CRAZY HORSE MEMORIAL, S.D. (AP) - While Americans in other states mark Columbus Day on Monday, South Dakotans will celebrate Native American Day.
Crazy Horse Memorial near Custer, which is being carved in honor of American Indians, will feature a traveling high-tech classroom and opportunities to experience native culture.
The classroom was designed to help Lakota students improve their technology skills. The facility, called Starbase Project NOVA - for "New Opportunities, Visions and Attitudes" - will remain at Crazy Horse through Oct. 19.
On Native American Day, Crazy Horse Memorial visitors will be able to try Project NOVA's computer gadgets, including simulators that mimic military aircraft controls.
