5-15-24. Governor's grove--Maintenance and use. All that portion of the capitol grounds, as now exists and lies north of Broadway in the city of Pierre shall hereafter be known as the Governor's Grove. It shall, under the supervision of the Bureau of Administration, be properly landscaped and parked and shall contain a grove of hardy, long-lived trees, each one properly marked and maintained as a memorial grove to the past, present, and future Governors of South Dakota, and a new tree, as an addition to such grove, shall be set out and properly dedicated on the first Arbor Day following the election of each Governor hereafter. This park shall be maintained as an adjunct to the said capitol grounds and shall be used for no other memorial purpose than as is provided for in this section; provided, however, that a gateway thereto may be provided in which each county in the state shall be represented by a properly inscribed stone or marker.
