Cabela’s Opens New Store in Reno, Nevada

Posted by Sherril Steele-Carlin on November 19, 2007

Ok, so it’s not a National Park (yet, anyway!), but it just may be a local national wonder. Outdoor retailer Cabela’s has opened a new store in Reno, and it is taking the area by storm. The first day of business, was Friday, Nov. 16, and estimates indicate that over 45,000 people flooded the store on opening day.

If you’re not familar with Cabela’s, they are an outdoor mega-merchant that carries everything from hunting gear to camping gear and even holiday special foods, like smoked meats and such. The reason their stores are so popular is because they offer more than just retail, they offer a taxidermy display, live aquarium with native fish, and actually are more of a destination location, rather than just a retailer. If you want to check out the Reno store, take Interstate 80 West to the Verdi/Garson Road exit (the Boomtown exit), and follow the signs (and the traffic!).
