RAPID CITY, S.D. (March 29, 2013) – The South Dakota School of Mines & Technology is known for its trailblazing discoveries and pioneering research. But at 8:30 p.m. on April 13, Mines fraternity Delta Sigma Phi plans to forge a different frontier.
Trading today’s state-of-the-art for yesterday’s Old West, Delta Sigma Phi will host the 34th annual Cowboy Party at the Central States Fairgrounds. Featuring a mechanical bull, hand-chopped logs and a homemade corral, the party will also showcase the band Slamabama. A self-described blend of Sugarland and Van Halen, Slamabama will begin its performance around 9 p.m.
“The Cowboy Party is a great way to have fun, listen to a quality band and dance. The money generated goes to a great cause and we certainly have fun putting it together,” says Ty Murphy, a Delta Sigma Phi member.
Open to the public, tickets are $10 if purchased in advance and $15 at the gate, with a large portion of the proceeds benefiting the Rapid City Club for Boys.
Tickets may be purchased in advance by contacting Ty Murphy at ty.murphy@mines.sdsmt.edu or Danny Besmer at danny.besmer@mines.sdsmt.edu
For more than a century, Delta Sigma Phi has helped young men become better leaders and citizens, working hard to have a hand in the positive development of the campus and challenging its members to make a difference in their communities and their world.
