Saturday evening, November 5th, these four people were honored by the entire community at "Black and Light Gala" sponsored by Black Hills Corporation and Black Hills Power.   Mike, Heather, Nancy and Jorgia enjoyed this night so much and they will remember and treasure the experience forever!! As you can see by the photos Rushmore Hall of the RC Civic Center was transformed into an elegant evening filled with fabulous music, amazing surroundings and of course food and desserts like none other!  The Black Hills Workshop Foundation  Board and Gala Committee was so excited to bring concert pianist Mila to our stage this year.  Her talent is amazing and she was a show stopper!

The "Gala" is the official kick off into the holiday season and the over 650 people in attendance dressed for the occasion.  Half of each ticket was a charitable contribution to support Transportation Needs for the people served by Black Hills Workshop and over $62,000 was raised this year.
