Is Your Pup A Bark Ranger?


Be a Bark Ranger this summer. Remember to keep your dog on a leash when you are walking outside. It is also important to pick up after your dog. At The Outdoor Campus you will find that we have complimentary doggie bags in stations along the trail.

Nature Playscape


Summer is a great time to visit the park. Have you heard there is a park in Sioux Falls made out things found in nature, such as living willow trees? Where is this neat nature park? Well its rights here at The Outdoor Campus. Our new nature playscape is being built in our backyard. Stop out and see huts made out of living willow trees, play stages, a dry river, jumping stumps, neat rocks and a play and sound area.

Have You Kissed Our Frog?


The Outdoor Campus added a new addition to our garden this year. It is green, with big eyes and bumpy skin. Do you know what we added? A frog sculpture! If you haven't seen him already, or even if you have, stop out and see our frog prince sculpture. Take you picture kissing your prince.
