A delegation of nearly 20 Rapid City business and civic leaders returned from Houston last week after with hopes of luring oil-related business to Rapid City and to promote the Black Hills as a vacation destination for Texans who will have direct flights to the region this summer.
Joining Dakota Midday to discuss the trip were Ben Snow, president of the Rapid City Economic Development Foundation and organizer of the trip; Kathleen Barrow of Jackson Lewis, a national employment law specialist which employs 750 attorneys in 52 locations, representing employers in matters related to employment law, including clients who do business in North Dakota's Bakken formation; and Dan Daly, Public Relations Director at TDG Communications.
