Bringing energy to the Kids Fair in South Dakota
YFS Kids Fair booth setup

For 26 years, Youth & Family Services in Rapid City, South Dakota, has hosted a kid focused event filled with jump castles, face painting, balloons and many other hands-on activities for kids of all ages. This popular event brings families from all over the area!

Anna Blankenbiller, a digital marketing program manager in Rapid City, volunteers on the YFS Kids Fair planning committee and helped make sure Black Hills Energy had fun activities for kids to enjoy. Operations teams brought a Sno-Cat that was a hit! Kids enjoyed climbing on the machine and pretending to drive!

We partner with our communities and customers, providing the kind of energy that fuels those areas and the lives of those we serve. Feel free to share the stories and photos. Follow us on FacebookInstagram, LinkedInTwitter, YouTube, and Pinterest for more!
