elcome to Lennox. If you are looking for a new home or are just visiting we hope you like it here. Lennox, like many small towns, is proud to show you what a lot of volunteers of all ages working together can accomplish.

The Municipal Band is a group of volunteer musicians from Lennox and the surrounding area who get together to entertain at the park every Thursday night during the summer as well as at area fairs.

The Ambulance squad has a mix of full time and volunteer members who work together with our volunteer Fire Department to take care of emergency needs for Lennox and the surrounding area.

The Garden Club has been together for many years and takes care of the flowers at the park. It is a big job so they are always looking for new members if you have a green thumb. The beautiful flowers are just one of the reasons that we are proud of our park. One doesn’t need to look too far to see the ongoing improvements in the park. Ball games for all ages have begun with many volunteer coaches involved. The swimming pool has been sand blasted and painted for the swimming season.

Plan to be here for our Old Fashioned 4th of July celebration. The Commercial Club spends many hours planning activities for the day. Starting with Cruise Night on July 2nd, activities on the Fourth include a road race, parade, arts in the park, softball and baseball games, band concert and fireworks. Come early and plan on spending the day. You will be glad you did.

Walking downtown one can see continued work inside and out to improve our small town. We appreciate the efforts of all our volunteers, citizens and businesses who are working together to make our community one that we can be proud of and you will want to call home.

Lennox had its beginning with the establishment of the Milwaukee railroad branch through the area in 1879.

Settlement in the Lennox territory gained momentum during the decade of the 1870’s.

Lennox was named after B. G. Lennox, private secretary to S.S. Merrill, Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul & Pacific railroad executive.

In its early years it was known as Ben Lennox, although it was shortened a short time later.

A rich history…

LENNOX SOUTH DAKOTA

The City’s rich history is preserved through the effort of the Lennox Area Historical Society and shared with the public through the Lennox Museum.

The LAHS opens the Museum for tours upon requests.

Take me out to the ballgame…

LENNOX BALL DIAMONDS, PARK & RECREATION Lennox has a rich history in baseball, its origin began in the decade of the 1880’s and has since figured prominently in the community. The Lennox Baseball Association, comprised of local volunteers, was largely responsible for upgrading the baseball diamond, making it a quality field that draws local teams and state tournaments, and making extensive improvements on the softball fields. Members of Lennox’s Park and Rec Board are committed to providing ball opportunities for all of the community’s youth. To register for Lennox Park and Rec events visit http://www.lennoxparkandrec.com.

Summer months are a busy time for the ball diamonds in Lennox! Hardly a night goes by that you can’t take in a game! Westerman Park’s large baseball diamond hosts high school, Lennox Amateurs, Lennox Legion and Teener games.

Youth teams and church league utilize the softball diamonds. Young up-andcoming players use the T-ball field on 7th Ave. and Blaine.

2) The Diversity Index is a scale of 0 to 100 that represents the likelyhood that two persons, chosen at random from the same area, belong to different race or ethnic groups. If an areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s entire population belongs to one race AND one ethnic group, then the area has zero diversity. An areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s diversity index increases to 100 when the population is evenly divided into two or more race/ethnic groups. Based on Census 2010 counts, the Diversity Index for the United States was 60.6 and it is expected to increase to 64.8 by July 1, 2018.
