The Start of the 21st Century 2000-2009
     
2000
   
2008
  In December, the original Mandan Theater / Showboat Theater reopened as Mysteria Theater - a live entertainment venue coupled with a up-scale restaurant.
2009
A second fire station opened in the Lakewood area to serve southeast Mandan. New drinking water aertial distribution system and southside reservoir was completed to service that area of the city.

The sixth-grade wing opened at the Mandan Middle School which prompts the last class being held at the Great Plains Academy. The Fourth Street complex had been the site for the city's central school starting in 1904 and later expanded multiple times to include a designated middle school and high school buildings.

The Park District purchased "Raging Rivers Water Park" in the southeast portion of the city from private owners.  Harmon Lake opened in north Morton County.  It's dam was instrumental in holding back the rapid spring snowmelt which raised both havoc and river levels in the Mandan-Bismarck area in April 2009.
 

The MHSoc's museum and office is located at 411 W Main St, Mandan, ND 58554
