Some accuse me of being a Negative Nancy when it comes to Sioux Falls, but I will give credit, when credit is due.
Teri Ellis Schmidt, SMGÂ and their teams deserve a big thumbs up for bringing in Pheasant Fest. It’s the first time SD hosted the event (that really should be here every year) and the largest convention the city has ever seen. We are expecting over 30,000 visitors.
But let’s just be honest here, unlike Garth Brooks who stripped over $7 million from our community in a matter of days, Pheasant fest will bring in millions in economic impact that will truly get re-circulated in our community! And that is something to celebrate and praise.
