Piedmont, South Dakota


Submitted by Cindy

Piedmont is a small "valley" in the Black Hills. We are a suburb (if you can call it that) of nearby Rapid City. We are surrounded by the Black Hills. THere are many beautiful, scenic spots here- though recently some succomed to fire due to the drought SD has been experiencing. You will find people from all walks of life here in ths sleepy little town. Oddly enough, the bar life is very active. They are trying to revive our park and recently we founded a library. You find many people involved in clubs and volunteerism is very active because we really have no official government here. A lot of Homes here are rural or in small neighborhoods from run-down to top of the line. People are very friendly in Piedmont. We actually still wave when we pass one another on the service road. We have two elementray schools, but the older kids are bussed 15 miles to Sturgis for Middle and High school. We are trying to change that, and build Middle/High schools out here. I'd have to get back to you with formal histry of Piedmont, it is an old town and definately not self sufficient, but within the last 10 years we now have 2 gas stations,a grocery store, pharmacy, bank and even a coffee shop!
