Buffalo Bill in South DakotaBuffalo Bill came. He was seen

by thousands. He conquered theirhearts.

“The Wild West Show and Con-gress of Rough Riders of the Worldhas come and gone and left im-pressions which time only will ef-face,” read an article in the DailyHuronite on Sept. 6, 1899. “Theshow is interesting, historicallyinstructive, intensely thrilling andimmeasurably pleasing.”

William Frederick Cody (1846-1917) was, among other things, anArmy scout, buffalo hunter, expertmarksman, town founder, actorand hero of highly sensationalizeddime novels. The word “showman”may have best defined his life,however.

Buffalo Bill’s Wild West amazedaudiences for more than 30 yearsas it traveled in the United Statesand Europe. Cody’s goal was to in-troduce the Old West to the rest ofthe world. Cody brought his largetouring company to South Dakotain September 1899, performing atWatertown, Huron, Aberdeen,Yankton, Mitchell and Sioux Falls.By then, Cody was one of the best-known persons of his time, accord-ing to Steve Friesen in “BuffaloBill: Scout, Showman, Visionary.”Cody’s show had previously vis-ited Sioux Falls, and would returnto South Dakota in 1909, 1912 and1914.

Crowds would have been daz-zled by feats of marksmanship,demonstrations of skills by inter-national horsemen and horse-women, spectacles of cowboy funsuch as roping and riding, atableau of Native American life, aPony Express relay race and an“attack” on a stagecoach.

And it wasn’t just any stage-coach wheeling at full speedaround an arena. It was the Dead-wood Stage.

The Deadwood Stage and tour-ing in South Dakota were notCody’s only connections to thestate.

When driving a wagon filledwith freight from Leavenworth,Kansas, to Salt Lake City, Utah,an 11-year-old Cody was bulliedby another teamster. James But-ler “Wild Bill” Hickok came toCody’s aid.

In 1872, Cody watched himselfbeing portrayed in New York’sBowery Theatre by a professionalactor. Cody thought he could playthe part of Buffalo Bill better thanan actor and formed Buffalo Bill’sCombination acting troop. Hickokjoined the acting troop for its1873-1874 season, then left theshow and returned to the West.When Hickok was shot in the backof the head in Deadwood in 1876,Cody wrote, “Thus ended the ca-reer of a lifelong friend of minewho, in spite of his many faults,was a noble man, ever brave and

He proceeded toward SittingBull’s home but stopped after amessage from President BenjaminHarrison asked him not to per-form the task. Sitting Bull wassoon dead, shot and killed whenLakota police officers went to Sit-ting Bull’s home to arrest him.

Cody met and had his picturetaken with other Lakota chiefs, in-cluding Red Cloud and AmericanHorse. He employed Lakota inBuffalo Bill’s Wild West andtreated them honorably, accordingto Friesen. Upon notice of BuffaloBill’s death, the Lakota assembledin council at Pine Ridge and senta telegram that read, in part, “TheOglalas had found in Buffalo Billa warm and lasting friend.”

Cody launched a film companyin 1913 with the idea of creating aseries of historical moving pic-tures, starting with the IndianWars. The movie was filmed on lo-cations on the Pine Ridge Reser-vation and used real soldiers andAmerican Indians from the reser-vation. The public showed little in-terest in the film, and only a fewfilm fragments and photographstaken during the filming remainof the movie The Indians Wars.Cody’s fame, however, lives on inthe hearts and minds of fans ofthe frontier West.

generous hearted.”Captain Jack Crawford was also

a member of the acting troop.Crawford was part of an expedi-tion that journeyed into the BlackHills in 1875. His letters telling ofhis experiences in the Black Hillswere sent to the Omaha DailyBee, and are contained in “Ho! Forthe Black Hills,” edited by PaulHedren and published by theSouth Dakota Historical SocietyPress.

Cody met another person des-tined to become a Black Hills leg-end when he met Calamity Janein 1874, according to James D.McLaird’s “Calamity Jane: TheWoman and the Legend.” Cody’sand Calamity Jane’s paths wouldcross over the years, but she nevertoured with Buffalo Bill’s WildWest, according to both McLairdand Friesen.

In 1885, learning that sharp-shooter Annie Oakley was nowperforming with Buffalo Bill’sWild West, Sitting Bull agreed tojoin the troop. The Lakota leaderwould ride slowly and in a digni-fied manner around the arena.Sitting Bull left the company afterfour months.

In late 1890, Cody was asked to

Reporting rule

violations

depends on

integrity

By Dana Hess for SDNASioux Falls Superintendent

Brian Maher joined the SouthDakota High School Activities As-sociation Board of Directors as itsnew representative for the state’stwo largest school districts.

