Badlands/Minuteman Missile
celebrate National Park Week
Badlands National Park and
Minuteman Missile National Historic
Site will celebrate National
Park Week, April 20-28. Fee free
days will be offered at Badlands, a
fee park, beginning on Earth Day,
Monday, April 22, and extending
through Friday, April 26.
Come visit us at our Badlands
Ben Reifel Visitor Center, open
from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. daily,
and at Minuteman Missile’s Visitor
Center, open 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.,
Monday – Friday, and 9:00 a.m. –
4:00 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.
Enjoy the vastness of the southwestern
South Dakota scenery -
soaring spires and pinnacles
amidst the pristine beauty of the
prairie. A visit to both the North
and South Units of the Badlands
can also inspire a greater appreciation
of this landscape’s cultural
histories. Next door, explore the
role of the Midwest in America’s
Cold War history at the Minuteman
Missile by visiting the Delta 9
missile silo and Delta-1 Launch
Control Center.
Explore some of the outdoor features
at Badlands in your own celebration
of Earth Day. The Castle
Trail, ten-miles round trip offers
expansive views, and a relatively
level walk. Cliff Shelf Trail is a
moderately strenuous loop that follows
boardwalks and climbs stairs
through a juniper forest perched
along the Badlands Wall. The Window
Trail is a 0.25 mile trail leading
to a natural window in the Badlands
Wall with a view of an intricately
eroded canyon. There is
truly a walking route for everyone
at Badlands, so get out there and
take a hike.
Minuteman Missile offers daily
tours of its Delta-1 Launch Control
Center at 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m.
Missile silo Delta-9 (I-90, Exit 116)
is also open to the public daily from
8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Tour tickets
for Delta-1 are given out on a first
come, first served basis by coming
to the visitor center in Cactus Flat,
off I-90 at Exit 131.
Badlands will be hosting Artistsin-Residence
Jessica Bryant and
Judy Thompson. The artists have
been working with students on watercolors,
and the role art has
played in the history and development
of our National Parks. The
park is also featuring a video from
former teacher-ranger Larry
McAfee. This reflection on Larry's
travels through 52 of our 59 national
parks can be enjoyed by

Philip earns six academic
achievement team awards
With the completion of all the
South Dakota High School Activities
Association winter fine arts
and athletic activities, the
SDHSAA has announced that 485
teams have received the Academic
Achievement Team Awards for the
2012-2013 winter season.
All varsity groups and teams
that achieve a combined grade
point average of 3.0 or higher are
eligible to receive the award.
Philip High School has six
groups and teams that have earned
this award – the band solo/ensemble,
wrestling team, girls’ basketball
team, boys’ basketball team,
one-act play and vocal solo/ensemble
group.
This award program was designed
to recognize varsity athletic
teams and fine arts groups for their
College Brief
academic excellence. The SDHSAA
believes that high school students
learn in two distinct ways; inside
the classroom and outside the
classroom – on the stage and/or the
athletic field. The program creates
a positive environment for school
teams to have their members excel
in the classroom, motivates students
toward academic excellence
and promotes academic encouragement
from teammates.
Based on a duplicated count,
over 29,789 students participate in
interscholastic athletics and over
28,613 more are involved in fine
arts activities. The award program
proves students can be overwhelmingly
successful in both academics
as wall as in athletic and fine arts
activities.
There will be a
Buffet Dinner with Salad Bar
at the Lake Waggoner Club House
North of Philip
Sunday, May 5th • 11am to 1:30pm
