February 12, 2019 • Page 6 shop online at www.missourivalleyshopper.com State Historical Society Awards Protecting Our Way Of Life Four Historic Preservation Grants PIERRE, S.D. -- Historic preservation projects in Deadwood, Lead, Sioux Falls and Watertown have received matching grants from the South Dakota State Historical Society. “This historic preservation grants program is designed to encourage restoration or rehabilitation of historic properties and is one more way we can promote and protect our history and culture,” said Jay D. Vogt, director of the State Historical Society. “In 2018 we awarded $117,000 among 10 projects which had matching funds of $580,106. The resulting total public-private investment is $697,106.” The grants are awarded through the State Historical Society’s Deadwood Fund grant program. Funding for the program is from Deadwood gaming revenue earmarked by state law for historic preservation projects throughout the state. The program is administered by the society’s State Historic Preservation Office at the Cultural Heritage Center in Pierre. The following projects were the most recent to receive grants to supplement their work: • Deadwood (Lawrence County): Pearson Cabin, built around 1876; received $15,000 to complete cabin restoration • Lead (Lawrence County): Home- stake Opera House, built in 1914; received $12,500 to complete final design documents for the restoration of the theater • Sioux Falls (Minnehaha County): Grand Lodge and Library of the Ancient Free and Accepted Masons, built in 1924; received $12,500 for comprehensive façade masonry repairs • Watertown (Codington County): Olive Place, built in 1887; received $10,000 for roof restoration to replace asphalt shingles with wood shingles These new recipients represent a total award amount of $50,000 and matching funds of $347,400. The total anticipated public-private investment is $397,400. These figures are reflected in the 2018 statistics above. Deadwood Fund grants are awarded twice a year with grant application deadlines of Feb. 1 and Oct. 1. They are reviewed at the spring and winter meetings of the State Historical Society’s board of trustees.

By Gov. Kristi Noem I grew up in a family that always had a shotgun in the pickup; our vacations were spent hunting in the mountains. Even at an early age, I understood the way guns fundamentally made us more safe, secure, and free. Bryon and I have instilled those values in our kids too. See, in South Dakota, the right to bear arms isn’t just an abstract right. It’s our way of life. More than 230 years ago, the Founding Fathers of our country penned the Constitution that has since laid the framework of centuries of policies. Many things have changed since then, but our core American values have not. They so firmly believed in the importance of the freedom to bear arms that they enshrined it into the Constitution’s Second Amendment. I believe that right is just as important today as it was back then. The right to bear arms gives us an opportunity to talk with our kids about the values our country was founded on and allows us to pass on the heritage of living off the land and enjoying the culture we have right here in South Dakota. Our kids need to grow up respecting the values and protections the Constitution gives recognizing it’s a statement on what the government’s role in our lives should and should not be. I’m committed to defending our way of life. In late January, I signed my first bill into law. I’m proud to say that this bill – Senate Bill 47 – further protects the constitutionally given freedoms of law-abiding South Dakotans. Constitutional carry, also called permitless carry, is a policy change that has been under consideration in Pierre for several years. The policy was debated and vetted. My administration – as well as many legislators – took time to listen to South Dakotans, law enforcement, and industry experts on this issue. That robust and thoughtful process produced the version I signed into law. I’m grateful to the legislative leadership who pulled the bill across the finish line. This legislation removes the requirement to obtain a permit in order to lawfully carry a firearm for self-defense. It further gives South Dakotans the freedom to choose the best method of carrying for them. I believe this constitutional carry legislation will further protect the Second Amendment rights of South Dakotans, once again reaffirming our culture – our South Dakota way of life – for the next generation.
