On Government Day, Juniors took tours of different government departments (planning and zoning, parking and transportation, historic preservation etc.). They had lunch at the fire department and then attended a city commission meeting at Deadwood City Hall. The event is put on by the city of Deadwood and we are thankful to the city, the fire department and the American Legion for contributing to this event.
