RAPID CITY, S.D. (AP) — A South Dakota family has won a free home in a drawing entered by more than 5,000 people from eight states.
Elaine Keester of Scenic says she and her husband entered the drawing at Iseman Homes in Rapid City. They won a new double-wide manufactured home that has about 1,400 square feet of living space, two bathrooms and a patio.
She tells KOTA-TV that she considers the new home a Christmas present. The couple’s current home is more than 40 years old and was damaged by a small tornado about a year ago.
Keester says the new home might not be installed until spring because the home site is located down about 15 miles of thin, winding road.
