The SD National Guard has a new 141,000 square foot readiness center and headquarters that will accommodate the missions of 15 divisions of the South Dakota Army and Air National Guard. The facility will provide the National Guard with a state-of-the-art asset and support services center. The headquarters features high-level office and administrative spaces, along with an assembly hall and technologically advanced classrooms/training rooms. Other support functions consist of a cafeteria with a full kitchen, a fitness center, lockers, showers and arms storage. The site includes parking areas for military vehicles, as well as refueling stations, a wash platform, two loading platforms and force protection measures with security fencing. The design, construction and daily operations of this building are guided by the LEED Rating System to reduce its impact on the environment. The building is the crown jewel of the Guard Camp and is one of the most advanced of its kind.
