The present land owners...
The number of registered voters in Crook County took a significant leap upwards this year, according to the official tallies from August’s primary election. Crook County had 4103 registered voters in total at the 2018 primary, a number that grew only modestly to 4143 by the 2020 general election.

Are you ready? Another exciting year of LOGOS is about to begin! With the theme, “ENCOUNTERS WITH GENESIS”, students, their families and staff will explore together some of the great questions of life and God’s love.

Many residents of the Black Hills region identify with Devils Tower because of the sense of place that has been cultivated by using the land as a gathering spot for many generations. Modern gatherings...
