NDSU came out on top, sweeping multiple podium spots and keeping the traveling trophy on home turf. Beyond the competition, students also connected with engineers from Bobcat, gaining real world insights and networking opportunities. For more details read the full article here.

A piece of Fargo’s coffee scene is sticking around after all.

Miles That Matter: Turning Travel Points into Wishes Come True ✈️

Unused airline miles could go a long way in changing a child’s life. Through Make-A-Wish’s “Wishes in Flight” program, donated miles help cover travel costs for children with critical illnesses and their families, sending them to dream destinations like Hawaii or Disney World. As part of its 10th anniversary “Miles for Smiles” campaign, Make-A-Wish North Dakota is encouraging people to contribute miles to help grant wishes for kids currently waiting.

One local story highlights the impact. Finn, a high school freshman who battled melanoma, wished for a trip filled with ocean adventures after being declared cancer-free. Make-A-Wish made it happen with a trip to Key West, where Finn got to snorkel, explore, and enjoy unforgettable moments with his family. With over 80% of wishes involving travel and each trip costing around $10,000, donated miles play a crucial role in making these experiences possible. Even small contributions can add up to something life-changing for families across North Dakota. For more details, read the full article here.
