250th Celebration of America & Jones County's 110th

Celebrate a major hometown milestone in Murdo as the community marks America’s 250th anniversary and Jones County’s 110th. The weekend is planned as a shared celebration for residents, families, local groups, businesses, and visitors, with a parade theme of America’s 250th: A Journey Through Time and a growing schedule of community events. Key Details Admission: Community celebration Parade: Parade entries are invited from families, farmers and ranchers, classes, organizations, businesses, and other community groups. Tickets/Registration: Parade participation details are available through the Murdo Area Chamber of Commerce. Weather considerations: Mid-July in central South Dakota can bring heat, sun, and wind, so light clothing, water, and sun protection can help make the weekend more comfortable.
