Hello Everyone,
The busy season is upon us with the start of Memorial weekend! Are you prepared? I have called around to some of the lodging businesses in Lead and they are booked up for this weekend. And please do not forget that we have the Black Hills Renaissance Festival happening Friday Saturday and Sunday. There will be bounce houses, vendors, activities, mead/beer and live performances, so come on out and join us while wearing your renaissance era garb! I will be around all weekend long running back and forth from the Ren Fest at the Park, around to Lead businesses, to my bakery, and then back to Ren Fest. Catch me if you can!
