� Now that Walmart will require shoppers to wear masks beginning Monday I will shop there as much as possible, feeling safe and staying well. Way to go Walmart.
� I might need some help defin-ing a couple (apparently antithet-ical) phrases offered by one of the Keystone protest leaders. What do “voluntary arrest” and “pillars of our community” mean?
� So why is it that high schools such as Custer and Spearfish were able to have their high school grad-uations these past two weekends outside at their football stadiums and Rapid City canceled Stevens and Central’s graduation where they could have done the same thing?
� Our Constitution provides for equal opportunity; it does not guarantee equal outcome. Personal choices, ability and hard work de-termine the outcome.

“I think it’s very import-ant we reflect on our his-tory, where we came from, how we developed into the Black Hills with the gold, ” he said. “To me, there isn’t anything more important than history. In order to know where you’re headed, you have to look back where you came from.”
Thompson said due to COVID-19, the rodeo grounds will be sanitized every day, along with the bleachers. He said there will be sanitation stations for attendees to use throughout
the arena. No one, though, is required to wear a mask.
According to the Miss Days of ‘76, the annual pageant will not be open to the public, although each contestant is allowed two guests.
Horsemanship and coro-nation at the arena will be open to the public, though beginning at 1:30 p.m. July 20 and at noon July 21, re-spectively.
Thompson said this year those who attend can ex-pect to see “some of the best cowboys and rodeo livestock” around.
He said there will be re-enactments with stage-coaches and robberies, two days of parades and more. He said he’s received calls from cowboys and cowgirls
across the country asking about the Black Hills.

they go to camp. “We are blessed because
we do have an outdoor camp, so it’s very easy to keep kids in small groups and being outside in the fresh air reduces the risk of exposure” to COVID-19, Larson said.
She said staff and camp counselors must wear masks all day.
Families who use the YMCA for childcare are “very appreciative that our child care is open, be-cause it is allowing them to not only return to their jobs, but it is allowing their children to return to a more structured environment,” Larson said.
“It’s really important to have this movement back towards a new normal,” she added. “Maintaining so-cialization has been really hard during this time, and
kids really need it.” Recommendations for
child care and day camps
came from YMCA of the USA, the Mott Foundation, the CDC and a field guide
from the Environmental Health and Engineering Inc., Larson said.

LOS ANGELES — The King of Pop is joining The Boss and Old Blue Eyes on SiriusXM satellite radio.
The monthlong Michael Jackson channel was an-nounced Wednesday by the singer’s estate.
The channel will fea-ture music from Jackson’s albums and from live per-formances, including his 1988 concerts at London’s Wembley Stadium on his Bad Tour.
Around-the-clock King of Pop programming will begin at noon Eastern. Jack-son joins SiriusXM channels devoted to artists like Bruce Springsteen, Frank Sinatra and The Beatles.
Playlists created by singer Akon, Jackson’s brothers and fellow Jackson 5 mem-
bers Jackie, Marlon and Tito will also be featured.
It will also include mu-sic that influenced Jackson from artists including James Brown and Sly & the Family Stone, and artists that Jack-son influenced including Beyoncé, Justin Timberlake and Usher.
Journalist and author Steven Ivory, a family friend who interviewed Jackson often, will provide the voice of the channel, telling stories, introducing discussions that chronicle the history and career of Jackson and sharing his own Jackson playlist.
Ivory said the music and message of Jackson, who died in 2009 at age 50, are especially fitting for the world in a moment of trou-ble and turmoil.
