  • Patriotic Pageantry: Presidential Visits to South Dakota
    Copyright © 2001 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. Patriotic Pageantry: Presidential Visits to South Dakota Harold H. Scbuler outh Dakota citizens came out by the thousands to welcome thirteen presidents from 1899 to 1999. Flags and bunting float- Sed from rooftops and doorways, bands played, and bells rang to mark each gala occasion. Cheering crowds jammed parade routes and strained to catch sight of the president. A hol- iday atmosphere surrounded the visit of William McKinley, the first presidential visitor to the state, when an estimated one hun- dred thousand people gathered in city streets and at railroad depots to see him. The only nineteenth-centur>' president to visit South Dakota, McKinley was also the only president unaccom- panied by the Secret Service. Established in 1865 to investigate rampant counterfeiting, the agency was not charged with pro- tecting the president until after McKinley's assassination in 1901. Throughout the 1900s, presidential visits continued to be awe- inspiring public events, with thirty-six South Dakota cities host- ing at least one president. More than patriotic pageantry for just one man, these visits were also the story of a traveling White House amidst a swirl of Secret Service security, press corps, and politics. William McKinley, 14 October 1899 n the third year of his presidency. William McKinley agreed to visit South Dakota on 14 October 1899 as a part of a mid- Iwestern tour. It may well have been the state's biggest one- day celebration as the president "was met with tlie most enthu- siastic ovation at every point," the Aberdeen Daily Neu)S report- ed.

  • Read Papers Presented at the Conference
    The Kaisers Totebag: Fundraising, German-Americans and World War I Richard Muller, M.S.S The Kaiser’s Tote bag: Fundraising, German-Americans and WW I Germans are nothing if not about tradition, loyalty, symbolism and generosity. These traits, while not unique to Germans, German-Americans or any ethnicity for that matter, are examined here in the context of generating financial and moral support for various factions engaged in fighting WW I. Two families, one from South Dakota, one from New York City provide the context for this paper. England and France were using loans and war bonds to pay for their role in the Napoleonic War and WW I. The United States eventually followed suit, when it entered the war. Fundraising to support war is nothing new. Fundraisers have used “Thank you Gifts” to help raise money for decades. In the fundraising business there is an old adage, if it works once, beat it to death. 148 In this case, Frederick III took a page out of his great grandfather’s fundraising playbook noting how Frederick I funded the Napoleonic War of 1813. Then, the Prussian Royal family asked loyal German citizens for their gold (rings, jewelry, dinnerware, etc.) to support the Kaiser’s need for the materials of war. In exchange for their donation, they received an iron ring, following the practice of “a ‘Thank You Gift’ in return for a quality, soon to be appreciated premium.” This was a sort of “Thank you” gift at the time, much like today’s fundraisers offer tote bags and coffee mugs for donations.

  • Foundation's 2018 Annual Report
    his was a significant year for the Trail of Governors with the addition of three more governors adding up to 22 life-size bronze governor statues now featured in South Dakota’s capital city. TMany have heard the story of the trail’s start: This project began during a conversation along downtown Pierre Street. Fellow Pierre businessmen Leroy Foster and Rick Jensen conjured up the idea of this trail to laude South Dakota’s governors. The project was soon launched with zero funds but five other eager volunteers. Now, just eight years later, funds from generous do- nors are being invested in South Dakota’s unique history lesson. The Trail of Governors Foundation does not have any staff. It has no office and no phone. What it does have are seven determined volunteer board members, each with a fervent wish to see this trail become reality. The foundation has a handful of enthusiastic advisors from the area and around the state that are devoted to making this project happen. Donors for this ambitious project hail from throughout the state and across the United States. Governor families and friends from throughout the country support the trail with generous donations and great enthusiasm. Each bronze statue costs the Trail of Governors Foundation $72,000. Those contributing one-quarter or $18,000 of a statue receive naming rights on that statue’s plaque. All donations are tax-deductible. The foundation has raised more than $1.7 million dollars for the statues at this point. We have raised $20,450.29 endowment funds. That means we have about $500,000 left to finish funding 31 governors’ statues on the trail.

  • I Mages of Governors Robert Vessey, Peter Norbeck and George S. Mickelson Once Again Enhance South Dakota's Capital City of Pi
    mages of Governors Robert Vessey, Peter Norbeck and George S. Mickelson once again enhance South Dakota’s Capital City Iof Pierre where all left their mark years ago. The Trail of Governor’s Foundation unveiled bronze statues honoring the governors on Nov. 1, 2014 in a Capitol Rotunda celebration that also commemorated South Dakota’s 125th anniversary of statehood. The annual unveiling ceremony, previously held on or adjacent to Flag Day, moved in observance of this special anniversary. South Dakota Gov. Dennis Daugaard shared historical glimpses and character traits for each honored governor. Family members representing the governors as well as others with a historical tie or appreciation celebrated the leaders’ contributions to the state. 2014 ANNUAL REPORT Arthur Mellette – 1st Governor of South Dakota 2014 Trail of Governors Annual Report Governor Robert Vessey Gov. Robert Vessey was funded by the South Dakota Retailers Association for which he was a founding member in 1897. The four unveiling his statue were SDRA Executive Director Shawn Lyons, SDRA Board President DeLon Mork, former SDRA Attorney/Lobbyist Ron Olinger who is a Vessey donor along with his wife Linda, and former SDRA Ex- ecutive Director Jerry Wheeler who the Olingers honored with their donation. Vessey’s bronze likeness harkens back to the days when he was a retail shop owner. Artists Lee Leuning and Sherri Treeby illustrated Vessey in early shop- keeper garb with an apron over business attire, and his smile and raised hands greet a well-known customer. Vessey’s resume reflects a multi-faceted man who was not only governor and shop owner, but wore several other hats as well.
