With some of the country's most beautiful parks, monuments and memorials, Rapid City is a perfect location for your reunion. You’ll find the heart of the American experience with the four granite faces of Mount Rushmore National Memorial and the eroded buttes of Badlands National Park.

Whether it’s a military, family or class reunion, there are countless things to do all in one place in Rapid City and it's easy to find activities for everyone in the group. History and culture buffs can explore the city's museums while outdoor enthusiasts explore caves and go rock climbing. Families can get an up close view of wildlife at parks like Bear Country and Reptile Gardens. And that's just the beginning.
