Freeman, SD, will debut a [Chislic Festival](https://www.argusleader.com/story/entertainment/2018/05/22/freeman-announces-south-dakota-chislic-festival-state-nosh/634529002/) this July. Finally, an entire weekend devoted to the official state nosh (snack). How supremely South Dakotan. The event joins a laundry list of summer celebrations across the Mount Rushmore State. From toilet bowl races to mashed potato wrestling, they possess a unique, if not a bit wacky, charm. The intern team selected a few standout gatherings from the lineup to feature in our first infographic. (May we note, this was no easy task. There are \*so\* many to choose from.) You'll have to wait until next year to attend a few of the festivals on our list, but pencil in a road trip to upcoming events this season. Without further ado, enjoy a journey through the state's best fests. ![South Dakota Summer Festivals Infographic | Lemonly](https://d2xoo2expjpog9.cloudfront.net/generalUploads/Work/Artboard-1-100-copy-4.jpg?mode=crop&pos=center-center&q=98&f=webp&c=24d4a4e6&v=add484f67ae89faeff1dd43a6129988f8092fd20fe3c4616182a725b57bc63e2) ## And that's a wrap, folks! ### Interns, what are your takeaways from the first infographic assignment? **Ciara**: I dove right into Lemonly’s program integration. It’s no wonder we specialize in transforming the complex to concise. There’s a tool to ensure the process moves smoothly for every step of copy and design, and they’re all seamlessly connected. **Sarah:** It was fascinating learning funny South Dakota traditions. I've lived here my entire life and never knew the full extent of our quirkiness. Getting creative with each event illustration was a lot of fun. **Hailey:** On the contrary, I’m a Nebraska native. Researching festivals was an education in South Dakota history, considering a few of these events date back half a century. Narrowing down festivals to feature was the difficult part—even harder, choosing which ones to attend this summer. ### Favorite South Dakota festival? **Ciara:** Oahe Days. After an afternoon cruising the Missouri River, I like attending Buckin’ on the River and the concert. Of course, the fair food is always delicious too! **Sarah:** I attend Sioux Falls’ Jazzfest every year. It’s my hometown and they always feature great local music groups that really bring the funk. **Hailey:** Who doesn’t love a celebration of a local vegetable effigy? The weeklong Corn Palace Festival is a must-see. ## Share - [ ](http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://www.lemonly.com/work/south-dakota-summer-festivals&p%5Btitle%5D=From%20the%20Interns%3A%20South%20Dakota%20Summer%20Festivals%20Infographic) - [ ](https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https://www.lemonly.com/work/south-dakota-summer-festivals&title=From%20the%20Interns%3A%20South%20Dakota%20Summer%20Festivals%20Infographic) - [ ](https://www.pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=https://www.lemonly.com/work/south-dakota-summer-festivals&media=https://www.lemonly.com/general-uploads/Work/Artboard-1-100-copy-2.jpg&description=From%20the%20Interns%3A%20South%20Dakota%20Summer%20Festivals%20Infographic) - [ ](mailto:?body=Check%20this%20out!%20https://www.lemonly.com/work/south-dakota-summer-festivals&subject=From%20the%20Interns:%20South%20Dakota%20Summer%20Festivals%20Infographic) --- ## You might also like [ ![Community Innovation - Bush Foundation](https://d2xoo2expjpog9.cloudfront.net/generalUploads/Work/170831_BushFoundation_IntrotoCommunity-01_2024-09-06-172531_guwi.jpg?mode=crop&pos=center-center&q=98&f=webp&c=19875812&v=e2b02ddc525a7b6a8f633a9e17100f6c68942ffacb6127079075dfe5b8e1c5a5) ](https://www.lemonly.com/work/insights-into-community-problem-solving-2) [Bush Foundation](https://www.lemonly.com/work?client=bush-foundation)[Bush Foundation Community Innovation Investments Overview](https://www.lemonly.com/work/insights-into-community-problem-solving-2) [Infographic](https://www.lemonly.com/work?category=infographic) [ ![Weekend Getaways By Season | Marriott](https://d2xoo2expjpog9.cloudfront.net/generalUploads/Work/Weekend-Getaways_Seasons.jpg?mode=crop&pos=center-center&q=98&f=webp&c=2ca505eb&v=780b4a81f06bbb7435138fbcd02d3a52b295338e13ce5498845f9bf4c9737acf) ](https://www.lemonly.com/work/weekend-getaways-by-season-infographic) [Marriott](https://www.lemonly.com/work?client=marriott)[Weekend Getaways By Season](https://www.lemonly.com/work/weekend-getaways-by-season-infographic) [Infographic](https://www.lemonly.com/work?category=infographic) [ ![](https://d2xoo2expjpog9.cloudfront.net/generalUploads/Work/Ramping-Up-Renewables-Infographic-Lemonly-Final.jpg?mode=crop&pos=center-center&q=98&f=webp&c=827d026a&v=591b85abdb4c0adecbb8e640ac758ab278912194aaa84d903da5ce9553d53718) ](https://www.lemonly.com/work/ramping-up-renewable-energy-infographic) [Union of Concerned Scientists](https://www.lemonly.com/work?client=union-of-concerned-scientists)[Ramping Up Renewable Energy](https://www.lemonly.com/work/ramping-up-renewable-energy-infographic) [Infographic](https://www.lemonly.com/work?category=infographic)
