South Wood County Airport Manager Jeremy Sickler shares exciting news about a $2.7 million FAA grant aimed at modernizing the 50-year-old terminal. This upgrade promises to transform the airport by improving infrastructure, adding ADA-compliant facilities, and creating public observation areas. While the grant marks a significant start, Sickler aims to raise up to $6 million through local sponsorships. The airport, a key economic driver, especially with Sand Valley's influence, has seen growth in aircraft activity and fuel sales. Upcoming plans include a dream terminal to enhance community engagement and attract more business to the region.
