Similar to the Johnstown location, the new Colorado Springs Scheels will be home to entertainment attractions, specialty shops and boutiques.

The Colorado Springs location will include a 65-foot operating Ferris Wheel, a 16,000-gallon saltwater aquarium with more than 600 fish, a wildlife mountain, and Fuzziwig’s Candy Shop. Ginna’s Cafe will serve gourmet soups and sandwiches, homemade fudge and specialty coffee.
“With the success of our store in Johnstown, we are thrilled to bring a second store to the Colorado market and specifically to Colorado Springs,” CEO Steve M. Scheel said in the announcement. Scheels is the great grandson of the sporting goods store’s founder.
Scheels has 27 existing stores and two expected to open in 2020 — a replacement for an existing store in Eden Prairie, Minn., and a new store in The Colony, Texas. The Colorado Springs store will employ more than 350 associates, all employee owners.
