Entertainment - Jessie Veeder
Jessie Veeder has been a symbol of folk music in the badlands of Western North Dakota since she released her first original album, This Road when she was only sixteen years old. It was an effort that sparked the interest of music enthusiasts and took her from performing at fairs and festivals around her home state to managing a national college and coffeehouse tour and recording her fifth original album in Nashville in 2015.
With unique and interestingly beautiful vocals, Veeder’s lyrics swell with references to her own life experiences growing up on a working cattle ranch in the rugged land of Western North Dakota. Veeder’s ability to captivate audiences with stories of her love for the landscape, the culture and the people of small-town America is what pulls at the heartstrings of audiences across the globe and made her original music such a success.
Attend the annual meeting to hear Jessie perform from 5:30 - 6:30!
Free Meal - 4H Clubs
Local 4H clubs throughout our service area will be serving a full meal to annual meeting attendees. Pulled beef, cheesy hashbrowns, fruit and dessert will all be served cafeteria style immediately following registration.
