About the Venue

Pioneer Splash Pad brings a distinctive dinosaur theme to east Sioux Falls, centered around a giant turtle shell, a face-to-face dinosaur element, water tunnel play, and dino cannons. The city says it has more than 60 spray nozzles, giving it more visual interest than a basic spray loop. It is unsupervised, so it works best for families comfortable actively keeping eyes on kids in an open splash setting.
