Yankton County will not follow the state’s lead in recognizing Juneteenth.
Last month, South Dakota became the final state to recognize Juneteenth as a legal holiday.
Yankton County Commission Chairman Joe Healy says that the topic needs to be addressed at a strategic planning meeting…
Commissioner Dan Klimisch disagreed with Healy…
Klimisch made a motion to add Juneteenth as a county holiday, but the motion died for lack of a second.
