Two-year, $6.5 million expansion of Outdoor Campus complete

The South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks Department facility, at 4500 S. Oxbow Ave., recently celebrated the moment with a public open house and a ribbon-cutting last week, including the Greater Sioux Falls Chamber of Commerce , Gov. Larry Rhoden and Sioux Falls Mayor Christine Erickson. What does the expansion include? The expansion includes an indoor archery range, three new classrooms, a game-processing room and a teaching kitchen created from two former classrooms. The project also updated restrooms, added a family restroom and a nursing mother's room and expanded the wildlife-viewing area overlooking the oxbow.
