PIERRE, S.D. (AP) — State officials and residents in Pierre are re-enacting the original dedication of a civil war monument on the grounds of the state capitol 95 years after it was first christened.

Officials will rededicate the Civil War Monument on June 1. The Capitol Complex Restoration and Beautification Commission has approved various upgrades to the monument site including sidewalks, lighting, benches, landscaping and a flagpole.

Gov. Dennis Daugaard will read the remarks made at the 1920 dedication by former Gov. Peter Norbeck. And other state officials will read remarks originally made by leaders of the National Grand of Army the Republic.
