The event is meant as a celebration of the downtown area and the completion of work that began May of 2024 on the stretch of S.D. Hwy. 37 that travels through the downtown area.
It is also a focus on the future of the downtown area as the city has partnered with downtown business owners to invest heavily into the landscaping and look of the downtown area to give it a welcoming look for years to come.
