SD Broadcasting History and Museum Coming to Yankton

SD Broadcasting History and Museum Coming to Yankton

A small idea has turned into a big project to bring the history of South Dakota radio and television to the Riverfront Broadcasting location at 1019 Broadway in Yankton.

Riverfront Broadcasting Owner Carolyn Becker is also the President of the South Dakota Broadcasters Association, and says a collection of vintage radios will become part of a museum in Yankton.

Priscilla Mazourek’s husband had dozens of old radios in their basement, and she has donated them to be part of the museum.

Carolyn Becker says the collection of vintage radios will be just a part of the history of South Dakota broadcasting featured in Yankton.

Riverfront Yankton General Manager Curt Dykstra has led the charge to bring a broadcasting museum in 2021 to the studios at 1019 Broadway
