With less than two months to go before the start of the 2024 State Highpointers Konvention from July 18^th to 20^th at the Best Western Ramkota, this year’s chairperson would like to share some reminders and updates.

First, the deadline for receiving the discounted Highpointers Club group rate of $139 per night at the Best Western Ramkota is June 1^st.  While rooms may still be available after this date, regular rates will apply.  Call the front desk at 1-605-343-8550 and mention that you are with the Club!

Second, we have an awesome T-shirt design for SD-24 and have contracted with a local shop in Rapid City.  The T-shirts will bemade in Las Vegas, so we need to have a little bit of lead time to ensure they arrive in Rapid City in time for the Konvention.  The initial order will be submitted on June 10^th so if you want your T-shirt guaranteed, be sure to register before Monday, 6/10.  Online registration here:

The final two items: The site of the Watermelon Feast on July 20^th has been moved from Sylvan Lake to Stockade Lake adjacent to the George Stockade, where we will have our own dedicated area.  Tour buses will leave the Ramkota at 10:30 AM and return at 3:30 PM.  Lastly, if you plan to attend the event at Crazy Horse Memorial on 7/18 at 4 PM, please send a quick email to southdakotakonvention2024@gmail.com to let us know.  See you all in the Black Hills!

We are pleased to announce that we are able to confirm the summer open dates for 2024 at Charles Mound. The open dates will be:

Just a reminder that this is private land, so please be respectful during your visit. The owners ask that, as before, you park on the road and walk from there, no vehicles on their lane, and no pets. Please time your visit to occur during daylight hours.
