Busy summer schedule set for Minot State Alumni Association
MINOT, N.D. – The Minot State University Alumni Association is excited to announce a busy summer schedule with events in Minot and Northwest North Dakota.
The summer officially begins with the Alumni Association’s annual Friend-Raising Golf Tour. Hit the course with alumni and friends during our summer golf tour! Registration begins at 4 p.m. with a shotgun start at 5 p.m. Each stop is a 9-hole, 4-person scramble format with an optional dinner at the course following play. Each golfer will receive a free T-shirt and will be entered to win door prizes. Participants will pay for green fees and dinner at the course. Stops include:
- Star City Golf Course, Velva: Tuesday, June 9
- Garrison Golf Course, Garrison: Tuesday, June 23
- Kenmare Country Club, Kenmare: Thursday, July 30
Registration for teams is available on the Alumni Association’s Friend-Raising Golf Tour website.
While the golf tour has been a summer mainstay for the past 20 years, a new tradition is set for June 15 as Minot State will join the Minot Hot Tots for Alumni & Friends Night at Corbett Field.
The cost per person is $25 and includes all-you-can-eat food from 5:35 p.m. until 7:35 p.m. Everyone receives a wristband that includes three experience tabs, good for any drink (beer and seltzer is 21-plus), small Dippin’ Dots, candy, Fun Zone, or personal popcorn. All in attendance will be registered for MSU door prizes.
The game, featuring Minot vs. rival Bismarck Larks, is scheduled to start at 6:35 p.m.
For more information and to register, see the Alumni Association’s 2026 MSU Night at Hot Tots website.
MSU will take the show on the road for two Alumni & Friends Socials, traveling to West Fargo on June 11 at Louie’s Sports Bar & Grill, starting at 6 p.m., and to Bismarck on Aug. 11. More information will be available on the Bismarck event at a future date.
Finally, the Alumni Association invites everyone to the North Dakota State Fair Luau on Wednesday, July 22, at the Flickertail Gardens.
