LAND DONATION MOVES ALONG SOCCER AND SPORTS COMPLEX
June 16th, 2008

RAPID CITY — Land donation moves soccer complex closer to reality as Hill City couple donates land for 24-field complex

Developer and tax attorney Doyle Estes and his wife, business consultant and South Dakota regent Kathy Johnson of Hill City donated an 80-acre tract of land to the city Thursday, June 5, paving the way for a 24-field soccer complex to be built several miles north of I-90 past the Flying J truck stop.

Brian Pitts, executive director of Rapid City Soccer/Sport Complex, said the donation of the land marked a big day in the development of the complex. He said Estes' and Johnson's generosity is enormous and they are hoping to start dirt work next year.
