Hello Everyone,
Can you believe that the 4th of July is already upon us! I remember watching fireworks with my family on Lake Erie so every year i get the nostalgia from those summers. I have to say though that some of the best fireworks I have ever seen have been over the Open Cut here in Lead. Speaking of that, do you want the most breathtaking view of the fireworks this year??…we still have tickets available for the Fireworks Viewing Party at the Sanford Lab Homestake Visitor Center. They are just $50 a ticket and you get drinks and heavy apps, plus the best view around! We have also finalized the PubCrawl and added a new local band to the schedule. For all details visit leadmethere.org/goldcampjubilee.
And I have talked with the Fire Department, so far so good to continue with the show!
Thank you to our Sponsors City of Lead, Couer Wharf, Black Hills Energy, Lynn’s Dakotamart, Homestake Mining Co., Bar-Sto, Agnico Eagle, Thyssen Mining, Kiewit, Whitetail Creek Resort, and 95.1 KSKY.
