It looks like republicans will be getting a dose of agriculture this fall when they get together for their convention.
The Minnesota Agri-Growth Council is hosting AgNite, a celebration of America’s food and agriculture industry, Tuesday, Sept. 2, 2008, during the second night of the Republican National Convention in the Twin Cities.
The evening event will showcase the food, agriculture and energy industries in a unique and exciting club atmosphere, featuring high-tech, interactive displays, cutting-edge visual effects, top-notch food and beverage selections and headline entertainment at the end of the evening.
“AgNite will be a grand celebration representing the scale and diversity of today’s food and agriculture industry,” says Daryn McBeth, president, Minnesota Agri-Growth Council. “The historic significance of The Depot, located in the heart of Minneapolis’ original milling district, will provide an inspiring setting for what will be the food and agriculture event when 50,000 visitors are in town for the GOP National Convention.”
