Open House Weekend, Free Fishing at South Dakota State Parks

You can get a free preview of some summer fun South Dakota's state parks. You can take the family out to one of the parks you've never been to. Or introduce the kids to fishing.

The weekend of May 19 through 21 is the open house weekend at all of South Dakota's state parks. There will be free entrance to State Parks and no fishing licencees needed. Fish limits and camping fees still apply.
