The Dakota Herald has been serving the Lemmon area since 1999, providing the community and surrounding area with coverage on news, weather, and sports.

Owned and operated by Lemmon native, LaQuita (Evans) Shockley, the newspaper offers a real sense of hometown pride and spirit that shows in every page of The Dakota Herald.

The business started out located on Lemmon's Main Avenue, but now operates from its current location at 602 10th Street West; just nestled inside the Huffman Sales Complex on Highway 12.

Over the years, The Dakota Herald has continued to grow in content, coverage, readership, advertisers, and general appeal. If you really want to connect with our rural area, you will want to be sure to read every page of The Dakota Herald.
