Your Weekly Glimpse Into Sioux Falls Life |
Good morning friend,
August is here and the adventure continues here in Sioux Falls. So far this month, I've gone to the fair, which was great! Won a unicorn by breaking some bottles, and our kiddos enjoyed a lot of rides. Glad there were enough rides for the little ones.
And Spider-Man! If you're a fan of Spider-Man, check it out sometime this week.
In this issue, there's a whole lot of fun and new things to be discovered.
Enjoy, and I'll see you out there.
With every new crew member that hops into this world, we've had a survey, and last week I added a new question to the survey.
That question is: Would You Be Interested In a Halloween Event?
I'd love for you to pitch in and let me know if it's something you'd be interested in.
Our last dinner club went fantastic. The afterparty was also quite fun at Gateway. They have never, ever disappointed whenever we've had an afterparty with them. The next dinner club is in 16 days. Coming up quite fast.
Here's how it works if you haven't tried it yet:
🍽️ Take a quick quiz about your personality, interests, and food preferences.
✨ Get matched with five other SuFu locals who fit your vibe.
📍 Your table of six meets for dinner on Thursday, the 20th. The exact restaurant is revealed that morning.
🥂 After dinner, all groups are invited to a casual after-meetup to keep the conversation going.
Grab your seat at our next Dinner Club on August 20th @6:30pm.

🏰 The Quinn Estate — A Murder Mystery at Minervas
Dear Friend,
Last week I told you Eleanor Quinn was murdered. This week, meet a few of the thirty people who might have done it.
There's a grandson who never opened a ledger, but signed away forty-one percent of his family's company. A companion, thirty years in the house, A shop girl nobody recognizes, quietly named the "first honest heir" Eleanor ever found.
One of these thirty poisoned her. All thirty are hiding something.
No acting required, just show up and start asking what nobody wants to answer.
$125 per guest, three-course dinner included, September 12th at Minerva's, 18 and up. Down to a handful of the 30 seats.
