The quarrying of red quartzite in Dell Rapids goes back more than 120 years. In 1987, the community began this annual summer festival in celebration of that history. Head to Dell Rapids in June for three days of fun. Enjoy family entertainment, a parade, 5k and 1 Mile walk or run, craft and food vendors in the park, car show, an ice cream social, a kayak race, street dance, a fishing derby, fireworks and more.
