SD’s Festival Of Books Goes Virtual!

South Dakota Festival of Books 2020

The South Dakota Festival of Books is always an event worth checking out. Every year they bring the talent with a local twist. The problem is that it bounces around the state and only lands here in Sioux Falls every once in a while. But this year it’s been Covid’d (like everything!) and it’s going virtual.

Bummer, no doubt, but hey…problem solved!

Most everything is free, you’ve just got to register. They do have a few sessions happening at $20-a-pop, but that’s not too much to donate to a good cause.

Check out the line up here, and make a point of tuning in and getting inspired!

Didn’t Get to Tedx Sioux Falls? YouTube’ll Do Ya!

And it ain’t all just talkin’!

Tickets went fast, and who’s got time for this kind of thing on a workday anyway? But still, we know you woulda loved to go. I know we did.

So check out the next best thing! As Siouxfalls.business is reporting, all of the talks are up on YouTube, so you can watch all of our bright young local things on demand, with a beer in hand.

Check out the links, then pop some popcorn and learn a thing or two!

Libertarian Candidate Coming to Sioux Falls!

Jo Jorgensen For President

Wait a minute! You mean there’s more than two guys running for President?

Why yes! You’ve got other choices, America! And going Libertarian is one of them! We aren’t going to get into politics here, but if you’re the kind of South Dakotan likes guns and weed and generally just being left alone, you might want to check them out.

This year Dr. Jo Jorgensen is running on the Libertarian ticket, and she’s making a stop in Sioux Falls September 22nd. The details are still being ironed out, but check out their “Save The Date” Facebook page for updates.

She’s a professor, a politician, a mom, and an entrepreneur. Sounds like she’s got a lot on-the-ball! Who knows, maybe she’ll have a few good ideas for the Washington too.

We’re planning on checking her out! At the very least, it’s good to options.
