SIOUX FALLS, SD (KELO.com) — A second Apple Tree Childcare Center slated for closing may stay open.  Apple Tree Executive Director Randy Stewart says a deal to keep Apple Tree North open is in its final stages.  Apple Tree West announced at the beginning of the week that it would remain open.  The questions began last week when Apple Tree announced it would be closing all four of its centers in Sioux Falls, creating a scramble for parents searching for care for their children in an already tight market.
