Lake Elsie is Back!
June 9, 2009 by Rachel Vande Brake
After decades of being filled in with earth, Lake Elsie is now filled with water. It is just amazing and the waterfall over the dam gives a whole new meaning to “Talking Waters”. Come “Experience the Life” here in Gary South Dakota, and join us for the Grand Opening of Buffalo Ridge Resort, July 3rd, 4th and 5th! Many activities for the whole family and tours daily of the Buffalo Ridge Resort Campus (formally the South Dakota School for the Blind). Pics soon to come!
Vision soon to be restored in Gary SD.

Everything is moving forward as planned at Buffalo Ridge Resort. The walls for the Racquetball court are up, and the fitness center will begin its transformation. Lake Elsie is scheduled to be filled up next week and the grass is starting to grow around the premises. With the landscaping beginning next week, it will be exciting to watch the “vision” begin to take shape. Stay tuned for more updates and pictures.
Buffalo Ridge Resort is beginning to take shape.

If you have not been to Gary in the past few months, you will notice a few changes. The Buffalo Ridge Resort (formally the South Dakota School for the Blind) is starting to look like so many remember it. The two dorms that used to hold the blind students, have now been transformed into the Herrick Hotel, and the Woodbury Hall. The lake that once was filled in, has now been dug out and Lake Elsie has appeared with Talking Water Campground around its beautiful shoreline. With a 3rd of July Grand Opening for the Resort, there is much work that is still to be done. The racquetball court and fitness center are well on their way, as well as the landscaping which begins in the next week or so. Please keep checking, as I will keep you posted to updates and photos of our progress. It is an exciting time!
