  • ABOUT THE BEE

    The Greater North Dakota Chamber is partnering with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation and 4 chambers of commerce across North Dakota to host a nonpartisan statewide civics competition. The 2024-25 National Civics Bee® encourages young Americans in 6th, 7th, and 8th grade to engage in civics and contribute to their communities.

    The competition, modeled on traditional spelling and geography bees, gives students the chance to win recognition and earn cash prizes by sharing ideas for improving their communities and showing their enthusiasm for civics. The winner of the National Civics Bee® North Dakota State Finals will receive a trip to Washington, DC to compete in the National Civics Bee® national championship in Fall 2025.  

  • WHY CIVICS?

    We are hosting the National Civics Bee® North Dakota State Finals because we believe that informed and active citizens make for a strong country, a strong economy, and a strong workforce, and that our continued prosperity depends on the strength of all three. Through the Bee, we are promoting greater civic knowledge throughout North Dakota and celebrating our civic pride.
