 The event will be located near the Commercial 2 Exhibit Building on the State Fairgrounds. The meal will be served from 11 to 1 or until food is gone. North Dakota's cattle ranchers are proud to host the Beef Industry Military Appreciation Day each year, says North Dakota Stockman's Association President Jason Leeseth. Once again, that event is taking place July 23rd at the North Dakota State Fair in Minot.
