History of Pickstown
Built on a plateau overlooking the former site of FORT RANDALL and the scenic Missouri River in 1948 by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Pickstown was named after the Corps Chief, Lieutenant General Lewis Pick, co-author of the Pick-Sloan Plan.
The Town was developed to accommodate the workers who constructed the Fort Randall Dam. It was completed in 1956. The town was the natural classroom for the youngster known to all of us today as Tom Brokaw.
After the completion of the Dam, during the cold war era, the town then served as a home to the personnel manning the nearby Air Force radar station.
In 1986 the town was incorporated as an independent community.
Located on the historic Lewis and Clark Trail, our quiet little town has many attractions for tourists and outdoor enthusiasts alike.
We have several convenience stores, fuel stations, a steak house, credit union, post office, storage facilities, an electrical contractor as well as two RV parks and a nine-hole golf course with club house.
