Dewey C. Gevik
Outdoor Learning Center
The Dewey C. Gevik Outdoor Learning Center
showcases natural resources and provides examples
of quality conservation practices, while also filtering
the water flowing into Wall Lake. This learning area
demonstrates the design, function, and beneficial
relationship to the environment these practices have.
By presenting this information, we hope that
individuals will reach a greater understanding and
appreciation for wildlife, the environment, and the
need for conservation of our natural resources for
future generations.
Open year round to the public, this interpretive
educational experience features: wetland restoration, a grassed waterway with a rock weir structure, rock
crossings, shelterbelts, native grass plantings, observation decks, and walking trails. The Minnehaha Conservation District is honored to continue managing and maintaining this area for the public.
We hope you will enjoy looking through the pictures below. To visit, go to 1/2 mile west of Wall Lake, or 1/4 mile north of the intersection of 266th Street and 462nd Avenue, about eight miles west of Sioux Falls.
