South Dakota Historical Society Seeking Award Nominations

PIERRE, S.D. (AP) — The South Dakota Historical Society is looking for nominations for the Governor’s Awards for History.

The award nominations are due by the end of March and can encompass individuals, groups and a history teacher of the year.

The Historical Society says a panel will review the nominations and the winners will be announced at the history conference on May 30 in Pierre. Society Director Jay Vogt says the society is looking for teachers, organizations or people who have a track record of preserving state history.

The society says it is also searching for two members for its board of trustees. Those positions include an at-large member and the professional architectural historian.
