This summer I am looking forward to spending more time outdoors—hiking, I hope to learn how to swim, running, golfing, and just being downtown.

PORKPALOOZA

WHAT PORKPALOOZA 8TH & RAILROAD, SIOUX FALLS

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

BY ANDREA CONOVER

D

IN A CITY LIKE SIOUX FALLS, IT DOESN’T TAKE LONG TO NOTICE IF SOMETHING IS MISSING.

In this case, it was pork.

A pork-centric summer festival, that is.

Together with Remedy Brewing Company, KBACK Radio, and the Sioux Falls Jaycees, Gross and AGE Media have spent the last three months carefully crafting the latest summer festival: PorkPalooza.

The organizations are partnering with key players in the pork industry, including Pipestone Vet, the South Dakota Pork Council, and the Turner County Pork Producers, to forge connections between producers and consumers, all while enjoying local music, craft beer, and BBQ. Additionally, proceeds from the event will go directly to Feeding South Dakota (FSD).

According to Gross, donations toward protein only make up eight percent of FSD’s income, yet protein is one of the most important nutritional basics for families in need.

After the organizers of RibFest decided to call it quits last year, Garrett Gross, co-founder of AGE Media & Promotion, saw a gap begging to be filled.

“The goal of the event isn’t to generate revenue for the promoters,” said Gross. “We’re here to take care of people who are local.”

“There was a lot of success with the previous group that did it,” said Gross, “and at the end of the day, people just want to get together and have fun local experiences.”

Gross and his partners are hyper-focused on the local aspect of this festival.

WHEN JUNE 8 & 9 6-10 P.M. // 11 A.M. - 10:30 P.M.

“There were other promoter-type individuals that wanted to fill this void, but they were from other parts of the country,” said Gross. “We don’t need someone coming in from out-of-state and taking all the proceeds with them.”

Agriculture is one of the primary industries in South Dakota, and generating support and understanding for it among consumers is key for the community’s growth and success.

“This is our opportunity to showcase the ag industry and bring it to the local consumers,” said Gross.

Festival-goers can expect local food trucks (all featuring unique pork dishes), local music - Guilty Pleasures Orchestra, Ron Keel, and Jim Grothe, to name a few and fun for the whole family.

“I encourage people to come on down, bring the whole family, and enjoy our local beer, local live music, and local BBQ,” said Gross.

PorkPalooza’s organizers are grateful for the enthusiasm and support the event has already received.

“We’ve had an absolutely incredible amount of people

INNACLE PRODUCTIONS AND ITS BRANDS DO IT ALL, FROM WEDDING DJS, PHOTO BOOTHS, MUSICAL BINGO, TRIVIA, CORPORATE EVENTS, AND NIGHTLIFE PROMOTIONS. Now, Pinnacle Productions has elevated their concert and festival productions as well as their corporate event production through the growing EDM fanbase in the Midwest.

“We turned a lot more focus onto the audio and visual production, we do a lot of concerts, a lot of nightlife, a lot of event promotions and tours,” said Jeff Meuzelaar, partner and vice president of Pinnacle Productions.

“We’re one of the few providers in the state of South Dakota and North Dakota where we can do a lot of cool stuff with video production.”

Meuzelaar said he got his experience with promotions through nightlife for the former nightclub The Vault in Sioux Falls as well as promotions for Icon Event Hall + Lounge. After his promotion experience, he merged with Pinnacle in 2014.

“After our merger... then we decided to experiment with electronic music shows. Our first show was about three years ago with an artist called Manic Focus, which sold out. So from there with all of our nightclub promotions background, we started promoting electronic music,” he said. “[With] all of our electronic promotions, we made those relationships where managers would start hitting us up directly to tour manage and also production for the entire tours.”

Meuzelaar says although Pinnacle is in their “infancy” with producing festivals, and festivals aren’t their focus for this year, they’ve found success in the past with hosting festivals in Omaha and 515 Alive in Des Moines, Iowa.

“Our main festival is 515 [Alive] music festival. Last year we just managed all of their afterparties and did all of the production for their afterparties, and then we also did some special effects on the main stage,” he said.

The skills that come with producing EDM concerts and DJing weddings can be applied to producing corporate events, too, Meuzelaar says.

“Outside of the concert production, we are able to take all the skills and knowledge from these tours and so forth and apply it to our corporate clients,” he said. “Just in April here,

we produced an event... for the University of South Dakota. So we did custom set designs, over 200 video panels with all custom content. That was for President [Jim] Abbott’s retirement, so that was a really cool event.”

Meuzelaar says Pinnacle has carved a niche in the Midwest market in order to produce more “sleek” designs for corporate clients.

“Traditionally, audio/visual for a corporate gala or a conference is just kind of boring and stale.

What we can do is really utilize our skill set and our knowledge of

visual production that we use for a lot of our nightlife clients and tour clients and meld certain elements to make a corporate design a lot more exciting, whether that be sparklers going off at an awards presentation or custom visual content on LED panels, or just having enhanced lighting put in an event,” he said.

Meuzelaar says considering many of Pinnacle's staff have a background as DJs, they all have an acute sense of detail when it comes to event planning and coverage.

“[With] our background as DJs... we’re used to communicating with clients in a different way than a lot of audio and visual companies have been in the past,” he said. “Then we also offer for our corporate clients video coverage, whether that be live event cameras, or capturing and producing videos. Our media team can also do all the custom content, and we also do photo coverage for the event as well.”

FOR MORE INFORMATION, VISIT PINNACLEPRODJ.COM.

"What’s unique [about Pinnacle] is we have really in-demand talent.

We have a lighting designer that’s constantly traveling the country designing light shows for a lot of our clients. Our audio engineer also tours. He has a plethora of experience. I think the biggest thing that sets us apart within the region is our capabilities with LED panel production, building custom set designs using video, and creating custom content with video panels.”

BLACK HILLS MOUNTAIN FESTIVAL

BY MONICA ALBERS | NICK HUBBARD PHOTOGRAPHY

A WEEKEND ON THE TRAILS OF SOUTH DAKOTA’S BLACK HILLS IS TRANSFORMED THIS SUMMER INTO SOMETHING ORGANIZERS HOPE ENCOURAGES MORE EXPLORERS TO VENTURE INTO THE OUTDOORS. “We are targeting everyone – from the die-hard, outdoor recreation enthusiast to the couch potato that’s maybe wanting to get outside,” said Kristy Lintz. “We’re hoping to open up the doors for individuals that may have some interest or that may be new to the area.”

Lintz, director of the Black Hills Mountain Festival and recreation program specialist for Rapid City Parks and Recreation, has helped spearhead the transformation of the Black Hills Fat Tire Festival

2 0 \\\\\\\\\ J U N E

into something more. For the first time, the weekend event, which takes place June 15-17, will include outdoor education, concerts, a beer garden, and a variety of activities. Lintz says the goal is to help people pursue a range of outdoor interests – beyond the weekend’s festival.

“If you’re interested in something, or may not know much about an outdoor recreational opportunity that we have to offer, it would be a great opportunity to come down and learn.”

Experts and vendors from the area have all pitched in to share their know-how and their products. Instructors will be offering clinics on everything from fly fishing to backpacking. Others are working to introduce women to rock climbing, or provide tips for trail running. Lintz says all of these activities are possible for participants to learn more about, thanks to the special qualities of the Black Hills area.

“We have such amazing resources within our state parks and in South Dakota, and all of these activities can be done throughout the area,” said Lintz. “So we just want to have one weekend where we can have those resources so people can come and learn and enjoy the camaraderie of it all.”