A half-hour into his tenure,Maher was on the hot seat.

At issue was a self-reported vio-lation by Sioux Falls Lincoln. Theschool’s athletic director, Jim Dor-man, reported that uniformsmeant to be worn by the boys’ andgirls’ basketball teams at four out-of-season events were insteadworn during a fall league.

The item was on the board’s con-sent agenda along with a similarself-reported violation from SiouxFalls Roosevelt. Items on the con-sent agenda are usually passed bythe board without discussion. Atthe request of board memberSandy Klatt, Brandon Valley, theLincoln violation was removedfrom the consent agenda for dis-cussion by the board.

“A major reason why we haveout-of-season rules is to protectstudent athletes from an overzeal-ous coach,” Klatt said. She saidparents of Lincoln players had re-ported eight violations to her, butthe SDHSAA board was only hear-ing one.

SDHSAA Executive DirectorWayne Carney said the violationswent back to 2014 and were han-dled as a local school issue.

Klatt asked if school policy vio-lations from past school yearsdon’t count when the board findsout about them.

“We’re not going back previousyears,” Carney said, “unless I’mtold differently by the board.” Car-ney said in cases where a violationis reported to the SDHSAA, it’spassed on to the school for inves-tigation. “You’re talking about theintegrity of the school,” Carneysaid. “If this incident had not beenself-reported, we would not haveknown.”

Board chairman Jason Utter-mark of Aberdeen said seeking toinvestigate violations in pastyears would “muddy the waters.We just have to trust the athleticdirectors to do their due dili-gence.”

The superintendent of the vio-lating school didn’t seem happy tobe addressing his new board forthe first time about an out-of-sea-son violation. “This issue gives meno delight,” Maher said. He saidhe believed it would be “unwise forthis board to step in and handleparent concerns.” He also advisedagainst looking back at past viola-tions. “I don’t know if going backtwo years changes our response orthe consequences,” Maher said.

As a consequence of the viola-tion, both Lincoln and Rooseveltboys’ and girls’ basketball pro-grams were placed on probationfor one year and a letter of repri-mand will be sent to the school ad-ministrations requesting detailedsteps be taken to assure that itdoesn’t happen again. The schools’responses are to be in theSDHSAA office by Jan. 13, 2016.

She has beennamed Katelynn Charlotte,weighed 9 lbs. 8 oz. and was 20inches long at birth. She has fourolder siblings — Kyler, Karmin,Karley and Kacy. Grandparentsare Ron and Linda Parsons ofNew Underwood and Clayton andCharlene Kjerstad of Wall. BeaRamsey of Spearfish, is the great-grandmother. Charlene Kjerstad went toSpearfish on Friday to visit heraunt Hazel Thompson and tohave an early Thanksgiving din-ner with her siblings at CleoRowe’s home. Steve and CindySeverson; Candee and John Kit-terman; Clay Ramsey and hissons, Landen and Colton; CathyJohnson of Rapid City; ClaudeRamsey and their mother BeaRamsey were in attendance. Alsojoining them were Kelli, Tyson

and Grayden Gunn. Later, DorcieJohner and Braden Andersoncame for supper. Anita Peterson and EdithPaulsen went to Rapid City onSaturday to attend the funeral forDonna Moler at the Cathedral ofOur Lady of Perpetual Help. Oursympathy goes out to all ofDonna’s family and friends. Shewas a very nice lady. Lyle Williams is in the RegionalHospital, Rapid City. I hear hewas taken there by ambulance onTuesday, November 10th. Wewish him well and hope he im-proves soon! Benny Wolf, uncle of Gary andKirby Keyser and Pam Blakesley,passed away on Friday, Novem-ber 13th, in California where heresided. He was a brother of MaryKeyser and the last surviving sib-ling of the Wolf family. We offerour sympathy to his wife LaRue,his family and friends. By proclamation of PresidentObama, all flags in the UnitedStates are to fly half-mast thisweek — Monday through Friday.It is to show respect for thosekilled in Paris over the weekendby terrorists. Mark and Darlene Poste spentFriday at the place in the country.They are still clearing debris fromflooding that had clogged a cul-vert going into the place. He hadtaken a picture of the tile barn inPeno Basin showing the great im-provement on the roof — as faras the Johnson’s have gottendone. They certainly have madeprogress. Enjoyed reading the ElmSprings news in last week’sCourant. Thank you, Tomilyn,and keep it up! Vicki Willuweit has taken on ahuge project as she has made out-door Nativity scenes out of woodfor the churches. First Evangeli-cal Lutheran Church had theirsdisplayed last year. They are veryimpressive and thanks for yourthoughtfulness, Vicki. November is more than halfover. Can you believe that?! The

weather for that time was not likeaverage fall weather — a lot ofvery nice warm days. We are get-ting it now, not as cold as thoseplaces that have snow but it isdefinitely colder. Factor in the

wind and it is COLD! Hope everyone has a nice“Happy Thanksgiving”! Got yourturkey in the freezer? Just re-mind yourself to take it out fortime to thaw.

