We are excited to announce our first confirmed sponsor of the 2026 music intensive! Williston Basin API Chapter has been with us from the beginning, always a great example of how the Bakken oilfield gives back.

Our local API chapter has donated over $1 million & counting into valuable educational opportunities, events, organizations, community service, & more. Ohโ€”& they have fun while doing it! ๐Ÿ˜‰ Their annual golf tournament fundraiser is the best place for oil & gas businesses to network & relax in the summer.