They also want to bring a summer festival vibe to Rapid City’s Founder’s Park. Live concerts are scheduled throughout the weeken, and a local brewery is helping run a beer garden for those whose favorite outdoor activity may involve a drink on a patio.

However, mountain biking and trail runs remain at the center of the weekend. The Fat 5k and 10k runs take place Saturday on the hills of Hanson Larsen Memorial Park, in a partnership with the Black Hills Running Club. Plus, new this year – a 12-hour overnight bike ride. The ride runs from 8 p.m. Saturday to 8 a.m. Sunday, and consists of about an 8-mile

Organizers say the course has been designed with night riding in mind, and also offers a place for cyclists to make camp and rest if need-be. Lintz says this is the only race of its kind in South Dakota, and that it’s a way to offer something different for a lot of the endurance riders in the area.

Activities are also in the works to encourage the next generation of trailblazers, including a XCountry bike race for kids ages 9 to 14.

Organizers placed those events on Sunday, Lintz says, to encourage family participation on Father’s Day June 17. Most people involved are from the Rapid City area, but some families have come from as far as Texas in past years. Welcoming participants of all experience levels is part of the fun.

“It’s that active family dynamic that we’re really focusing on, but we’re trying to keep in mind that we want to get families active as well,” said Lintz. “So if they’re new to the outdoor recreation world, we want to be able to give them a welcome mat.”

Registration options for all these events are available for solo competitors, duos, quads, or corporate teams – which also determines the registration cost. Proceeds from the weekend are funneled back into outdoor activities and help support the Black Hills Mountain Bike Association.

AT HOME NICK + SARAH ENGBERS

0

nce their first lease was up, Nick and Sarah Engbers were ready to move into something more permanent, and admit they were frequenting the internet daily for listings.

“We were stalking Zillow every day, and I found this place at 3 p.m. on a work day and sent Nick the link and said, ‘I found our house,’” said Sarah. “I sent him photos and he loved it, and we put an offer in at 7:30 p.m. and they accepted it that night.”

“I don’t think anyone even looked at the house,” added Nick.

The 1952 home in central Sioux Falls was perfect for the couple, who are huge fans of mid-century modern. With three bedrooms, the 1,706 square-feet worked great to start a family, which they did with 7-month-old Winnie.

Sarah, a physician assistant at Avera Dermatology, and Nick, a musician and the downtown campus worship director at The Ransom Church, have created a curated collection of pieces that tell a story.

2 4 \\\\\\\\\ J U N E

NICK HAS A FAVORITE COASTER FROM RUG & RELIC. “THIS IS MY GOTO,” HE SAID. “THIS IS LIKE MY SPIRIT.”

HOME + LIVING

O THE LIVING ROOM “They just don’t make things like they used to,” said Nick.

That’s why the couple has “slowly” decorated with a mixture of estate sales and thrift store finds mixed with newer items.

“We like bringing things back from vacation because we love the memories,” said Sarah.

Walking over to their living room fireplace with the original wooden walls, one memory is a framed train sitting front and center on the shelf from a vintage store in Asheville, N.C. “I like trains. I love the railroad,” said Nick. “I like to collect little things. We went Europe, and the trains were awesome.”

“If we could bring trains back to America, he would be thrilled,” laughed Sarah. “He gets into something for a while, and trains were one of those phases.”

Nick also has a book obsession, and the living room built-ins are for fiction and theology.

“I like having books that I haven’t read that I can look and pull them off the shelf,” he said.

The chairs are from the 1970s and are from a range of places, like former mid-century store Modtro, and Etsy.

One item that is not vintage is their area rug from Anthropologie.

“This was one of our first purchases after we got married,” recalled Sarah. “In our other house, we pretty much had this rug and nothing else.”

Music was playing from their vintage record player, which came from MidModMen+friends in Minneapolis. A record display from Etsy works as a piece of art, while also creating a place to put the record’s case while it spins.

“In this instance, it’s Paul Simon with one of my favorite records,” he said of the current cover displayed.

“That’s one of those times where I’m mad I didn’t think to create this, because it’s so simple and we paid $35 for it.”

Above the record player is a gallery wall with eclectic and intentional pieces, like a framed South Dakota feed sack and a photo of Nick’s grandfather.

“I think it’s the most badass picture ever,” he said, pointing it out. “He’s got the car, the clothesline, it’s legit.

Eventually we’ll have all of the grandpas up here.”

“WE’RE BOTH DUTCH, SO WE GOT THE DUTCH SHOES.”

On the far right is a narrow map that was shaped in a way that they used Framebridge to display it.

“I love the shape, and the river is probably another obsession for me,” said Nick.

Other living room highlights include a piano from Craigslist (which they reupholstered themselves), and Sarah’s great grandmother’s sewing table that they use as a console in the entryway.

6 0 5 M A G A Z I N E . C O M \\\\\\\\\ 2 5

HOME + LIVING

O DINING ROOM + KITCHEN The living room opens to the dining room, which is quaint with a West Elm table, and the shining stars are the retro end chairs from an estate sale.

One would guess the mid-century highchair was also a thrift find, but it is a Phil & Teds chair from Target.

The “good eats” sign is from Landscape Garden Center, which the couple joked about the irony of buying a food-inspired sign from a greenhouse.

A wall shelf holds random items that Sarah says have no huge thought behind them.

THE ENGBERS HAVE A VAST COLLECTION OF ANTIQUE CLOCKS. “IT’S A THING YOU SEE A LOT AT ESTATE SALES,” SAID SARAH.

“It’s hard to know what to actually pick for the shelves,” she said.

“Right now we just have some dishes and things like that.”

The blue dishes are a favorite for Nick.

“We got [the blue dishware] for our wedding, and for some reason I was super into the plates and the glasses,” he said.

“I always drink out of the blue glasses, and she refuses to and has her favorite to drink from. I just love the color.”

The ceiling light was original, though they had to pull beading that was dangling from it.

Other than that, the Engbers didn’t have to do too much to the home.

“THE PLANTS ARE ALL ALIVE, BUT WE’LL PROBABLY KILL THEM EVENTUALLY.”

“We pulled all of the carpet downstairs and put in new carpet,” said Sarah. “I repainted some rooms while I was pregnant, but that was pretty much it. We have dreams of redoing the kitchen, but maybe next year.”

GO-TOS FOR ANTIQUE & VINTAGE FINDS THE THRIFTY SARAH ENGBERS GIVES 605 READERS SOME OF THEIR FAVORITE PLACES TO GET UNIQUE ART, FURNITURE, AND DÉCOR. URBAN ARCHAEOLOGY A beautifully curated vintage store in downtown Sioux Falls.

HIDDEN TREASURES ESTATE SALES There is usually one sale a month and they’re awesome (typically Thursday to Saturday). Go the first day for the best finds or the last day for the best discounts.

MULTIPLE ANTIQUE STORES IN TEA. Every few months we like to make the rounds to these to see if there is anything new.

O OFFICE “We’ll read and write and I’ll play music down here,” said Nick.

There is another stocked bookshelf with business-inspired books.

“This is mostly business and selfhelp,” continued Nick, “but then there’s random books like a guide to trees. I also had a tree obsession for a bit.”

More records are framed, which he has had since high school.

CRAIGSLIST “When I was in school I had a thing for Frank Sinatra,” he said. “I switch them out once in a while.”

The desk, which was from the former Sioux Falls store, Zing, has inspiration strewn about it, including a photo of Albert Einstein. A bottle of Templeton Rye Whiskey is there, which Nick says he appreciates as someone from Iowa and someone who dabbles in history.

“Apparently when Al Capone was doing his thing, the town of Templeton, Iowa made this during Prohibition and was shipping it around,” he said.

