The CNMI Small Business Development Center (SBDC) Network at the Northern Marianas College is pleased to announce the new date for its Saipan Christmas in July event, now scheduled for Friday, August 22, 2025, at the Northern Marianas College As Terlaje Campus V Building parking lot.
Originally planned for July 25th, the event was postponed due to weather advisories tied to Tropical Storm Kosra. With sunnier skies ahead, SBDC is excited to bring the holiday magic back — just in time to cap offthe first week of NMC’s Fall 2025 semester.
This festive night market will showcase over twenty (20) CNMI SBDC client vendors offering food, drinks, products, and services for the community to enjoy. The event will also feature the crowd-favorite Raffle Passport Activity, where attendees can earn stamps for every $10 purchase and enter to win from over 30 raffle prizes throughout the night.
“This event is all about connection — bringing students, vendors, and the community together in celebration of small business and local pride while festively welcoming our students back on campus,” said Nadine Deleon Guerrero Kintol, Network Director, CNMI SBDC Network.
Join us for an evening of island-style holiday cheer, local shopping, and student spirit.