Before you embark on a journeyof revenge, dig two graves.

Bits & Pieces: An “excused absence” from lastweek and a missed “Wasta Won-derings” An opportunity for a few dayswith my son, Scott, in Floridaarose and how could I not go? Helives in the more central — northto south and eastern coastal. Not quite as tropical as Miamiand still have those moments of“What is wrong with this pic-

ture?” when the visual includesboth palm and pine trees! Odd tome. Flowers in bloom, hibiscus,oleanders, pansies, marigolds,other, to us, common spring annu-als. Sitting pool side for morningcoffee, I thought I was watchingcrows as they gathered for coffeeor crow equivalent for social time,noisy guys with their opinionatedsquawks, moves to another

branch pal and then the, I sup-pose, leader flys over and off theygo! Scott educated me and my lackof bird knowledge that these guysare vultures common to Florida.Smaller and all black, they are“Black Vultures”. The “leader”was dubbed High Flying Hank ashe did fly and perch higher. Wild pigs roam freely in thisarea so it could be supposed thatthe excited behavior was due tothe spotting of a tasty and fra-grant carcass. Other entertaining critters?Frogs with “gription” feet climb-ing windows to catch lunch. Anabundance of small lizards andwater snakes (harmless). Worksfor me! A very good time with my son tojust visit, to just hang out. News around Wasta? A Thanks-giving potluck supper on Thanks-giving Day. Jamy and Ray Williams will beusing the community hall early inthe day with us taking the secondshift — 3:30/4:00. If you’re notgoing any where or not expectinga big crowd come on over! It might work even if you areexpecting a small group! There is a sign-up sheet in thepost office to avoid having toomuch turkey and no mashed po-tatoes. Or you could call MaryLewis 993-6152 or Margee Willey993-3149. Kids talk: Ken and DaneneSkillingstad’s granddaughters,Harmony and Honor, were quiteconcerned about pet dog Spud’sloose tooth that came out. “Grandpa, you have to put thetooth under Spud’s blanket in hisbasket so the tooth fairy cancome.” Discussion ensured about saidfairy and what is appropriate fordoggie Spud. Could Spud reallyappreciate or spend a dollar? Itwas decided that a doggie threatmight be what the tooth fairywould leave. Sure enough, Grandpa Kencould report on the early morningcall from grand-girls, that “Yes,the tooth fairy left a special treatfor Spud!” Question, “Did the tooth fairytake the tooth or leave it?” What delightful girls! How good to have Elm Springsnews again. I enjoy reading the“people I know stuff and also readFrances Poste’s Wall news andthe Country news. Thank youTomilyn! Yes, your cousin Matt isa hard act to follow as is for me,Mary Lewis, but we will just sol-dier on, okay? And, you’re lookinggood to me! The date has been set for theWasta Christmas potluck supper.Sunday, December 13, 5:00 p.m.at the Wasta Community Hall. Oh my, December 13 is anotherone of those “right round the cor-ner” times! Mark you calendar —plan to come. Remember: Thanksgivingpotluck supper on Thanksgiving,4:00 p.m. If you have a smallgroup coming to celebrate, bringyourself and them to the commu-nity hall and we’ll have a largegroup and lots of food and fun! Happy Trails!

Recently compiled statisticsshow that the South Dakota visi-tor industry is continuing its pos-itive momentum from the success-ful peak season through the fallmonths.

“All of our indicators are show-ing strong growth through Sep-tember,” said Jim Hagen, Secre-tary of the Department ofTourism. “We couldn’t be happierwith how things are looking, andwe’re proud of our industry and allof the hard work they put in to at-tract and welcome visitors.”

2016 Calendar Year-to-DateStatistics:

•Inquiries – 6.8 percent in-crease

• BBB Taxable Sales – 8.8 per-cent increase

• Tourism Taxable Sales – 16.3percent increase

• Lodging Taxable Sales – 10.7percent increase

• Promotion Tax Revenue – 23.1percent increase

• Gaming Revenue – 0.6 percentincrease

Tourism Industry remains strong

throughout shoulder seasonDespite strong results, the De-

partment of Tourism remainsaware of the need for innovativethinking.