Other masculine touches are flannel-printed jars and a statue of a dog from Chattanooga, Tenn.

Next to the Sioux Falls Flag is a map with pins plastered on it.

Nick explained, “That map is everywhere we’ve been together.”

There are always unique things to find on Craigslist, but to get the good stuff you have to look often!

LOFT & CRAFT AND HOME & CLOSET Two cool stores in Lincoln, Nebr. with a lot of midcentury modern finds.

GARAGE SALES In the spring and summer, we love to just drive around and look for signs leading us to garage and estate sales. McKennan Park is a favorite neighborhood for good sales!

LUCKY DAY SALE In Lake Norden, there is an occasional sale in a cool barn in the country. It makes for a perfect day trip on the east side of the state.

JUNK FEST AT THE NEST A spring and fall sale near Brandon. This has multiple vendors with a variety of unique furniture and home décor.

THE VINTAGE MARKET A fun store in downtown Beresford. It’s huge and packed with antiques and furniture. Occasionally they will open their warehouse as well if you want to buy something more rough and put the work into it yourself.

MARKET ON 18 A vintage store and occasional indoor/outdoor flea market in Davis. Another fun day trip for their occasional events.

O DOWNSTAIRS The carpet is a reason why the family enjoys hanging out downstairs.

“We use it a lot now with the new carpet,” said Nick. “Winnie can chill on the floor.”

With limited space, the daybed is a way guests can stay over and doubles as a couch.

The hutch was another one of the first big purchases for the couple.

ALMOST ALL OF THE COUPLE’S MID-CENTURY LAMPS ARE FROM TARGET.

“It was super cheap from a Beresford vintage shop,” said Sarah. “It was full of dust and was a place you purchase items before the owner had a chance to redo them.”

She continued with a laugh, “And we’re always looking for more storage for Nick’s books.”

This room is for non-fiction and autobiography with “a little poetry.”

“I quiz [Sarah] a lot. If she asks me to put one away I’ll say, ‘I can put it away, but if you were to put it away, where would you put it?’ I know, it’s pretty dumb,” he said.

Next to the hutch is a framed record of Nick’s band Amos Slade (he also performs solo as N.W. Engbers).

“I gave this to him after [Amos Slade] put their record out. I had it framed at Rehfelds,” said Sarah.

The brown leather couch is where they relax, and also has an entertaining story behind it.

“This couch we drove to Lincoln, Nebraska and ended up not really liking it,” continued Nick, “but we brought it back anyways because it was too late. I think it ended up working out.”

Several pieces like the lamp and chair are from the annual event Junk Fest at the Nest (see side bar).

Next to their second fireplace is a hanging banjo.

O WINNIE’S ROOM “I just love eclectic and a bunch of color. It was a little bit girly, even though I didn’t know what I was having,” said Sarah of Winnie’s room. “We started with grey and added more feminine touches once she was born.”

Nick, who kept the secret of the sex of the baby, pointed out a stuffed doe that they found for their daughter in Door County, Wisc.

“It’s a really awesome town, and we found this [stuffed animal set] and it was somewhere around $50,” explained Sarah. “My mom surprised us with one.”

THE “SAD PEAR” ART IS FROM FINE LITTLE DAY.

They also talked about a “Winnie” sign that is above her changing table.

“A co-worker made this, which was really cool,” said Nick.

The letter board reads, “Sometimes the smallest things take up the most room in your heart,” by A.A. Milne, and Sarah admits she hasn’t switched it up.

“I’ve used it for my merch table quite a few times,” laughed Nick.

Hanging from the letter board are beads on a string.

Sarah explained, “These were Winnie’s bravery beads when she was in the ICU. She got a bead for every shot or test she had to go through, so that’s a sweet memory.”

O MASTER BEDROOM As it happens, one of the last rooms the Engbers have gotten to for décor is their master bedroom.

The Anthropologie bedding was a wedding gift, and a quilt from an estate sale rests on the end.

“She loves these blankets,” said Nick. “If there is ever one of these blankets at an estate sale, we get it. As soon as I see, I think, ‘We’re probably going to grab that.’”

They recommend Hidden Treasures Estate Sale, which they frequent during the summer months.

“With the Hidden Treasures Estate Sale, the whole house is set up and it’s really neat,” said Sarah.

“I DON’T KNOW WHAT IT IS, BUT WE’RE INTO CREWEL EMBROIDERY.”

ENDING OUR TOUR AND WALKING BACK THROUGH THE DINING ROOM, NICK LOOKED OUT THE LARGE WINDOWS, REFLECTING ON WHY THEY LOVE THEIR ABODE. “THIS HOUSE JUST REALLY HAS CHARACTER TO IT,” HE SAID. “I LOVE THE WINDOWS. THERE’S SO MUCH NATURAL LIGHT. I REMEMBER STANDING THERE WHEN WE FIRST MOVED IN AND THINKING HOW IT FELT LIKE I WAS STANDING OUTSIDE.” FOR MORE INFORMATION ON AMOS SLADE, VISIT AMOSSLADE.COM.

The crew at Fernson Brewing Company had a crazy May. Not only did they release their summer ale, the 2018 Zoo Brew (a portion of proceeds goes towards the new African Lion exhibit), but they took home the gold medal for Farmhouse Ale at the 2018 World Beer Cup. Don’t think they’re slowing down, as they have the 3rd Annual 605 Day on June 5, Fernson Field Day June 16, and the 605 Summer Classic June 22 and 23. 605 chatted with brewers and cofounders of Fernson, Blake Thompson and Derek Fernholz, to see what they’re doing in and out of the brewery that “brings you closer to those around you.”

DEREK

BLAKE

I enjoy walking downtown. I live up the hill in the Cathedral [of Saint Joseph] district, and most Saturdays I walk down and go from brewery to brewery/taproom, taking in SculptureWalk [1] and businesses in between.

My wife and I like taking my kids to the Great Plains Zoo [4], especially with the nice weather.

One of my favorites at Fernson is our crowler machine [2] because it allows you to take any beer we have on tap and put it in a can to take home. We only offer five of our beers in cans right now, but the crowler machine gives you access to many more.

As a fly fisherman living far away from traditional fly fishing water, I have recently taken up fly fishing for carp with local author and legend Dan Frasier.

I’m often going to the Washington Pavilion or for a walk to The Falls [3] with my wife, Hilary, daughters, Faye and Hattie, and our dog, Alice.

As an avid member of the Sioux Falls Curling Club, you can find me curling for 7-10 weeks in the fall and spring leagues at the Scheel’s Iceplex.

In general, I love to take in the food and drink that Sioux Falls is creating and am always proud to show new people to the area some of my favorites.

5

I’m a huge fan of playing disc golf at Tuthill [Park] [5] and riding my bike on the bike trails.

Running is a passion of mine, and I especially like to run at Great Bear [Recreation Park] with my dog.

I’m pumped about our new five-barrel brewhouse [6], because it allows us to test recipes and experiment on a smaller scale. These small-batch recipes will keep our taproom offerings ever-changing and exciting.

When I’m not brewing, it’s always great to cook at home with my family.

Siouxland Renaissance Festival

BY ERIN MAIROSE

TWENTY EIGHTEEN PIRATES, GYPSIES, JESTERS, AND JOUSTERS ALL CALL THE SIOUXLAND RENAISSANCE FESTIVAL HOME FOR TWO DAYS JUNE 9 AND 10, TRANSFORMING THE GROUNDS INTO A SCENE DATING BACK TO MEDIEVAL TIMES. The year is 1575 in the town of Shrewsbury, England, where you’ll find Captain Nadia Leastien and her first mate, Nathaniel Bridges, sharing stories with visitors about raiding ships and serving up drinks in the mead tent.

