Lakota Achiever boys visited T. Rex in Faith on their way to other adventures and camping in the Black Hills. They toured the Black Hills State University, the Journey Museum and Prairie Edge, Crazy Horse Monument, Black Hills Natural History Museum, raced go-carts at The Ranch and swam in the Rapid City YMCA pool. The girls will go next week and also visit the Beauty College.
