Trail of Governors Foundation 2017 Annual Report TRAIL OF GOVERNORS FOUNDATION 2017 ANNUAL REPORT he year 2017 was historic for the South Dakota Trail of Governors with the unveiling of four bronze statues as opposed to three in prior years. TGovs. Tom Berry, Leslie Jensen, Sigurd Anderson and Joe Foss were honored with the unveiling of life-size statues on June 16, 2017 at the Capitol Rotunda. “No other state honors their formers governors the way we do in South Dakota,” said Trail of Governors Foundation President Rick Jensen. “This is particularly remarkable since Pierre has the country’s second-smallest population for a state capital city. Despite that, this trail is a reality thanks to the generosity of our donors.” Governor family members and statue donors participated in the historic unveiling. Sculptors of the statues are John Lopez of Lemmon (Gov. Berry), James Michael Maher of Spearfish (Gov. Anderson), Lee Leuning of Sioux Falls and Sherri Treeby of Aberdeen (Gov. Foss), and James Van Nuys of Rapid City (Gov. Jensen). This was also the first year that the trail artists numbered four, with Van Nuys joining in the effort. The four newest statues were installed in September, expanding the Governor Joe Foss – 20th Governor of South Dakota M. Michael Rounds - 31st Governor of South Dakota trail to 19 statues. 2017 Trail of Governors Annual Report Gov. Tom Berry – 14th, 1933-1937 The primary donors for Gov. Berry’s statue are family and friends of the gov- ernor and First National Bank in Philip. Berry served from 1933 to 1937 as the state’s 14th governor. Artist Lopez’s concept of the governor features a hatchet in his hand, noting that Berry was known for carrying the tool as he campaigned for office, promising to cut the state’s budget. The bronze figure wears a cow- boy hat just as the governor from West River did, earning him the nickname of Cowboy Governor. Berry’s bronze is in the capital city’s downtown area on the corner of Pierre’s historic main street, Pierre Street and Dakota Avenue. Tom Berry - 14th Governor of South Dakota A vision to create a lasting legacy of South Dakota’s governors. 2017 Trail of Governors Annual Report Gov. Leslie Jensen – 15th, 1937-1939 Gov. Jensen’s statue was funded primarily by the governor’s family and friends and major trail supporters, Leroy and Charlene Foster. Jensen was the 15th governor, serving from 1937 to 1939. Jensen was sculpted by James Van Nuys and the governor is clad in a World War I uniform, acknowledging Jensen’s mil- itary service to his country and state. Van Nuys went to great lengths to find the correct uniform and accessories reflecting that era, including the hard-to-find military boots and spats. Jensen’s bronze likeness appropriately graces the front of the Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Building on the Capitol Complex. Leslie Jensen - 15th Governor of South Dakota A vision to create a lasting legacy of South Dakota’s governors. 2017 Trail of Governors Annual Report Gov. Sigurd Anderson – 19th, 1951-1955 Major donors for Gov. Anderson’s statue are Leroy and Charlene Foster, Man- sour Lincoln Karim and Ruth Muriel Karim, and Mark and Glennis Zarecky. Anderson served South Dakota from 1951 to 1955 as the 19th governor. Artist Maher told guests at the unveiling about his search through the state’s archives to find photos and evidence to help him capture Anderson. One of the photos Maher stumbled across showed not only Gov. Anderson, but also Maher’s own mother in the background at an official event. Maher’s depiction of Anderson shows the governor in front of a 1950s era microphone while addressing his constituents. Anderson is fittingly placed in front of the Anderson building, named in his honor, and across the street from the Capitol. Sigurd Anderson - 19th Governor of South Dakota A vision to create a lasting legacy of South Dakota’s governors. 2017 Trail of Governors Annual Report Gov. Joe Foss – 20th, 1955-1959 Gov. Foss’s statue was funded primarily by Dr. Frank and Pamela Foss, friends and family of the governor, Farm Credit Services of America, and Chuck and Bonny Schroyer. Foss was the state’s 20th governor, in office from 1955 to 1959. Artists Leuning and Treeby portrayed Foss in his World War II flight suit, look- ing up at the skies as he had often done during his years of flying military planes while in the U.S. Marine Corps and the Air National Guard. Foss peers above Capitol Lake from his vantage point in front of his namesake Foss Building on the state’s Capitol Complex.

