In the News -- SD floods

SDSMT Campus June 1972.

Flash floods made headlines locally in the wake of last weeks thunderstorms. Many older residents of the area vividly recall "The Flood" and are relieved to see that the floodplain worked in Rapid City. A look at the situation on Battle Creek reminds us that things can get bad in a hurry.
