The Tourism Coalition of South Dakota (TCSD), formerly VIA, serves as the statewide advocate for the visitor industry. To support their vital lobbying efforts, TCSD will once again host a raffle during the 2025 Governor's Conference on Tourism. They have reached out to the regional associations for assistance in collecting raffle items and baskets.
We invite you to contribute to this important initiative by donating a basket of goodies, gift certificates, passes, hotel stays, or travel packages. If you prefer to assemble your own gift basket, it can be dropped off at the TCSD table (across from registration) starting the afternoon of Tuesday, January 21, at the conference. Please ensure your package is clearly labeled with:
- Your business name
- A list of the contents
- The total value of the donation
Black Hills & Badlands Tourism Association (BH&B) will also be contributing gift baskets. If you’d like to add to our baskets, please drop off your items at our office by January 13. For those unable to attend the conference, BH&B can deliver your donation if received by January 17.
For questions or to confirm your donation, please reach out to Michelle at michelle@blackhillsbadlands.com.
In 2024, the raffle raised over $8,054.71 thanks to the incredible generosity of members like you. These funds are critical for maintaining a strong voice during the legislative session. Let’s work together to make 2025 another record-breaking year!
