As we look towards the future and everything is uncertain, we look at the whole picture are all here for each other. Usually, during this time, we would write a blog post for everyone when they are starting to plan for their summer trips if they have not already. It is sad to think that we will need to reschedule or cancel our trips for the summer so we can keep ourselves and everyone we love safe.
We are writing this blog post is a little different this year and it can be used as a resource during this time and all times because these events are all worth attending. There are a wide variety of events ranging from Fourth of July events, marathons, Beerfest’s, rodeos, light shows and so much more - located throughout the Black Hills, but not all are listed.
Below is a list of some summer activities with the supporting links so you can see if the events are still on track for their event date. If you are unable to find the information on the link to the Facebook page will also be listed below.
We hope in the near future to see you and your loved ones. We are thinking about all of you and are hoping the best for each and every one of you.
