Hot Cars
Thousands of classic car lovers packed Deadwood’s main street last weekend for the 19th annual Kool Deadwood Nites. The four-day celebration of the 1950s, ’60s and ’70s is Deadwood’s largest event, with activities including parades, music and a car auction. John Mitchell shared these photos from the show and shine on Sunday.
Music at the Meridian
Yanktonians now gather on Thursday nights in summer at the base of the circa 1924 Meridian Bridge for music, food and festivities. The event, now in its second year, is attracting ever-larger crowds who mingle by the banks of the Missouri River. Photos by Bernie Hunhoff.
A Lasting Legacy
Our July/August issue includes a story by John Andrews on Joseph Ward. Ward came to Yankton in the late 1860s to spread congregationalism, but his legacy in South Dakota extends far beyond the church. Andrews collected several photos from the Yankton College archives for the feature. Here are some that we couldn’t fit into the magazine.
Staff Favorites from July/August 2017
Here are some of our favorite photos from the latest issue of the magazine. What are yours?
Over 700 Years in the Making
Good Earth State Park at Blood Run, South Dakota’s newest state park just southeast of Sioux Falls, is one of the oldest sites of long-term human habitation in the United States. Rebecca Johnson, our special projects coordinator, visited the National Historic Landmark recently to hike the trails. Here are some of her photos.
Duncan Donuts
Our July/August issue includes a story by Staci Perry on the Flandreau Bakery and Coffee Bar. Two generations of the Duncan family have been baking tasty treats there for 88 years. Perry visited the Duncans to hear their story, sample a few classics and take several photos — too many to print. Here are the ones we couldn’t fit into the magazine.
Happy 200th Birthday
Fort Pierre, South Dakota’s oldest organized town, became a community when Joseph La Framboise opened a trading post at the junction of the Bad and Missouri rivers. Fort LaFramboise fizzled out, but in 1832 it was rebuilt as Fort Pierre Chouteau, named for a key owner of the American Fur Company. Chouteau’s post prospered for decades, and the name Fort Pierre stuck. Our May/June issue includes a story on the town and its 200th anniversary. Bicentennial celebrations are planned throughout the summer. Bernie Hunhoff visited Fort Pierre and took several photos. Here are a few extras that didn’t fit into the issue.
On the Vine
Our May/June issue includes a feature on the the art of growing grapes in South Dakota. We gathered several photos for the article — too many to print. Here are some that didn’t make the magazine.
In Memory
To commemorate Memorial Day, volunteers placed flags at every one of the 20,000 gravestones in the Black Hills National Cemetery near Sturgis. The cemetery is a United States National Cemetery open to all members of the armed forces and their spouses. Those who served were also honored with programs sponsored by the South Dakota American Legion and Oglala Sioux Tribe. Photos by John Mitchell.
