Mission and Program Overview

Mission

The Fargo-Moorhead Convention & Visitors Bureau functions in a metropolitan community made up of three individual communities in two states. We exist to promote the Fargo-Moorhead-West Fargo area as a destination for groups of visitors involved with conventions, trade shows, and other business travel, as well as individual visitors and tour groups, so that our members and the community may serve them while they are here. We do this to strengthen the communities' economy, create employment, and generate tax revenue for the metropolitan community.We intend to provide marketing opportunities for the private hospitality sector so that our members might have access to potential clients. We will provide assistance to organizations and individuals in the community in soliciting and implementing meetings of their affiliations. We will also help to create externally-directed community marketing efforts.

Develop and promote a shared community vision enhancing the attractiveness of the region.

Any actions taken by the Executive Committee shall be ratified by the Board at the next Board meeting following the date of the action taken by the Executive Committee.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7A

“The Fargo-Moorhead-West Fargo Chamber of Commerce, Fargo City Commission, Moorhead City Council, and West Fargo City Commission each have the power to appoint one board member.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 8B

“The Board of Directors reviews and approves a draft of the Form 990 prior to it being filed with the IRS.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12C

“Any director, principal officer, or member of a committee with governing board delegated powers, is required to annually comply with the conflict-of-interest policy. Board members must disclose any information they have regarding potential conflicts of interest. Potential conflicts are reviewed by the Board of Directors that do not have conflicts. In the event of a Board member conflict, the Board members without conflicts would review and make a determination as to that member's qualifications to remain on the Board. Board members with conflicts will recuse themselves from voting on items in which they have a conflict.”

As part of our efforts to attract such events, we provide a variety of event assistance, both in the form of cash assistance and services to conferences and tournaments, as needed.

In the event of a Board member conflict, the Board members without conflicts would review and make a determination as to that member's qualifications to remain on the Board. Board members with conflicts will recuse themselves from voting on items in which they have a conflict.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt5Every three to five years the Board conducts a review, then meets to discuss any salary changes outside the presence of the CEO. This process was last undertaken in 2023.
