“The main themes for us are continuing to celebrate
winter, growing and improving the park and its services, and being a destination for year-round fun.” ALEXA JERSTAD
Other events happen throughout the year, including the Earth Day Festival in partnership with Sioux Falls Parks and Recreation , Chill at the Hill , Welcome Winter Fest , and Lallycooler . The inaugural Lallycooler brought over 10,000 people to enjoy live music in the park by acts like Pitbull , Sam Hunt , and TLC . Great Bear was honored to host the two-day festival, Jerstad says, and looks forward to hosting more music in the park during the summer season. Looking to the future, Great Bear plans to always expand and improve its operations. “We have dreams to add more skiable terrain in the near future and expand our summer offerings,” said Jerstad. “The Sioux Falls community continues to grow, and we are growing with it.” FOR MORE INFORMATION, VISIT GREATBEARPARK.
