Events
Tree Lighting
The Grand Lighting Ceremony will be held on Tuesday, November 22, 2022 at 7:00 PM. Governor Noem and special guests will entertain those in attendance and kick off 2022 Christmas at the Capitol!
As always, a special guest from "up North" will make an appearance at the end of the evening. Children can write their letters to Santa at home then bring them to the 1st floor of the Capitol and place them in the "Lettes to Santa" mailbox (no postage required), where they will be delivered to the North Pole before Christmas by special little helpers.
