History of South Dakota Hall of Fame-Chamberlain, South Dakota
In beautiful Chamberlain, South Dakota, there resides the official South Dakota Hall of Fame. Honoring the contributions and people who made this state great, the Hall of Fame has displays on numerous people who shaped history. Among the more famous members of this diverse group are Lawrance Welk, Mary Hart, Bob Barker, Hubert Humphrey, George McGovern, and Laura Ingalls Wilder. The list of inductees is long, varied, and immensely interesting.
