BISMARCK, N.D. (KFYR) – Some organizations outgrow their original buildings. One of those is the North Dakota Stockmen’s Association, which has moved to a new location.
The old building was used for 50 years, but the organization needed more space.
North Dakota Stockmen’s Association is the largest ranching organization in the state with more than 3,000 members.
The new building has a larger boardroom and parking lot to accommodate large vehicles and trailers.
Since 2015, the association has been looking for property to build on.
The new building cost around $3 million. The Stockmen’s Association, the Stockmen’s Foundation, member donations and the sale of their existing location were used for funding.
“The biggest difference between our previous location and our new location is the incorporation of the board room. While we had a small conference room at our old location, it wasn’t large enough to hold our board. All of our board functions and many of our meetings had to be taken off-site,” said Julie Ellingson, executive vice president of the North Dakota Stockmen’s Association.
She said she’s excited to keep meetings at their building and use it for ag-related partnerships.
The new building is located at 4520 Ottawa Street.