Agrarian Radicals: The United Farmers League of South Dakota ALLAN MATHEWS Agricultural recessions have caused distress on several occasions among farmers in South Dakota and have given rise to protest movements that sounded the call for economic justice. The Peoples party, the Nonpartisan League, and the Farmer- Labor party were among these movements. In the 1890s South Dakotans joined the Peoples party and helped elect Populist- Democrat Governor Andrew E. Lee for two terms.* Just prior to World War I fanners joined the reform-minded Nonpartisan League in the search for relief and supported the candidates of the league. This support diminished when Progressive Republi- can Governor Peter Norbeck adopted many of the programs of the league as his own. In the mid-1920s farmers formed the Farmer-Labor party, and soon other reform movements followed. ^ The threat of foreclosure was the main reason for unrest in the 1920s. Farmers had earlier plunged into debt to enlarge their farms as heavy rains produced bumper crops and world markets sustained high prices. Suddenly, about 1924 rains 1. Alan L.

  • Closing Time: a Twenty-Five-Year Retrospective on the Life and Death
    Copyright © 2009 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. MARSHALL DAMGAARD Closing Time A Twenty-five-Year Retrospective on the Life and Death of the University of South Dakota at Springfield Twenty-five years ago, South Dakota Governor William J. Janklow and the state legislature closed the University of South Dakota at Spring- field and converted it into a minimum-security prison. The closing— contested bitterly in the capitol, the courts, and public meeting halls— climaxed almost a century of continuing debates over the existence of the school.1 The community of Springfield had built much of its identity and economy around the school, and residents mourned the loss. Today, the former campus is the site of Mike Durfee State Prison, but memories of the University of South Dakota at Springfield and the fight to keep it alive remain vivid. To visitors, Springfield seems an unlikely place for controversy. The little town is tucked between the softly undulating tallgrass prairie and the slowly rolling Missouri River. Until the mid-nineteenth cen- tury, the area was the domain of the Yankton Sioux Indians, who, un- der their legendary leader Strike-the-Ree, ceded about 14 million acres between the Missouri and Big Sioux rivers with the Treaty of 1858. That treaty, followed closely by the Homestead Act of 1862, triggered a tor- rent of European immigrants—Czechs, Dutch, English, Germans, Ger- mans from Russia (including Hutterites and Mennonites), Russians, Swedes, Norwegians, Poles, Irish, and Austrians—who settled in what became Bon Homme County, Dakota Territory. The newcomers also included many cold-hardy settlers from Canada, plus empire-building Yankees from New England, who leapfrogged through Ohio, Indiana, 1.

  • Foundation's 2020 Annual Report
    FOUNDATION’S 2020 ANNUAL REPORT The Trail of Governors project survived the year 2020 and the COVID-19 pandemic by hitting pause. The Trail of Governors Foundation board members decided to hold off on hosting an unveiling ceremony or installing new statues. The actual trail remains as it appeared at the start of 2020, with 25 bronze statues. While in pause mode, the board was still obligated to make payments to the artists for their work to-date on the year’s commissioned statues. Attempts to seek donors and payments from those that relayed interest in donating pre-Covid-19 were dismal given the economic uncertainty and health concerns brought by the pandemic. Therefore, board members and advisors got busy filling out applications for grants to find financial assistance. The project was awarded two grants, one from the South Dakota Small Business Grant for $80,000 and one from the South Dakota Humanities Council’s CARES Relief Act for $10,000. These grants provided the necessary support to make M.Charles Michael Herreid Rounds – 4th- 31st Governor Governor of Southof South Dakota Dakota payments to the 2020 – now year 2021 – sculptors. 2020 Trail of Governors Annual Report Charles H.

  • 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.

  • Introduction 11
    10 THE QUESTION IS “WHY?” IntrodUCtion 11 unapproachable, and out-of-touch with regular people. My response was to knock on doors and host Saturday morning coffees at McDonald’s to meet people and hear what they had to say. Over time, the public perception seemed to change, and people met my more relatable side—and then, after earning their trust, allowed me to represent them in Pierre for more than a decade. Every day reminds me of the incredible privilege, security, and opportunities set before me. Once, while serving in the state legislature, there was an abortion debate that went long into the evening. For hours I held firm to my pro-choice stance. When the heated discussion INTRODUCTION ended for the evening, my side lost every one of our proposed amendments, and the bill passed. That night and for years after, many people thanked me for my “courage” in the chamber—a comment that seemed wrong to me. Didn’t I have to face real danger, I thought, in order to express “courage?” Nearing the door on my way out of the state capitol, a uniformed state trooper told me “good evening Representative” and wished me well, just as he did every other lawmaker—no Stanford M. Adelstein remembered that “it was snowing hard on a Saturday matter his or her position on the night’s hot-button issue.
