Kalahari Resort adds 65 jobs with new indoor theme park
The Business Journal of Milwaukee
The Kalahari Resort will add 65 jobs in December with the opening of a $20 million, 110,000-square-foot indoor theme park at its Wisconsin Dells resort and convention complex.
The new theme park will provide management, security, maintenance, food service and concierge jobs to the Wisconsin Dells area. In addition to on-site employment, the indoor theme park will give local vendors more growth opportunities, said Todd Nelson, the president and owner of Kalahari Resorts.
“At a time when most employers are cutting back, we are excited to expand our entertainment offerings,” said Nelson.
The $20 million addition to the Kalahari Resort and Convention Center gives the resort more than 235,000 square feet of indoor water park space. The resort also has 742 guest rooms and suites, eight restaurants, Spa Kalahari and Salon, three shopping areas, and a 100,000-square-foot convention center. The complex also includes a 15-screen Desert Cinema.
Nelson owns a second Kalahari Resort in the resort town of Sandusky, Ohio.
