investment missions to specific geographic areas; targeted

mailings; joint ventures with the Governor's Office of Economic
Development and the Black Hills Business Council (other Black
Hills communities).

It has developed a strong information resource base and prides
itself on demonstrating a comprehensive understanding of those
agencies and personalities in the community that can be of
service.
The Partnership believes that there is truly no other point of
