Good morning, Minot.

After a burst fire suppression main on Friday evening caused water and mud to flood key areas, the Minot Family YMCA closed until further notice.

The facility is working with Servpro—cleanup is underway as programs are canceled or moved to alternate locations.

State funding for homelessness programs got a boost this year after the Legislature resolved an error in the governor's veto, and Men’s Winter Refuge in Minot received $25,000 plus the overall allocation rose from $2.5 million to $10 million this biennium.

Revised federal grant processes now will ease administrative burdens, though providers reported that requests still exceeded available funds.

Downtown Minot hosted its annual North Dakota State Parade on Saturday with about 200 entries, featuring civic groups, local businesses & first responders and community organizations along with the debut of the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile.

Organized by the North Dakota State Fair Parade Committee, the event celebrated community pride and state heritage.

At the state fair, a concertgoer captured video showing two planes around the time a near miss occurred above Minot.

A Delta flight from MSP to MOT took evasive action Saturday night to avoid a collision with a B-52 bomber from Minot Air Force Base — it safely landed after circling the airport several times.

After a health diagnosis prompted a change, a local resident started a pick-your-own produce farm that is now flourishing+ visitors enjoy picking fresh fruits and vegetables while learning about the farm's unique beginning.

North Dakota State Fair announced winners for the 2025 Food Frenzy Competition held on Friday.

The contest featured creative dishes like Top Concessions’ “Sunset Swirl” pineapple float and other crowd-pleasers — fairgoers can sample the winners on the fairgrounds.
