Our Story
OUR FOUNDING
South Dakota Ghostbusters was founded in 2014 with a clear mission: bring positive energy, creativity, and community support to Sioux Falls and the greater Sioux Empire. For over a decade, we’ve proudly served the region as an established Ghostbusters team built by local fans who believe in giving back.
We don’t just suit up for fun. We show up for charity fundraisers, community festivals, parades, and public events across the Sioux Empire. From screen-accurate gear to professional appearances, our focus has always been simple: suit up, have fun, and make a difference.
Our Growth
Since 2014, South Dakota Ghostbusters has participated in more than 100 public events throughout Sioux Falls and the surrounding Sioux Empire region. From large charity fundraisers to local community celebrations, we’ve built a reputation for authenticity, professionalism, and crowd engagement.
Our Ecto vehicles, proton packs, and Ghostbusters equipment have become recognizable fixtures at events across the Sioux Empire. As a dedicated South Dakota Ghostbusters team, we continue to grow by staying creative, staying local, and staying committed to the communities we serve.
Our mission
Our mission is straightforward: support local charities, connect with families, and bring the spirit of Ghostbusters to Sioux Falls and the Sioux Empire.
We focus on real community involvement through real participation. Every event, appearance, and fundraiser is rooted in our commitment to local impact.
