Gov. Rounds Announces Philip as “Capital For A Day”
Gov. Mike Rounds is pleased to announce that the city of Philip will be Capital for a Day on Thursday, August 28. The event will be held at the Philip High School Armory, and a complete agenda will be released at a later date.
“Capital for a Day brings government to the people,” said Gov. Rounds. “Those who are unable to travel to Pierre on a regular basis have an opportunity to discuss their issues with the different agencies. It also gives state employees a chance to learn more about activities in the region. I’m looking forward to visiting the Philip community and learning about topics important to the people living there.”
“I am very honored on behalf of our citizens, to welcome Governor Rounds and state government to Philip, ‘Capital for a Day’ on August 28, 2008,” said Mayor John Hart. “The hospitality that Philip will extend, is what makes our community special and why we hope that you will return.”
