Introduction

Good day, I’m Bob Bates from the Black Hills Amp. I’ve been the Development Director for the Amp since the middle of July. The Amp is a new venue; one that I’m extremely excited about for all of the Black Hills and Spearfish, SD. It’s the former Black Hills Passion Play, which ran for 70-some years. It’s an exciting venue in that there is an almost 6,000 seat capacity. We have dinner theater four nights per week. We have, on the main stage, high profile acts from around the country and the world. We have a very aggressive schedule for 2010.

My blog is really designed to enlighten you, sometimes entertain you, and sometimes just inform you. Some of the comments in the blog are to be taken tongue-in-cheek, as they will be my limited attempt toward humor. The inspiration and excitement of doing a blog is not new to me as I currently have a blog where I highlight my mission trips and mission activity. In saying that however, this is new to me in the extent of the large audience that I’ll be reaching and the types of feedback that I’ll be looking forward to receiving.
