South Dakota man gifted RV for his community impact
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (Dakota News Now) -Brad Nelson with South Dakota Parks and Recreation was recognized by Bish’s RV in collaboration with Jayco’s Campers “Hometown Hero” program, where community members can be nominated for the impact they’ve made.
“I volunteer for veterans’ outdoor therapy. We strongly believe that there is a healing power in nature and being outdoors. So we provide fully funded outdoor activities like hunting, fishing, camping. Which makes sense with the camper. It just makes big differences in their lives,” said Brad Nelson, Park Manager, Rock Point Recreation.
“I think it’s very important because of the things we are at Bish’s RV, our inventory is to design and build memories. And when somebody goes above and beyond, does a great job, and they’re able to build memories, it’s good for everybody and the community,” said Teague Williams, General Manager, Bish’s RV.
Nelson says the RV won’t be used for himself. Instead, he’ll use it to help military veterans get outdoors and enjoy nature.
