The 56th Governor’s Buffalo Roundup is in the books. The event attracts young and old, newcomers and veterans, for a chance to witness a herd of 1,300-1,400 bison rounded up into the corrals of Custer State Park (CSP).
CSP set an annual visitation record last year with 2 million visitors and the Roundup attracted 19,000 viewers.
This year’s Roundup was also record-breaking, with 22,452 attending.
Gov. Kristi Noem rode in the Roundup along with her two daughters, her son-in- law and a nephew.
