The 2021 Leadership Bismarck Mandan class is participating in two different field projects. While each project is different, the goal is the same. Each project has a goal to make an enhancement to the Bismarck Mandan community. Both committees would like to hear feedback from local businesses and the community to understand the need of each project. Please fill out this short survey to allow the committees to better serve the community with their respective projects.  

The first Leadership Bismarck Mandan committee is pursuing a project to establish specific drop-off and pick-up locations for rideshare services at high-traffic areas downtown Bismarck and Mandan. This would include designated signage at specific spots, integration with rideshare vendors and an awareness campaign for our community. The goal of our project is to make it easier, safer and more convenient for downtown patrons to visit your businesses and get home safely through a rideshare service.

The second Leadership Bismarck Mandan committee is pursuing a project that would bring a voice and story to the downtown art and architecture. Each piece would come alive on the Talking Trails app with an in-depth description provided by the artists or historians for a richer, immersive experience.
