The South Dakota Cancer Coalition Colorectal Cancer Task Force has honored Dr. Daniel Heinemann, MD, a vice president and medical officer for Sanford Health Network, and Falls Community Health in Sioux Falls for increasing screen- ing rates among their eligible patients. Dr. Heinemann was awarded the 80 percent by 2018 Champion of the Year Award and Falls Community Health received the 80 percent by 2018 Organization of the Year Award. “Staff at Falls Community Health and Dr. Heinemann should be applauded for their hard work and dedication to increase colorectal cancer screening. Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in South Dakota,” SD Ag Foundation Accepts $4 Million Challenge From Gov. Daugaard And South Dakota Community Foundation PIERRE, S.D. – On National Ag Day, the South Dakota Agricultural Foundation accepted a five-year challenge to raise $4 million for future support of South Dakota’s agriculture industry. Funds raised by the SD Ag Foundation will be matched by an additional $1 million in funds from the State of South Dakota and South Dakota Community Foundation. Gov. Dennis Daugaard was at POET headquarters in Sioux Falls today to make the announcement. “We take pride in agriculture here in South Dakota, and to see the SD Ag Foundation’s commitment to invest in the future of agriculture is commendable. This challenge will ensure growth in the industry, while highlighting the need for philanthropy in agriculture,” said Gov. Daugaard. “We’ve seen a lot of excitement around the South Dakota Agricultural Foundation and its initiatives this last year,” said Stephanie Judson, president of South Dakota Community Foundation. “We hope our challenge grant encourages others to join us in supporting a very vital part of the state’s heritage and economy.” In support of the SD Ag Foundation, POET announced their commitment of $250,000 towards the 1:4 matching challenge. “Agriculture drives this state and every community in it,” POET CEO Jeff Broin said. “This effort to promote ag education, market development, research and more is crucial for the future of South Dakota. We are proud that biofuels have provided the avenue for growth in ag markets over the last decade, and they will play a pivotal role in helping farmers recover from the hardship they face today. We want to do whatever we can to help our farmers and their children succeed for years to come.” Other commitments toward the challenge goal include — First Interstate Bank: $25,000 SD Bankers Association: $5,000 Riverview Farms: $5,000 Nathan & Kristin Jensen: $1,000 Since its inception in 2016, the SD Ag Foundation has raised nearly half a million dollars. This year they are supporting 23 organizations involved in youth ag education across South Dakota with grants totaling $34,165. About SD Ag Foundation The South Dakota Agricultural Foundation is an independent, industry-led nonprofit composed of key leaders in the South Dakota ag industry.

Archaeology and Historic Preservation Month is celebrated in May, which is when prizes will be awarded to the top three essays. The competition is open to fourth grade students. South Dakota history is taught in the fourth grade. The essay contest will expose students to an appreciation of their historic places, the stories they tell and why they should be preserved for future generations, according to Jay D. Vogt, director of the State Historical Society. With the theme of “This Place Matters,” students are asked to write a 100-400 word essay about any South Dakota location that is at least 50 years old, why it is a favorite place for them, and why it should be preserved. It does not need to be a historic site, and writing a history of the location is not necessary. “We look forward to sponsoring this contest and seeing what places and stories students come up with,” said Vogt. “We think it will give students a better understanding of their history and culture.” The contest entry deadline is April 20. Entries will be judged on quality of writing, content and theme, and originality of thought. Prizes will be awarded for first, second and third places. The first-place winner will receive a $100 cash prize and a one-year family membership to the South Dakota State Historical Society (a $50 value). The second-place winner will receive a $50 cash prize and a one-year family membership to the society. The third-place winner will receive a $25 cash prize and a one-year family membership to the society. The winning entries will be posted on the society’s website at history.sd.gov/preservation during the month of May. Additional information, including complete guidelines and an entry form, are posted on the website. Questions may be directed to Cindy Snow at 605-773-2907 or Cindy. Snow@state.sd.us. said Karen Cudmore, cancer programs director for the Department of Health. “We know that colorectal cancer screening tests can save lives, but the reality is too many adults aren’t following the recommendation for regular screening beginning at age 50.” According to the 2016 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance Survey, just 65.8 percent of South Dakota adults aged 50 to 75 were up to date with colorectal cancer screening. The state and several part- ners are part of a national effort working toward the goal of increasing colorectal cancer screening rates to 80 percent by 2018. March is Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month. Men and women age 50 to 75 should talk to their healthcare provider about getting screened for colorectal cancer.