“Our competitors are always in-novating, always growing theirbudgets, always trying newthings,” continued Hagen. “Thecompetition is no longer just ourneighboring states; it is truly theworld. As such, we can’t rest onour laurels.”

The Department’s shoulder sea-son marketing plans include bothtried-and-true methods for reach-ing potential visitors as well assome new elements that arereaching new people in newplaces.

For example, the Departmentpartnered with the Pedal-PoweredTalk Show out of Portland, Ore., totest some research that was show-ing a rise in inquiries from the Pa-cific Northwest. This partnershipwill showcase South Dakota to thearea in six online televisionepisodes beginning Nov. 12.

Additionally, the Department is

putting a focus on national parksthis fall by placing ads in NationalParks Magazine, National Geo-graphic Traveler, South DakotaMagazine and Nature Conser-vancy Magazine. This comes inadvance of the 100th anniversaryof the National Park Service andthe 75th anniversary of the com-pletion of Mount Rushmore Na-tional Memorial in 2016.

The Department will also havea presence in the 127th Rose Pa-rade® in January 2016. Thetheme of the parade, “Find YourAdventure,” grew out of a partner-ship between the Pasadena Tour-nament of Roses® and the U.S.National Park Service and willhelp shine a light on the centen-nial celebration of our country’snational park system.

The South Dakota Departmentof Tourism is comprised ofTourism and the South DakotaArts Council. The Department isled by Secretary Jim Hagen.

By Dana Hess for SDNAThe South Dakota High School

Activities Association Board of Di-rectors held a lengthy discussionWednesday about the nature of an“emergency” and the worth of thenumbers used to define the classin which a team will compete.

During the discussion, officialsfrom two school districts were try-ing to take the board’s tempera-ture to see if their situation wouldbe deemed an emergency so theycould form a three-year footballand girls’ basketball co-op.

The discussion was prompted bya request from Centerville to findout the board’s response to its planto join with Irene-Wakonda in thetwo sports.

The combined schools don’thave a problem with going up to9AA football. Irene Wakonda hasplayed at the 9A classification andCenterville has played at 9B. Theaddition of Centerville players willboost the combined team to 9AA.

The sticking point was the addi-tion of Centerville’s three girls’basketball players which wouldraise the combined team to ClassA whereas in the past Irene-Wakonda has played in Class B.

“We’re not bringing a whole lotof kids” to the co-op, said Center-ville Superintendent ChadConaway. “To bump them up toClass A for a short-term deal”seems unfair to Irene-Wakonda.

Irene-Wakonda SuperintendentDave Hutchison noted that hisdistrict’s school board did notwant the girls’ basketball team tomove up to Class A for three yearsand then move back to Class Bwhen the co-op dissolves.

“We are aware that there havebeen some exemptions for otherschools,” Conaway said.

Those exceptions led theSDHSAA executive staff to askthe board for guidance in futuresituations since over the pastthree years the board has allowedsome cooperative agreements thatput teams over the classificationlimits while denying others.

Assistant executive directorJohn Krogstrand said there havebeen so many co-operative agree-ments heard on a case-by-casebasis that there should almost bea separate board to consider thoseissues.

“Some schools are playing bythe rules, even though it’s not thebest situation for them,”Krogstrand said.

Schools that are suffering fromlow numbers have other options,Krogstrand said. They can foregothe playoffs or play a junior var-sity schedule.

“Saying no to a cooperativedoesn’t mean you can’t play,”Krogstrand said. He noted possi-ble cooperative partners for Cen-terville with Lennox, Beresford orVermillion.

Board chairman Jason Utter-mark of Aberdeen askedKrogstrand if he wanted the boardto bypass all emergencies and justgo by the numbers.

“I worry about that term ‘emer-gency’ being too broad,”Krogstrand said.

“The definition of an ‘emer-gency’ will be whatever this boardsays it is,” Uttermark said, addingthat if the staff wanted to try toset guidelines for how those emer-gencies would be determined, hewas sure the board would want tolook at that.

While the Centerville co-op wasa discussion item with no boardaction taken, both Conaway andHutchison said they would appre-ciate any direction they could getfrom the board.

Exceptions make it tougher to enforceHutchison said he has heard

from parents in his district whoare upset about the possibility ofa co-op with Centerville becausethey think a Centerville playermay take playing time away fromtheir child.

“We need to help our neighbor,”Hutchison said. “If we don’t, we’re

not very good neighbors.”Uttermark said that since the

board wasn’t going to take action,the superintendents would haveto judge from comments thatboard members made whetherthey wanted to proceed with thepaperwork for the cooperative.Conaway said they would.
