‘Scavenger’s Journey’ on I-90 Growing in Popularity, Size

MITCHELL, S.D. (AP) — The annual "Scavenger's Journey" along Interstate 90 in South Dakota has grown in area in its five years, and next year might see another expansion.

The three-day event the weekend after Father's Day enables businesses and others to sell items from crafts to antiques, and provides an opportunity for people looking for deals to hunt in a single area.

The Daily Republic newspaper reports (http://bit.ly/29587sZ ) that the event in its first year extended from Oacoma to Kimball, a distance of about 25 miles. It now extends from Plankinton to Presho, a span of almost 100 miles.

Organizer Melanie Olson says that with the event growing in popularity, the board might consider expanding its scope again next year.
