Good Morning Sioux Falls Crew,

Happy Tuesday! I hope you had a great weekend despite the snow, wind, and freezing temps. It is supposed to be wicked windy today, so stay safe out there and stay warm.

This week, I'd like to share a few things with you. One, The Crew Card is available now, grab yours today!
I would love to do hand delivery and meet you in person, that's what community is all about! Or I can always mail if you prefer.

The second thing to share is that a few weeks ago, I ran a survey to see if a "Dinner Club" was up your alley, a way for current ATSF readers to connect with each other over a meal. We had a 100% approval rate but that was 4 weeks ago - and we have gained some new members since then, so there's another survey at the end of this email, do please give your feedback. If we get approval again, then we will get it started!

And last but certainly not least, our Trivia Question today has a giveaway! Get the answer correctly and you'll be entered into a drawing to get 2 floor tickets to Matthew Mayer's Holiday Piano & Dreams on the 18th of December at the Orpheum Theater! Trust me guys, this is going to be an experience of a lifetime.

In today's issue:

• Tidal Tale
• Local Restaurant
• Lots of Holiday Adventures

❗❗Trivia Time❗❗

Reply with your name and answer to be entered into the giveaway. Winner will be announced next issue! ​

Hiya Friends!
​
So there I was, waddling down Philips Avenue and let me just say, the winter wind was not messing around. It felt like it wanted to sweep me off my paws and send me tumbling into the snow.
But I wasn’t about to let a little breeze ruin my mission of obtaining winter gear from The Great Outdoor Store. Nope!

I had my headphones pumping music through my ears, keeping me grounded, keeping me moving.

Then...oh friends, you know that feeling when a song just hits your soul? Well, it hit me. Every note, every beat, it shook something awake inside me. I started moving without thinking, letting the rhythm take over. My tail swished, my paws tapped, my whole otter-self was grooving. I didn’t even know I could feel that much.

So, I peeked at my MP3, and to my surprise, here was the name of a Sioux Falls local artist, Allie LaRock and her song titled, "Beauty".

Sometimes the best surprises come in the coldest of times... or streets.
