Bakken Oil Expo

 

Giving Back to the Community

By attending the Bakken Oil Workers & Oil Service Expo you are giving back to the local community.  Not only do events like this drive revenue directly into local economy, but each year a portion of the proceeds go to selected charities. 

Recipients

Two recipients will be chosen for the next event and will be announced toward the end of the year.  If you are interested in nominating your non-profit charity, send an email to Michelle at mkw@blue52productions.com.  Please provide information about the non-profit and how it is having a positive impact on the Bakken region.
