SUMMARY:Mount Rushmore Society Featured at the Capitol Rotunda!
DESCRIPTION:Each holiday season\, South Dakota communities help transform the State Capitol in Pierre into a gathering place filled with Christmas trees\, lights\, and decorations. Nearly 100 trees fill the historic hallways and Rotunda\, with one featured as South Dakota’s official Christmas tree. \nThis year\, the Mount Rushmore Society is honored to decorate the featured tree\, joining organizations from across the state in celebrating this annual tradition. The Grand Lighting Ceremony will take place November 24 at 7 p.m. in the Capitol Rotunda. \nThe display reflects the creativity and care of volunteers representing communities\, schools\, churches\, businesses\, and nonprofit organizations.