Leastien’s real name is Jennifer Olson, although she’s been playing the part of a pirateering captain at the Renaissance Festival long enough for visitors to recognize her pirate garb and feathered hat. She went to her first Renaissance festivals when she was 5, and left captivated.

"Zilch the Torysteller always blew me away as a kid, and even now as an adult, because he has everything from the children’s stories to the wonderful risque adult stories. So it’s kind of nice to keep seeing the same performers,” said Olson, now a ninth year volunteer.

3 4 \\\\\\\\\ J U N E

Zilch is one of many favorite acts at the festival, with other includes the Four Pints Shy and the Tortuga Twins that travel around the country as nationallyknown Renaissance performers.

Another crowd favorite is the medieval jousting, where knights donning full armor, lances in hand, battle on war horses. Taking place in the Expo building on the fairgrounds, it makes for “one of the few air-conditioned jousts I’ve ever seen,” said first mate Nathaniel Bridges, or better known outside of his Renaissance character as Tim Newcomer.

For Newcomer, his role as Olson’s first mate began after his first year volunteering dressed as a Viking, “and then someone suggested we do pirates, and then it really took off from there,” he said. As Nathaniel Bridges, Newcomer plays the part of a mysterious runaway who left his parents to join Captain Nadia on the seas.

“That tells you how easy it is to get sucked into the Renaissance Festival as you think you’re going to try it out, and then before you know it, you’ve created a whole character with a backstory,” said Olson.

The first time Reilly Licha attended the festival was on a date with his future spouse Kathy, who dressed up in

Storyline

The Renaissance festival tries to welcome, entertain, and educate visitors with historical accuracy mixed into the fun of creating characters. Each year a different storyline will play out at the festival, and this year expect to watch an English Lord woo Queen Elizabeth the I into marriage by throwing her a springtime festival, (although you’ll have to wait to see if he’s successful).

Other artisans come with leather goods, drinking horns, jewelry, and clay pots, ensuring each visitor leaves with a token of the festival.

her Renaissance costume, made Reilly feel naked in comparison. So the next year, he had his mom sew him a shirt and pants. A few years after that in 2013, Reilly and Kathy got married at the festival in which Kathy rode a war horse in her wedding gown.

“Once we started getting involved it felt like a big family,” said Reilly.

Over the years for the Lichas, their costumes have had to change slightly as their roles changed, as Reilly said, when he become treasurer for the festival, he realized being a gypsy pirate didn’t quite fit the job.

“It became a joke when I was taking over the treasury that it was in the constitution that I could not be a pirate,” he said. So

instead, since treasurers are known to say 'no' to most things, he then became “Lord Hamish No McDaniel.”

With that same attitude, each festival goer is “welcomed as though you are already a part of the festival,” said Newcomer. “So if you’re visiting in shorts and a tank top, you’ll be greeted as an important character who already belongs to the festival.”

Chances are, once you go, you’ll want to keep going back to be immersed in all the sights, acts, and merriment of medieval times.

1880 TRAIN OLD WEST SHOOTOUT

BY GARRETT AMMESMAKI

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

A PIECE OF HISTORY MAKES ITS WAY BETWEEN HILL CITY AND KEYSTONE. FROM MAY TO DECEMBER, THE 1880 TRAIN OFFERS A SCENIC RIDE THROUGH THE BLACK HILLS FOR FAMILIES AND STEAM ENGINE ENTHUSIASTS ALIKE. “It’s really an opportunity to step back in time and enjoy a simpler time, and see how transportation was in the earlier days,” said Holli Edwards, business development manager.

3 8 \\\\\\\\\ J U N E

The 10-mile ride is narrated and accompanied by a host who points out different sights along the way, giving passengers an insight into the history of the area. It takes roughly an hour, but during Thursday evening runs, it may take a bit longer as passengers experience a wild west train hijacking.

Actors dressed in old-time regalia treat passengers to a show in Hill City, and halfway through the ride, the train is descended upon by bandits in a place called “Oblivion.” After the sheriff shows up, a gunfight ensues.

“Usually after the shootout, some of the guys pick up their spent shells and hand them out to the

kids. The kids really enjoy that,” said Scott Harlan, assistant maintenance operations manager and conductor on the train.

Besides the train-jacking, there are many other events put on throughout the season.

The Mother’s Day Express special featured live entertainment, cupcakes, and a mimosa or sparkling juice. Later in the summer is Rails & Ales, where local breweries serve samples during happy hour and local barbecue will be served on board as well.

“Tons of people come back every year,” said Edwards.

“They plan their long weekend around those events.

It’s really fun to see.”

Edwards said many people also stop by to simply ride a steam engine.

“Foamers” or steam engine enthusiasts travel all around the world to ride steam engines, Edwards said. But because federal government regulations, they can only run the steam engine for a certain amount of time during the year. For the rest of the time they use a diesel engine.

Due to the demand, they are currently working on a second steam engine, and hope they’ll be able to ditch the diesel

engine sometime within the next two years.

Since steam engine parts are so hard to get, almost everything is machined on site. The shop is open to anyone who has an interest in learning more about the parts and the work that goes into maintaining centuryold technology. Although they don’t like people randomly walking into the shop, Harlan said they would be happy to give a tour to anyone who expresses interest.

rom festivals to weddings to real estate, Grant JT Holub of Black Hills Video has seen it all (including quirky music videos for the Nashville, Tenn. band The Outer Vibe). The professional storyteller has been creating films since a young age, and now shares his talents from the ground and high up in the air thanks to drones. 605 caught up with the cinematographer to see what inspires him, where some of his favorite spots are at, and what it’s like capturing the Black Hills from the sky.

YOU MIGHT KNOW BLACK HILLS VIDEO FROM... several wedding, aerial, and event videos. Also, the logo is making its rounds either on stickers or hats in downtown Rapid City.

I GOT INTO FILM WHEN... my teachers in 10th grade started letting me make videos instead of writing papers and doing projects for class. At the time, the videos were great, and it wasn’t hard to get people

4 2 \\\\\\\\\ J U N E

interested in helping. That was 12 years ago. YouTube wasn’t big yet when I first started, so I was just making content on the fly without any knowledge.

WE ARE 107A FAA CERTIFIED, WHICH MEANS... that I probably won't get in trouble for flying a drone.

Like most things, flying a drone on a professional level, being aware of the environment, and situation, requires a license. Four hundred feet up, and as far as the eye can see (within reason).

WHAT I LOVE ABOUT FLYING/FILMING WITH THE DRONE IS... it give you views and shots that weren’t able to be thought of/captured otherwise. Aerial cinematography adds a lot of value to film. The Black Hills is by far the best place to fly around, as we have so many different and unique locations. My favorite location to fly so far would be the Needles in Custer State Park.

WE HELP LOCATION SCOUT, WHICH MEANS...

I get to help find the filming location for a project.

Growing up in the badlands, and now living/exploring in the Hills, has helped me find some really great locations. I owe my friends many thanks for all the hikes. Rapid City gets a lot of outside companies/ productions all year long that come here and are wanting to film somewhere beautiful and unique.

I LOVE SHOOTING AT EVENTS AND FESTIVALS. ONE OF MY FAVORITE LOCAL FESTIVALS IS... the Lead Winterfest. Lead is a seriously underrated town.

It has skiing, beer, dark matter science, and several places to get lost outside of town. Like, you could be at the Greenfield Pub drinking a beer, and then there's some scientists 4,850 feet below the earth in the cleanest room in the world, and that's just Tuesday for ya.

