Are you an employer who is looking to introduce the Grand Forks area through the eyes of a “young person?”

Are you new to the area and looking for ways to meet more people and get involved?

Look no further.

Warm Up to Grand Forks is a program from the Greater Grand Forks Young Professionals that aims to help local businesses with the recruitment process. YP members will give tours and answer questions about living in the Grand Cities. Click on “Warm Up Information Packet” for more!

“I really appreciated Warm Up to Grand Forks and the opportunity to see Grand Forks and ask questions about the community. I think it is a great service for people considering a move to Grand Forks. I was able to ask questions that were important to me and my husband as we considered moving to the area, but not necessarily related to the job I was interviewing for. I was able to look around and really see the city without having to worry about missing a turn and getting lost.”

A little bit about Greater Grand Forks

Greater Grand Forks is made up of two cities — Grand Forks and East Grand Forks — joined by a river with a combined population of 64,000 and growing. We’ve got the feel of a small town and the amenities of a city. We have:

  • A vibrant downtown district full of restaurants, bars, theaters and shops.
  • The Greenway, a 2,200-acre riverside park featuring bike paths, snowmobile trails, disc golf and golf courses, a swimming pool, a dog park and plenty of natural scenery.
  • A premiere entertainment and convention facility, the Alerus Center.
  • The Taj Mahal of hockey arenas, the Ralph Engelstad Arena.
