Sertoma Park
One Great Park - Three kinds of fun!

The Outdoor Campus is located in Sertoma Park, one of the Sioux Falls Parks and Recreation Department's excellent city parks.

In Sertoma Park, you'll find a huge picnic shelter, six "playpods" designed for all different ages and abilities and great scenery along the Big Sioux River. For picnic shelter reservations, call the City Parks and Recreation Office at (605) 367-7060.

The Sertoma Butterfly House is the newest addition to the park. Visitors to this attraction will find 700-1000 butterflies in a tropical setting, flying all around! For more information on hours and admission, go to www.sertomabutterflyhouse.org or call (605) 334-9466.
