Need some new gear or clothes for your next outdoor adventure? Make a day of it at the Scheels location in Billings, one of 31 nationwide. This 220,000-square-foot retail center is so much more than a store; it’s an adventure to match the one you’re buying for! You may even forget why you came, with so many unusual features for a store.

A 65-foot Ferris wheel dominates the main lobby and should be your first clue that this isn’t your average sporting goods store.

The entertainment doesn’t stop there. Within the store, you’ll find a 16,000-gallon aquarium and an educational walk about American presidents.
