🚨 Today could be the last MASA meeting… or the start of a new chapter.

We’re gathering at 12:00 PM today at the Ward County Administrative Building for our quarterly Minot Area Safety Association meeting — and this one matters more than most.

With several long-standing leaders stepping down, we’ll be discussing the future of MASA. Will we pass the torch — or close this chapter?

We’re also honored to host Harlan Olson, CSP with WSI, presenting “Choices in Safety – What Does It Take?” A powerful and personal talk on the very real consequences of unsafe decisions — and how we prevent them.

👷‍♀️ If you care about safety, workplace culture, and community leadership — this is the conversation to be part of.

📍 12:00 PM | Ward County Administrative Building
Come curious. Leave inspired. Maybe even get involved.

Everyone was harmed in the making of this video.
“Shake Hands With Danger” — the 1970s safety film that hits harder than a frozen wrench on a February Nodak morning.

This retro gem has it all: bad choices, worse mustaches, and a country jingle you’ll never forget about why not to stick your hand in a running engine.

Watch it. Cringe. Learn.
Then go do your job like a pro—not a throwback.