ALONG WITH BEING HIRED FOR SHOOTS, I’M PASSIONATE ABOUT WORKING WITH GREAT ORGANIZATIONS. ONE NON-PROFIT I SHOOT FOR IS... Black Hills Works. Last year we started working with the Black Hills Works in creating

O MEET THE ARTIST: GRANT JT HOLUB several story-based campaign videos to highlight the amazing work they do, and the people they support. It’s been an amazing experience, and we’re looking forward to continuing with them.

ONE OF MY FAVORITE PARTS ABOUT SOUTH DAKOTA IS... that it's still the “Wild West.” And nothing is impossible.

OUR TAGLINE IS “GET ELEVATED,” WHICH IS... like our version of seize the day. Also, we fly drones a lot, giving an elevated look on what we’re shooting.

SHOOTING MUSIC VIDEOS IS DIFFERENT THAN OTHER SHOOTS, BECAUSE... you can do as many takes as you need, and it allows you to get creative. And if you can a fly drone around a band playing a song during the Solar Eclipse? Do it.

ONE PROJECT I’M REALLY EXCITED ABOUT... was one I produced for the Dakota Five-O. Last year, six friends and I filmed the 50 mile, 700-rider bike race outside of Spearfish. With eight-plus hours of footage, 120-plus editing, 20plus re-edits, the Dakota Five-O movie turned out to be pretty awesome, weighing in at nine minutes long.

IF SOMEONE COMES TO THE BLACK HILLS, I ALWAYS RECOMMEND TO STOP AT... the Badlands, because they are awesome to adventure, and not too far from Rapid. They might as well stop at Wall Drug for a donut and ice water while they’re at it. Besides Mt. Rushmore, there's a few breweries/hikes I would recommend. Ask me sometime.

A PROJECT I’M CURRENTLY WORKING ON IS… this summer I’m creating a video series featuring people doing their thing in the Black Hills, whether it be rock climbing, biking, hiking etc. The Woods Are Sick was inspired by one rad lady, and it will highlight people and their talents and dreams, along with the beauty of the Black Hills. If you'd like to adventure the Hills, let me know.

WHY I ENJOY TELLING STORIES THROUGH FILM IS... that it’s either helping a cause, or possibly could be contributing to society. Everything has a story, it's just how you tell it that makes it worth it.

Bonnie X Clyde Los Angeles-based Bonnie X Clyde blends together genres like house, trap, and electropop for a unique sound that’s simultaneously complex, high energy, and incredibly danceable. They call it “vocal bass.”

The EDM duo started in Fairfax, Va., where vocalist/ producer Paige Lopynski and DJ/producer Daniel Litman attended high school together. Individually, Lopynski appeared as a contestant on NBC’s The Voice and Litman honed his chops as a DJ at clubs and parties in the Washington, D.C. area.

The pair collaborated musically through college and beyond, forming BXC in 2015. Soon after, they became fixtures on the Miami festival scene, before opening for Skrillex, and embarking on their own 10-stop tour of Florida. BXC signed to Interscope Records in 2016, and spent a busy 2017 releasing EPs Wanted, In the City, Out of My System, Tonight, Hooked, and Bass Jam – the title track of which reached number one on Sirius XM.

Skizzy Mars’s releases include a 2016 solo album, Alone Together, which landed at number 50 on the Billboard 200. Other releases include EPs The Red Balloon Project and Are You Ok?, which features singles American Dream and 2006.

Denham While he’s a relative newcomer to the Sioux Falls music scene, Denham McDermott (who performs as “Denham”) is practically a veteran of the local festival circuit. The Aberdeen native appeared at both JazzFest and That Sounds Decent last year. Add in the recent release of his EP, Diaries of Distress, and Denham is riding a pretty solid wave of momentum into the 2018 festival season.

His is a sound that’s difficult to assign to a genre – with elements of pop, hip-hop, and R&B knitting seamlessly to create a sound that’s equal parts catchy and melodic.

Denham achieves this, in part, by minimizing his influences. While he loves seeing interesting artists with something to say, Denham mostly listens to old favorites, like neo-soul pioneer Maxwell.

“Honestly, I don’t listen to a lot of new music,” he admitted.

“Not because I don’t like it, but I feel like sometimes I get caught in what’s hot and new.

I’d rather focus on being as ‘me’ as possible.”

For those averse to pop music, Denham knows he can change minds – not just in Sioux Falls.

“I’m here to make a difference,” he said. “I just want people to open their spirits and accept something for what it is and not what it’s made out to be.

I’m going to take this to the next level and give Sioux Falls a musician to be proud of.”

Fayde He may be young, but Dylan Warwick (stage name Fayde) is poised for great things. He describes his style as R&B, with some rap mixed in – and he works to bring that tried and true formula to the next level, beyond musicianship to the realm of great performers.

Fayde enjoys musicians who can bring it on all fronts, like fellow newcomer YBN Nahmir, whom he admits wasn’t his favorite at first, but has won him over with his versatility and ability to “flow on any beat.” He also counts both Michael Jackson and Chris Brown among his biggest influences.

“Michael Jackson just changed the face of music, but they both bring a flavor that no one else has done in a long time with the dancing and singing," he said. "I want to be a great entertainer out of anything that comes with making music.”

Fayde promises to bring his all to the 2018 festival season, and says to expect his performance at the 605 Summer Classic to be one of the best of the weekend.

“I love interacting with the crowd, plus I might premier some new music to see what the people want,” he said, adding, “I want to inspire everyone that’s there to dream and do better. Also, I want them to know anything is possible if you believe and take action.”

Heatbox He’s known as the “One Man Entertainment System.”

Heatbox has spent the past decade grinding it out and sharing his uniquely entertaining creative gifts on stages all over the world.

Heatbox is a master of vocal percussion, blending beatboxing, singing, and a host of other vocal abilities – like simulating horns, stringed instruments, and even turntables. On top of that, he writes songs to blend a variety of technologies, like live looping, for a truly one-of-a-kind show.

In addition to being a 605 Summer Classic alum, Heatbox has opened for the likes of Wu- Tang Clan, George Clinton and the Parliament Funkadelic, and Boyz II Men. His discography includes two fulllength albums – Entertainment and System. Fans who’ve picked up System have been delighted to find a bonus video game on the album called Ninja Strike, which was designed and programmed by Heatbox himself.

Tuff Roots Reggae music sounds like summer, making it a natural – and usually welcome – addition to almost any fest’s lineup. Tuff Roots doesn’t disappoint. According to singer/rhythm guitarist Jordan Knopf, the band is all about bringing positivity and love, while hopefully inspiring a whole lot of dancing.

To the uninitiated, Knopf would describe their sound as “music you’d listen to while relaxing on the beach.”

Knopf draws inspiration from new bands like Iya Terra, as well as reggae staples like Slightly Stoopid, as a band, Tribal Seeds is a collective favorite of Tuff Roots.

The group’s first album, Planting Seeds, is out now, and will be followed later this year by a second effort.

In addition to playing the 605 Summer Classic and recording new tracks, Tuff Roots will spend some time touring the Midwest this summer and playing the second stage at Sioux Falls JazzFest.

Knopf said, “You can expect us to be wellrehearsed, and bringing our ‘A game’ every time we hit the stage.”

Linear Symmetry Hailing from Omaha, Nebr., Linear Symmetry has been commended for making “organic, electrifying dance music.” This three-piece EDM ensemble blends Huma Haq’s powerful vocals with high-energy instrumentals to create an all-encompassing musical experience. Haq’s violin dances atop an audio tapestry woven by producer and keyboardist Chris Story and drummer Andy Alback, fusing diverse elements of trap, funk, and world music.

