In 2017, Bonesteel celebrated its 125th anniversary and added the Legacy Lane of bricks, one of the original Fort Randall boundary markers known as the Iron Posts, and a quartzite marker that was placed on the South Dakota—Nebraska border. This park is dedicated to L. L. Lillibridge in appreciation of his many efforts and contributions to restore and preserve the town.
