It’s time to dust off our boots, hang up our hats, and take a moment to reflect on our biggest and best Black Hills Stock Show and Rodeo ever! An all-time attendance record was set last week, with over 333,000 individuals visiting our facility and community. Our largest single day ever occurred on Saturday, February 4th, with over 65,000 attendees! Numbers like this are only possible because of the dedication of the Rushmore Plaza Civic Center staff, as well as the entire Rapid City community joining together to support the Black Hills Stock Show and Rodeo. For that we thank you all, and look forward to another great turnout in 2013!
