As you’ve likely heard by now, the South Dakota Supreme Court issued a decision on Thursday, January 25, 2018, that ruled in favor of the Town of Buffalo Chip’s 2015 incorporation.

This announcement has raised a lot of questions among those of you who love staying at the Chip each year. While many of those inquiries varied, they really all boiled down to one simple question– “How will staying at the Chip change now that Buffalo Chip, SD is a town?”

Not all simple questions have simple answers, but luckily this one does.

This statement from Buffalo Chip Campground founder and president Rod Woodruff sums up the effect the Buffalo Chip Town will have on the campground perfectly.

Thanks to all who’ve sent congratulations.

Many have wondered what difference this will make. The answer is short – it will make no difference to those who attend the Buffalo Chip Campground. All laws and policies remain the same as they have been as in years past.

The Buffalo Chip Campground is a business and does not share the same boundaries as the Town of Buffalo Chip. The Campground will continue to host the annual Buffalo Chip Music and Motorcycle Festival.

Thank you again for all your support. And remember,

Ride Free, Take Risks and bring those smiling faces right here this August for the best party anywhere.
