    CUSTER STATE PARK TATANKA 2021 CAMPING RESERVATIONS: CAMPSD.COM | 1.800.710.2267 1 WELCOME TO CUSTER STATE PARK Thank you for choosing to visit Custer State Park. As I reflect on 2020, I know many are glad to see it behind us due to the uncertainty of COVID-19. We may not realize the true impact COVID-19 has on the world for some time, but I can tell you the impact it had on Custer State Park. It created a new level of team atmosphere. It pulled all the staff from diverse backgrounds together to work as one. There are no passengers when it comes to operating Custer State Park, everyone is part of the crew. Outside the view of the typical user, there is a small army of dedicated permanent, seasonal, and volunteer staff that day in and day out rise to the challenge of enhancing the visitor’s experience. They are a mixture of front-line ambassadors, as well as many behind-the-scenes ambassadors who all work diligently to make Custer State Park a great place to visit. When we were given the green light to open with reduced staff, everyone pulled together to make sure the tasks were completed. This meant many staff found themselves doing jobs that fall into the category of, “other duties as assigned.” It was anything but a normal operating season. The goal of providing the best possible experience for our visitors stayed front and center as staff embraced the new normal and the unexpected twists and turns of the summer season.
