Mike and Jane Rhoades have been at the helm of a Yankton-area institution for nearly 30 years.
But after 73 years in business, Vogtâs Fine Cleaners is set to close the door on the location it has called home as its services will be merging with Buhlâs Cleaners on the other side of downtown Yankton.
With the bittersweet moment only a short few weeks away, the Rhoades spoke with the Press & Dakotan about the cleanersâ history, what itâs meant to serve the community and how theyâll continue to serve the city after Vogtâs closes for good.
Vogtâs Fine Cleaners, originally founded and owned by Harry Vogt, opened in 1947 and has stayed in the same location along Douglas Ave. in downtown Yankton ever since.
