Welcome Center Info

Once you have arrived in Goodland, you’ll want to stop at the Goodland Welcome Center for information, brochures, and a list of the current happenings in town before seeing everything Goodland has to offer. Conveniently located in front of the Van Gogh “Big Easel” and Pioneer Dog Park, the Welcome Center at 524 E. Hwy 24 is an excellent resource for all tourists and visitors to the Sherman County community. The Welcome Center was opened in 2017 and houses the office of the Sherman County Community Development Corporation.

Please give us a call before stopping by to ensure someone will be in the office to assist you.
