Update - Aurora State Airport Runway Closure Scheduled for 5/21

Update 5/1 - To complete the final markings application from last year's runway rehabilitation project, the runway at the Aurora State Airport will be closed for part of one day on Thursday May 21st. 

In the summer and fall of 2025, the runway was fully repaved to repair extensive cracking and surface delamination, as well as correct non-standard grading of the crown. Airfield markings are applied on fresh asphalt in 2 coats, and due to challenges planning for this weather dependent work, the final markings application was pushed to this spring. 


Update - Wakonda Beach State Airport Reopened!

Update 4/28 -

The runway at the Wakonda Beach State Airport has reopened.

The runway closed temporarily in February due to turf damage resulting from an aircraft accident. With help from local volunteers and ODAV staff, the runway and parking area are good as new!

Turf conditions remain soft, so we encourage pilots to exercise typical soft field precautions, especially if it has rained recently. 

Safe and happy flying!
