The first major
event to use the nickname was “The Magic City Harvest Festival” in 1908. This
was sponsored by the Minot Commercial Club, (the forerunner of the Chamber of
Commerce.) The event was held on September 28th and 29th
on Main Street. It featured a large banner across Main Street titled “Welcome
to the Magic City” and subtitled “The Pride of the Northwest”. When asked about
using the name “Magic City”, the response in the Minot Daily Reporter was as
follows: “While growth in Minot did not show “mushroom growth”, if one looks at
the list of improvements attained in the city you would see the growth that has
been going on for the last few years is substantial and geared towards the
future.
