Huron: Pheasant Country and the State Fair Grounds
Huron hosts the South Dakota State Fair every Labor Day weekend on a 190-acre fairgrounds on the south side of the city. The fair has run continuously since 1905 and draws exhibits in livestock, horticulture, and home arts along with concerts at the Nordby Exhibit Hall. The city of 13,313 residents in Beadle County sits at the junction of U.S. Highways 14 and 281 in east-central South Dakota.
A 40-foot fiberglass ringneck pheasant statue stands at the northwest edge of Huron on Dakota Avenue. Installed in 1959, the statue reflects the surrounding farmland's reputation as prime pheasant habitat. Huron and the Beadle County fields draw hunters from across the country each fall during the pheasant season, which traditionally opens on the third Saturday of October and runs through January.
Huron University, founded in 1883 as a Baptist institution, operated in the city for 122 years before closing in 2005. The campus buildings have since been repurposed. Huron Regional Medical Center is the largest employer in Beadle County, and Dakota Provisions, a turkey processing plant opened in 2005, employs roughly 1,200 workers. Hubert H. Humphrey, the 38th U.S. vice president, spent part of his youth in Huron where his family ran Humphrey Drug.
