Airport launches baggage system, new ticket area
RAPID CITY, SD – Passengers at Rapid City Regional Airport will have to take a slight detour to the east inside the building to get to the new ticket counters – a minor inconvenience in the airport’s multi-million-dollar expansion project. On Tuesday, the new ticket counters at the airport were officially open for business and already busy with people lining up readying for their flights. What those people didn’t see was the new inline baggage handling system behind the wall – also operational this week – that will make baggage handling more efficient, and safer for airport employees. Rapid City Regional Airport is one of the nation’s smaller airports but it’s managing the demands of the increasingly popular Black Hills as a destination and the additional airline passengers that go along with that. To manage the increased traffic demands at the airport, the new TSA check-in area recently opened and the new ticket counters and inline baggage system went live this week. “This will give us the ability to expand, have more space for new carriers to come in, to have more space for the existing carriers who are here and just get to be a more efficient operation when

The Outside Circle: Bulls, broncs and barrels, Nelson fundraiser clinic, sorting series, horse sales
We finally got our calves preconditioned last weekend. It was quite cool and rainy, which settled any dust in the pens. It started to sleet by the time we were picking things up and turning everything back out to pasture. Those cows all deserve a medal for the job they have done on their calves with little grass, no rain, and being fed hay and cake to get them by. The calves look good and are gentle from being caked every day with the cows. It’s kind of strange to have a big steer calf walk up and nibble my sleeve while standing amongst the cows and calves. The best part of the day, bar none, was that all four of my grandkids were there helping. That alone made it a stellar day as the oldest two don’t live with their dad and wanted to come and help.
