PLAN YOUR ( 605 ) ROAD TRIP In order of 605’s experience.

SATURDAY, JULY 12 10 a.m. Jazzed we were able to sleep in, 605 was even more excited to arrive at the Pheasant Restaurant & Lounge to gaze upon the eight- foot-tall pheasant statue sitting atop the building. The best part, though, was when assistant general manager Trevor Clements brought out their James Beard Foundation America’s Classics Award . As he told us stories about the prestigious experience, their talented team brought out a plethora of Norwegian waffles for us to sample, and we carbed up just enough before the trip finale. 11 a.m. As we’re media, we were lucky board and committee member Shari Avery saved us a parking spot at the Brookings Summer Arts Festival . The event that draws nearly 75,000 people over the weekend was packed with attendees purchasing local art, jamming out to music, and snarfing their favorite summer nosh (we had to get mini donuts). Taking photos, we stopped in artist Eileen Binkley’s tent, who just so happened to win the BSAF Media Award Winner later that afternoon. Shopping for some goodies ourselves, we packed up the van and headed back home after another successful road trip. FOR MORE INFORMATION, VISIT GROWTH ALLIANCE.ORG OR VISITBROOKINGS SD.COM+
