Congratulations to our Distinguished Rustler, Marissa Storm!
FREE CONCERT IN PARKSTON: Rowan Grace, a top ten finalist on The Voice from a couple of years ago will be putting on a FREE concert (donations appreciated) at the Parkston Amphitheatre on Thursday, May 22nd starting at 7:00. Rowan graduated from Rapid City last year and has just finished her first year of college at Berklee College of Music in Boston. She is excited about getting back to playing live gigs this summer and is kicking off her tour in Parkston. Rowan played our space last summer and put on a fantastic show with a GREAT selection of music. She is so personable and has so much fun doing what she is doing that it is contagious! There will come a time when you will have to purchase tickets to see Rowan perform, so come see her now up close and personal! As if that isn’t enough, the opening act at 6:00 for Rowan will be the Logan Culhane Band. Logan is from Mitchell and appeared on American Idol not so long ago doing very well. She, along with her band, are extremely talented and will certainly add to the evening. There will be food trucks available in the park where the concert will take place. Bring a lawn chair and enjoy the evening.
