Inexpensive Family Reunion Venue in Sioux Falls?

We are planning a two day family reunion to be held in Sioux Falls, South Dakota in the summer of 2013. We would like to meet inside on either a Saturday or Sunday. (The other day, we'll meet in a park.) As a very rough estimate, we're expecting 75 people. We've checked meeting and party rooms at hotels and have found them to be fairly expensive. Do you have suggestions for inexpensive places to meet? The more specific, the better!

I live in Sioux Falls, and everything is expensive here. Have you checked into your church fellowship hall? Or does somebody have a basement in their house that isn't divided up into several rooms, that could be used? It wouldn't have to be a finished basement, just a cement room would work.

If you wanted to you could paint the cement walls a cream color. You don't need a fancy place. If it was me I wouldn't hesitate to use an unfinished basement. From what I understand the parks charge a fee for gatherings too. I might be wrong on that, but it seems like I have heard that.

I live in Sioux Falls as well, and depending on where you're looking and what you want to spend will influence where you want to meet.

I know that Skelly's downtown doesn't charge anything, and all ages can be in the bar/pub. They have a great selection of food, and the staff is super nice. Plus, there's no more smoking in bars either, so you don't have to worry about smelling like smoke. I would call them to ask if you can use their space.

The Parks and Rec office charge a small fee of $25 to reserve a picnic shelter.

Here's a link to help you find a park shelter with the accomodations you need for your outdoor day:

I would also contact the parks and rec dept to see if you could rent out one of their rooms at their community centers. If renting out a shelter is $25, I'm sure renting a room at the community center is probably just as cheap.
