, and we’re glad to help make it happen this year.
