Welcome to this issue of Elevate, where we explore some of the toughest jobs around. You’ll learn about successful graduates of Western Dakota Tech’s truck driver training program (something that would have made my father proud). You’ll also get some insight into the Black Hills Stock show, which really is another way for us to talk about agriculture, one of the toughest industries around. And you’ll see what’s going on with one of our newest childcare
providers in town, Every Child Is Special, which was one of the recipients of Elevate Rapid City’s Childcare Loan Program. Starting a childcare business in the middle of a pandemic? That is as tough as it gets.
