Good morning, Rapid City.
🏘️ Community
The Sturgis & Meade County Animal Shelter is full — its staff are caring for animals by placing dogs in foster care and housing cats in areas like the kitchen and office.
Sturgis Police Chief Geody VanDewater said residents should avoid abandoning pets to help ease the shelter’s burden.
📰 Economy
Owners of Fort Hays Old West Town said their summer was brutal with revenues dropping by 20 to 40% as tourism slowed because of lower spending, fewer Canadian visitors and rising inflation—trends seen across state attractions.
State tourism officials expect a boost in fall with events like the Custer State Park Buffalo Roundup and the upcoming pheasant hunting season.
