DICK's House of Sport in Oakdale Commons is now open and is sure to be a popular destination for local sports enthusiasts. With an impressive 140,000 square feet, the Johnson City store is now the largest DICK's location in the world. What makes this worthy of sharing with our Macaroni KID families?
