Two years ago Janine Stange set out on a mission to perform "The Star Spangled Banner" in every state. The Long Island native known as the National Anthem Girl is now in the home stretch with just six states left to go.
On Thursday she'll cross South Dakota off the map when she sings at the American Legion Division II Central Plain Regional Baseball Tournament in Milbank. As she has at other events, Stange will also invite people to sign thank you messages for military members and veterans.
Stange will reach her 50th state on August 28th when she sings before the Tennessee Titans' preseason NFL game against the Minnesota Vikings. She joined Dakota Midday and discussed her experiences singing the National Anthem across the country.