High-energy performances at events like Electric Forest, Sonic Boom, and Dancefestopia have made Linear Symmetry staples of the EDM festival scene. For those who’ll see the trio for the first time at the 605 Summer Classic, warm up with their six-song release Native Science. On the EP, the trio demonstrates their efforts to bring listeners on a “constantly morphing sonic journey” – in a way that feels completely natural.

Amos Slade If anyone shows up to rock, it’s Amos Slade. This Sioux Falls five-piece endeavors to be a rock band, like rock bands used to be – unencumbered by subgenre, freely exploring all points between heavy and delicate. It’s a brand of rock that plays well on a festival stage.

“We play loud rock with a capital 'R,' laced with enough pop to keep you interested, but not enough to annoy you – all seasoned with a little home-cooked Americana. We sound like we mean it, because we do,” said guitarist and vocalist Nick Engbers.

Engbers cites old favorites like Brand New, Pedro the Lion, and Bright Eyes as influences, as well as relative newcomer Phoebe Bridgers, who he says motivates him to keep his songwriting simple.

Amos Slade exhibits this dichotomy on their freshman release Hungry Earth, which will soon be joined by a follow-up EP. Playing select shows and working on the new album will be part of a summer in which Engbers looks forward to “making music with friends, and making friends though music.”

Pete Freely

Infinite Revolutions

Sioux Falls-based DJ Pete Freely has been active in the local EDM scene since 2013. He was inspired to start making his own music after seeing GRiZ live at Michigan’s Electric Forest Festival five years ago.

Freely has built a following playing house parties and shows at a variety of Sioux Falls venues.

Audiophiles make the best DJs, and few illustrate this better than musicians Thomas Hentges and Brogan Costa. The pair are longtime fixtures of the Sioux Falls music scene, and over the years, each has amassed a vast and diverse record collection. What has resulted is a DJ collective that has something for everyone.

Hentges describes it as an eclectic mix of music spanning all ages and genres. Some might view it as a hipper version of dueling pianos.

Freely likes to keep his audience engaged by putting a “funky, melodic twist” on old-school hip hop beats. He admires artists who are making something truly unique in a scene that’s “saturated with heavy dubstep and bass house,” and says he enjoys artists like Canada’s SkiiTour and France’s CloZee. “CloZee has a super unique approach to making music,” explained Freely. “She has this one track called Koto and it legitimately takes you into an old kung fu movie, where two samurai are about to charge each other in battle. Highly recommend.”

This summer is going to be big for Freely, who plans to get a radio show off the ground, make some new music, and of course, tear it up at some great outdoor festivals.

As far as the 605 Summer Classic goes, Freely is excited to see all of the artists “show this town what we are.”

“You could hear songs from Nancy Sinatra, Ernest Tubb, Kendrick Lamar, The Kinks, and Wilson Pickett all within a 20 minute frame of time,” he said.

“I often plan several small themed sets, but we usually end our gigs with what we call ‘back-and-forth spins.’

The wild card section of the night keeps us on our toes, only having a few minutes to cue up an appropriate track to follow whatever the other one just threw down.”

Southern California culture is the chief inspiration behind Infinite Revolutions. Hentges likes how many Los Angeles bars have guest DJs several nights a week, adding, “We love the juxtaposition of both music and visuals in these unique spaces and the vibe it sets.”

New This Year Experience even more music with 12 bands and earlier start times of 5 p.m.

Friday and 2 p.m. Saturday (beer tasting 2-5 p.m.).

Hentges and Costa want to help create a positive vibe for this year’s 605 Summer Classic, and more than anything, they want to be the soundtrack to everyone’s great time.

O EAGLE BAR AND STEAKHOUSE

BY ALANA SNYDER

608 Main St. // Deadwood // (605) 578-1394 // Facebook

SEX ON THE BEACH

TRY IT: We didn’t get to them, but these items are on our list for next time…

Literally if there is any excuse to stop in town, we’ll will be there, especially when we hear there is a newer steakhouse that has gourmet burgers.

SALADS.

BURGERS & CHICKEN

ULTIMATE BACON BURGER

Covered with a fried egg, cheddar cheese, chipotle mayo, and two strips of bacon.

Things were looking up, as a sign near the entrance read they have “the best burgers in Deadwood.” Bring it on (and not in a cocky way, I mean bring it on, I’m starving).

SANDWICHES

Another sign told the story of the M.B. Wilson Building.

The upper floor in the 1930s and 1940s was home to the Shasta Rooms, one of Deadwood’s brothels, and it once housed an automobile garage and electrical service.

MATT’S PORK CHOP SANDWICH

A giant cubed pork chop, battered, and fried. Served with pickles and onion on a cream ale bun.

COD SANDWICH

A huge battered cod filet served with a tart sauce on a cheese and onion baguette.

The vibe of the place seemed to play off of the automobile garage history with collections of license plates and a vintage car, among other antique finds.

CERTIFIED ANGUS BEEF STEAKHOUSE SIRLOIN SALAD

RIBEYE

Flavorful and juicy due to its rich marbling (20 oz.).

FRIDAY NIGHT’S SMOKED PRIME RIB

Smoked in-house every Friday, just for you! Ask server about availability (12 oz. or 16 oz.).

At this point the anticipation was killing me.

DINNER FEATURES

MARINATED STEAK TIPS

Hand-cut, house-marinated steak tips, approximately eight ounces.

World’s best? So many confident statements!

BLOODY MARY

EAGLE WINE BURGER

With Havarti cheese and Smokin’ Dixie Mayo.

Eagle Bar and Steakhouse is located on Main Street and is connected to the Nugget Saloon through a merchandise store, which has the same ownership. Looking out the windows, you get a view of Mineral Palace.

Our server explained the restaurant gets cocktails from the Nugget Saloon, and informed us they’re “home of the world’s best Bloody Mary.”

CRISPY CHICKEN SALAD

Mixed greens topped with golden fried chicken.

Twist my arm, 605 art director Liz Painter and I drove in from Spearfish after a full day of collecting content to give it a try.

My coworker and I were greeted by our friendly server and executive chef and general manager Bob Godich.

Godich informed us that they grind their own sirloin daily, and that they proudly serve Angus Certified Beef.

\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\

D

eadwood is a favorite spot for the 605 staff, as the team feels transported back to the late 1800s, when laws were loose and the whiskey was flowing.

SMOKED PORK CHOPS

Two giant bone-in smoked chops smothered in BBQ sauce.

ADD ONS

Add two jumbo grilled shrimp to any entrée. Add sauteed mushrooms or onions.

SIDES

Gourmet mac 'n' cheese, garlic fries, fresh veggies, house salad, mashed potato, baked potato (load potato for .99).

O EAGLE BAR AND STEAKHOUSE CONT. ROTISSERIE CHICKEN

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

EAGLE BAR HAS AN IMPRESSIVE TAP LIST The steakhouse has a variety of local craft beers, like:

CANYON CREAM ALE & PILE O’DIRT PORTER CROW PEAK BREWING COMPANY MANGO CREAM ALE MINER BREWING CO. KNUCKLEHEAD RED ALE KNUCKLE BREWERY + NATIONAL CRAFT BEERS LIKE BIG WAVE FROM KONA. ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

We had to order the “world’s best,” and also ordered a Sex on the Beach.

The Sex on the Beach was a creamy, dessert-like drink that made us feel like we were on vacation.

The Bloody Mary was epic.

