Community Centers Open For New Season


Sioux Falls offers 5 great Community Centers throughout different areas of the city.  The centers offer many great opportunities for the community, young and old(er), to run off some extra energy, meet up with friends and shoot some hoops or play board games, indoor walking, attend classes offered through Sioux Falls Parks & Recreation and more!




The classes offered may have a small nominal fee, however many of the activities at the Community Centers are free!


A few favorite activities to note:

Morning Play Group - A great option for mid-morning (10 AM - 12 PM) play for toddlers and younger that have energy to burn!  This is a great FREE opportunity during winter months. Meet up with a friend or two and play with the toys, ride-ons and balls that are available at Morningside Community Center on M/W/F and Kuehn Community Center T/TH!  See full calendar here.
