Meet Nick

Nick settled in the Black Hills in the fall of 2022 with his wife (Leslie - native of Valley Spring, SD) and blind lab (Boomer) from Columbus, Ohio where he was born, raised, and lived until the move out West. He spent 11 years in education as a teacher, coach, athletics director, and most recently program coordinator of Rapid City Teammates Mentoring Program. Nick enjoys, wait for it… exploring the Black Hills, spending time outside moving/grooving/running/hiking/etc, enjoying laughs and good times with family and friends, and meeting new folks in Rapid City. His current favorite coffee is the Jefferson Blend with a splash of Grogg flavor!

Meet Patrick

Patrick grew up on Lake Kampeska in Watertown, SD (Go Arrows!) and attended South Dakota State where he earned his degree and played Linebacker for the Jacks (#17). His journey took him to Newport Beach, CA and Uganda working for a non-profit apparel company called Krochet Kids intl. And loved every second of the experience. He moved to the Black Hills in 2018 for a job opportunity and had loved it ever since. You can catch Patrick strolling the town or hiking the hills with his dog Frannie, dunking his way to a city league basketball championship with the Chute Roosters, or enjoying either a regular or South Dakota martini as long as it comes with an excess of olives.
