RENOVATING
WAL-MART FOR RECREATION
Cleve Hardman, Director of Outdoor Recreation, LA Office of State Parks
The town of Spearfish (area population
approximately 12,000) is spending $10.3 million to redevelop an abandoned
Wal-mart into a multi-purpose recreation center.
The new facility includes two basketball courts, a jogging track,
workout area with equipment, aerobics/dance studio, concession area, locker
rooms, nursery, concessions, party room and an aquatics center/spray park.
The project is financed through a combination of grant monies and a
bond issue. Their intent is to
repay the bonds with revenues generated by taxes on tourism (hotel/motel
taxes, etc.). Their recreation
department will cover operational costs through the sale of memberships to
the facility.

Spearfish Recreation Web site.
