Saturday night at Levitt at the Falls had the kind of Sioux Falls summer ease that makes free outdoor music feel less like an event and more like a weekly ritual. People came early, found their spots on the lawn, drifted toward food trucks. and let Falls Park West do what it does best.

By the time music started at 7 p.m., the night had already settled into that familiar Levitt rhythm of lawn chairs, kids moving through the grass, conversations softening as the first songs began and the smell of dinner from Valentino’s, Double D BBQ, Willy’s and Street Sweets hanging around the edges.

Farmers were searching for answers as a disastrous growing season continued to worsen 50 years ago this week. With some parts of the state receiving 30 percent or less of their average expected rainfall that year, drought withered away crops as cattle grazed fields bare.

“This is the worst condition we’ve ever had,” South Dakota Lt. Gov. Harvey Wollman said of the situation, according to the June 10, 1976, edition of The Daily Republic of Mitchell.

The sudden and severe drought in 1976 left some areas of South Dakota in more dire circumstances than during the Dust Bowl of the 1930s, according to the United States Geological Survey (USGS).

After kidnapping an Argus Leader editor and robbing multiple banks, an escaped convict was finally back in custody 25 years ago this week.

But Anthony Flowers’ month on the run was just a chapter in a life full of prison breaks, armed robberies, claims of being a government informant and a high-profile false confession, according to the June 3, 2001, edition of the Argus Leader.

With a criminal history dating back to 1985, Flowers was back behind bars following a traffic stop in fall 2000 that resulted in officers finding cocaine, methamphetamine and a loaded gun — all violations of his parole conditions at the time. But awaiting sentencing for the violations and facing additional federal bank robbery charges, he pulled off an elaborate escape from the Minnehaha County Jail on May 2, 2001, according to Argus Leader archives.