It was like it was someone’s last day on earth and they got one more trip to the Bloody Mary bar. There were carrots, asparagus, a garlic clove, lemon, lime, a pickle, olives, and smoked bacon (I could be missing something).

Yes, the drink was delicious and packed a punch, and yes, it also almost doubled as a salad.

Speaking of salad, up first for our dishes was the Steakhouse Sirloin Salad.

The iceberg lettuce with onion, tomato, croutons, and a hard boiled egg was topped with a seven-ounce grilled Certified Angus Beef sirloin steak.

As you should at a steakhouse, we ordered it with blue cheese dressing.

After taking a few bits of the

6 6 \\\\\\\\\ J U N E

salad, I found myself honing in on just the beef with hard boiled egg, dipping them in dressing.

“This meat is good,” said Liz, focusing on just that part of the meal as well.

Next up was the Rotisserie Chicken. This juicy half chicken was fried and golden brown. It was served with a breadstick, veggies, and loaded potato with bacon, sour cream, and cheese. The pieces of bacon were off the chain (I’m bringing it back) and the chicken was flaky and melted right off the bone.

Our “veggie medley” consisted of carrots, broccoli, and green beans. By the time I devoured the chicken with the fresh vegetables, I didn’t even need the breadstick, which I usually am obsessed with.

“I’m full by the time I get to the breadstick, but if I have to eat the breadstick, I’m not mad about it,” my co-worker stated. And she was right.

Now the baked potato was

SMOKED PRIME RIB

FOOD + DRINK

a different story. While the bacon was mouthwatering and delightful, it was doused with sour cream. Again, not usually mad about this type of problem, but it almost was too much. If this is my biggest problem right now, I’m a lucky gal.

And now on to the gourmet burgers.

The Stroganoff Burger came the table, smothered with mushroom gravy, sour cream, and onion. Our side was the Garlic Fries, which were thick and crunchy.

As I was overwhelmed by the charbroiled half-pound burger, which came with a side of more gravy (g’bless), Liz had to stop me from getting too full off of the fries.

In order to share and to consume (no one wants to see that), we cut the burger in half. It was delicious, very messy, and only had the downfall of being a little too mushroom heavy.

We were finishing up our burger, when we actually gasped when the giant Smoked Prime Rib sandwich came out.

We thought we were done, and hallelujah, this masterpiece arrived.

BOTTOM LINE:

Served with a side of heaven’s dip, or as others call, au jus, we stared at it, making a game plan of how to tackle it. Seeming like the Leaning Tower of Pisa, we tipped it over with a knife and split it into two tins.

South Dakota is known for its beef, and this location is a can’t miss. From in-house ground sirloin to smoked prime rib, there are plenty of ways to experience it. For those not feeling beef, there are other options like Smoked Pork Chops, Jumbo Shrimp, Caesar Salad, and more.

I tell you, the breaded onion with the half-pound prime rib was so scrumptious.

SASSY STOOLS

“People take photos there constantly,” said Bob Godich of the derrière bar stools with legs. While they could seem like a random feature elsewhere, they fit in at the Eagle Bar and Steakhouse for two reasons: it’s Deadwood, so why not, and they don’t seem out of place amongst the diverse décor. Bonus: Some even have a lower back tattoo.

FOR AN ATTRACTION O BIG THUNDER GOLD MINE 604 BLAIR ST.

Grab a hard hat and visit the Big Thunder Gold Mine for a combination of mining, history, and geology.

Start with the museum, which is a replicate of the Tykoon Gold Mill.

“We have the largest collection of mining equipment in the Black Hills.

It’s from five different mines that were taken down, including the Homestake Mine,” said president Sandi McLain.

C RA F T C O C K TA I L S , TA S T Y B RE WS, & A LOV E LY W I N E S E LE C T I O N .

Many items have been donated by families who had a family member pass who were involved in mining. These pieces make up how gold was processed and have informational plaques, along with more background on historical mining figures like A.I. Johnson.

“THE [MINERS] GOT TO THE END AND FOUND OUT IT WAS A LOWER CARAT OF GOLD AND ONLY TOOK 10 TOTAL OUNCES OUT OF THE MINE. BACK THEN 90 PERCENT OF ALL THE MINERS THAT WENT TO A GOLD RUSH LEFT JUST AS POOR AS THEY CAME.” - SANDI MCLAIN

Get hands-on with two types of gold panning (on-site or off-site), plus gem panning, at “the last known mining community established in the gold rush.” The popular off-site Claim Panning (claim), is just like what miners experienced at Big Thunder in 1892 along the creek sifting for gold. Discover gold? Patrons keep what they find.

If you’re lucky, you’ll learn from the best - “Rattlesnake” Randy - who is a gold miner and California State Gold Panning Championship Medalist in Speed Panning.

See more of the process by taking a guided tour through the authentic gold mine to see the conditions miners endured. Bonus: Big Thunder Gold Mine is wheelchair accessible and is for all ages.

Hungry? Visit their family bar and grill with an ice cream parlor. Food options include Miner’s Pastries & Stew, Elk Medallions, Wild Game Brats, and more.

Open Monday-Sunday 9 a.m. - 5 p.m.

O RUBY HOUSE 124 WINTER ST.

Located on the Winter Street boardwalk, step back in time at Ruby House.

The turn-of-the-century restaurant is open April through October, and is decorated with 1800s decor with an eclectic collection of antiques.

Steve and Linda Zwetzig have owned and operated the Ruby House for over 23 years, and their daughter and general manager, Brandi Hunsaker, has been an co-owner since 2003.

“It is truly a local family-owned and operated business,” said Hunsaker. “I think a lot of why people like Ruby House is the atmosphere, as well as the great food. When people walk through the front door, they feel like they are stepping back in time into the Old West.”

The menu offers a wide range of offerings, from Pub House Pollock Melt to New Orleans Cajun Pasta to Coconut Shrimp.

“IT’S A STAPLE OF KEYSTONE. YOU THINK OF MOUNT RUSHMORE, YOU THINK OF THE RUBY HOUSE.” - JUSTIN STRAW

“I think we have a great genre of Americanized food,” said server Justin Straw. “It’s like fun Tex-Mex down to burgers and fries, and we have a great appetizer selection, so we kind of hit every category of what people want.”

But their staple is everything buffalo, including items like the Ruby House Specialty, Buffalo Stew in a Bread Bowl, a homemade buffalo stew served in a warm bread bowl with a dinner salad, and the Buffalo Ribeye Steak, a 10 oz. buffalo steak full of flavor served with soup or salad, choice of potato, rice, or steamed broccoli.

Engaged or know someone getting married? Ruby House hosts events upstairs at Red Garter Receptions by Justin Straw Designs.

“I handle all the bookings and details of it all, and just coordinate and plan it all through us,” said Straw. “The cool thing about us when it comes to the wedding venues is we don’t charge for the space, we just make you guys get minimums with us, so it’s like investing back into your own wedding.”

HE’S BEEN AROUND A LONG TIME, AND IT’S STILL FAMILY-RUN.” - LISA SCHAEFFER Open April through October, the local favorite is always exciting with employees also in costume and changing drink specials.

“We switch up our specials all the time for the spring, summer, fall, and winter features,” said Schaeffer. “Everything [in the saloon] is 1800s in character. Our servers are in character, our bartenders are in character, and you can’t miss the gunfights, which are family-friendly.”

There are also family-friendly drinks for kids, like 1800 Soda Fountain Features, which include a Sarsaparilla or Lil’ Miss Rudy (a Shirley Temple or Roy Rogers in a garter-wrapped hurricane glass - customers keep the garter).

