The state Capitol building in Pierre will stay open extended hours to accommodate photo opportunities for students before the Job’s Daughters King of Hearts event Feb. 16.
The Capitol will be open until 8pm (CT).
Bureau of Administration Commissioner Scott Bollinger says knowing the long-standing tradition of taking photos on the grand staircase in the Capitol’s rotunda prior to events such as prom and King of Hearts, they worked with Capitol Protective Services to keep the Security Checkpoint open later to accommodate for this event and others like it.