For adults, try domestics, import/speciality, or local and national craft beers. Want to feel like someone from the Old West? Try Sample the West with different whiskeys, or order a more tame version with a local beer flight.

Looking for liquor to-go? Check out Madam Ruby’s Liquor Store in the saloon, which is Keystone’s only liquor store.

Whatever you do, don’t forget to stop by the merchandise section or to order a specialty glass to remember your experience.

Learning to Garden (Life)

BY TRACY KIRBY CRISTA BALLARD PHOTOGRAPHY At the time of this writing, we are in full planting mode out here in this ‘ole prairie. Things are finally turning green, buds are popping out new life, bugs are preparing their annual assault on house and human, hints of colored flowers are making their appearance, and spring allergies are wreaking their rhythmic havoc on nasal passages.

after many years of experience I do not yet possess, I do have colossal (albeit false) hopes at one day becoming a real, true gardener.

AFTERWARD, EVERY DAY FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS, MY DAUGHTER WOULD ASK WHEN THE TULIPS WOULD BLOOM. EVERY TIME I WOULD TELL HER “AFTER WINTER IS OVER.”

Before we get to it, let it be known far and wide that I am a very amateur gardener with no real knowledge on what I’m doing. Sure, I know the basics. Good soil plus water plus seed equals (yay!) plants. But all the nuances in between that one garners

I suppose I can say the same thing about my role as a mother.

In fact, in this spring season of planting, I have been seeing so many parallels with parenting. Much like my knowledge in gardening, my parenting knowledge is amateur. I feel like I know the very basics on how to nurture and help a child thrive. But all the maturity, all the expertise, all the wisdom? I haven’t been a parent long enough to

Little Parent on the Prairie FOLLOW TRACY ON HER BLOG, LITTLEPARENTONTHEPRAIRIE.COM

LIFESTYLE

know all of that. Yet, I have high hopes of being the best mother I can be for my children. But, sometimes I feel like I’m planting and watering, planting and watering, planting and watering and seeing well, little to no results.

Last fall, I found myself straying around the jumbo-size laden aisles of Costco eating my body weight in salmon spread and cracker samples. Somewhere along the way, I noticed a crowd gathering around a small area of the store, and I casually ventured over to see what kind of succulent snack was drawing a crowd.

But instead of a food demo, I found a crate loaded high with dirty bags of tulip bulbs. Feeling slightly let down by my shopping peers, I watched as people excitedly grabbed the bags and loaded them into their carts.

Curious, I picked up a bag myself and read the directions: “Plant before first freeze in the fall for a beautiful yield of tulips next spring.”

NEXT SPRING? I WONDERED. PEOPLE ARE GOING CRAZY FOR SOMETHING THEY WON’T EVEN GET TO ENJOY UNTIL NEXT SPRING? Call it peer pressure, I figured my fellow Costco members could not be wrong in their frenzied bargain purchases, so I threw a bag in my cart en route to the next sampling station.

The night before the first freeze, I enlisted the help of my daughter, and we dug circles around a few trees and our mailbox and planted the bulbs according to their specified directions. Afterward, every day for a couple of weeks, my daughter would ask when the tulips would bloom. Every time I would tell her “after winter is over.” Disappointed that her need for instant gratification wasn’t met, she sulked every time I told her we had months to wait to reap the rewards of our planting efforts.

Like her, I myself had doubts. How trustworthy were those Costco tulips bulbs? Had I followed the instructions

close enough? Will the ground really ever truly unthaw? Will life ever bloom from our efforts?

As spring came closer, I peered out my bedroom window to our front lawn every morning to see if I saw any signs of growth. Nothing. Weeks later. Nothing.

I began to think my purchase at Costco and the back-breaking work that is bulb planting was all for naught. Then the blizzard of April 2018 came. Then, I really felt despair. Then, it snowed again four days later. Then, I was really convinced the frigid conditions had caused the bulbs themselves to decide to just give up and say, “Forget you, guys! To dust I shall return!”

FINGER LICKIN’ FUN. AUGUST 11 BROOKINGS | SWIFTEL CENTER

But, then something miraculous happened. One rainy day, the slightest peep of green started showing from where we planted. Then, more green became visible. Then, more. And now, today, we have full bloomed flowers.

Life prevailed. Our planting efforts prevailed.

I think the same is true in parenting.

All the seeds we planted, all the times we watered, all the times we repeated ourselves over and over and over until we wanted to punch our own selves in the face. All of it will not be for naught. We will see the blooms of kindness when we plant them in great measure and water by example.

We will see the blooms of patience, of love, of gentleness, of compassion… of all the things we diligently allow to be planted and watered in them. We may not see any sign of it for a long time, but then, something miraculous will happen: Bits and pieces will begin to become visible.

The Costco bulbs coupled with our eternal winter taught me something. They taught me hope. Today, I have hope that all the planting we are doing in our children’s lives are taking root somewhere. Even when we think the harsh worldly conditions have snatched them away… I have hope we will see them bloom.

ASK THE JOHNS

Know Your SD

+ YES, ALL THREE OF THESE GUYS ARE NAMED JOHN. YES, IT WAS A POPULAR NAME IN THE ‘80S. THE IDENTITY OF THESE THREE AMIGOS HAVE BEEN ALTERED TO PROTECT THE INNOCENT. HAVE A QUESTION FOR THE JOHNS? SHOOT AN E-MAIL THEIR WAY AT THEJOHNS@605MAGAZINE.COM.

WHENEVER I INVITE MY FRIEND TO SOMETHING, HE BRINGS A GROUP OF PEOPLE WITH HIM. SOMETIMES I KNOW THEM, SOMETIMES I KIND OF KNOW THEM, AND SOMETIMES THEY'RE STRANGERS. IS IT WRONG TO CLARIFY TO COME ALONE NEXT TIME?

JR: Maybe you should stop being such a whiner and make new friends? I would give anything to make more friends.

All I have is my par… er… roommates.

JW: Start charging a cover charge, and just don't charge regulars (people that you invited). When randoms show up, just collect 20 dollars or bounce them out of there.

JT: This might be a time to pick your battles. Unless their friends are really bothering you, it’s always fun to meet new people.

You could always just do one-onones with them?

I'VE BEEN SEEING THIS GUY, AND IT'S AT THE POINT WHERE I'VE ASKED HIM TO STAY THE NIGHT SEVERAL TIMES. EACH TIME HE CLAIMS HE CAN'T SLEEP WITHOUT HIS FAN ON, AND I EVEN TOLD HIM I HAVE A FAN, BUT HE SAYS, "IT'S NOT THE SAME." DO I JUST ASK HIM WHAT KIND OF FAN TO GET, OR WHAT IS HIS DEAL?

JR: Go on Amazon and order every fan you can. Then, when you bring them into your room for your "appointment," he’ll be so happy to see so many fans.

From table fans, pedestal fans, window fans, wall-mount fans, floor fans, tower fans, ceiling fans, box fans, misting fans, industrial fans, decorative fans, and even a bathroom exhaust fan. If you can't afford that, just blow on him when he sleeps.

Then change your name in his phone to “fan girl.” He'll never forget you...

I LIKE TWO DIFFERENT PEOPLE AT THE SAME TIME, AND I'M NOT SURE WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT. SHOULD I PURSUE BOTH AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS? OR IS THAT MEAN?

JR: This could get nasty (in more ways than one). Do it, for the love of everyone watching, do it.

The average number of attendees Sioux Falls JazzFest brings to the jazz and blues festival.

JW: Three-some?

JT: It doesn’t hurt to keep your options open. Until it’s serious, see where it goes. Once one person seems to be making any sort of commitment, I would respect them and hone in on them if you’re feeling them.
