Summer is here! And, with summer comes some new opportunities with Sioux Falls Synergy.

Three new committees are starting! Sioux Falls Synergy is looking for individuals to help coordinate the Jazzfest event, the Members Golf event and a new Civic project. Committees are a great way to connect with other members and feel more included. It is a chance to share some of your expertise and talents. The more members involved with Synergy events, the better they are.

We hope these committees offer more opportunities for you as members to become more involved and have more direct input. If interested in the Jazzfest committee contact Cindy Elifrits at cindy@seuw.org. If interested in the Civic committee contact Jennifer Johnson at jjohnson@snbsd.com. If interested in the Members Golf Event contact Stu Webber at swebber@siouxfallscc.com.

A big thanks to everyone who came out to Sioux Falls Synergy’s 2^nd Annual Celebration. Over 50 strong, attendees enjoyed a full spread, networking, samples of summer's most popular beverages, drawings and entertainment from Nick Rallis.

It was a great evening!

And, it was simply a taste of what you can expect from Sioux Falls Synergy this summer. You can expect to Hot Spot at Granite City, expose yourself to Dale Carnegie’s Leadership philosophy, and lay back in a tent at Jazzfest. In addition, Sioux Falls Synergy hopes to provide information about other events this summer on our Community Opportunities link.

There has never been a better time to become a Sioux Falls Synergy member. If you have joined for 2008-2009 – thank you! If you have not, take a moment now to sign up online.

See you this summer!

How many of you know where you were on Thursday, May 11, 2006? Were you one of 210 who went to Braccos curious about a new organization for young professionals called Sioux Falls Synergy?

Two years later Sioux Falls Synergy proudly stands as Sioux Falls' premier young professional organization. And, to celebrate our two years of success, Sioux Falls Synergy invites you to our 2nd Annual Celebration on Thursday, May 8 at CJ Callaways. After all, it was you who joined Synergy that evening, or shortly there after. Or, you happened to hear about Sioux Falls Synergy from a co-worker or friend and thought you might swing by a Hot Spot to see what it was all about, finding yourself signing up to attend a professional development luncheon or social. And, it was you again who told another friend or colleague about your experience and invited them to attend the next event.

As a member, you are the one who decides if Sioux Falls Synergy brings value to Sioux Falls and to you as a young professional. And, Sioux Falls Synergy thanks you. After two years, more than 240 different young professionals have joined; over 550 young professionals want to know what to hear about our happenings through our email communications; and even more visit the website.

Please be part of a special evening on Thursday, May 8. And, please continue your membership in Year 3. Sign up today by clicking on the "Membership" link above. And, cheers to another great year!
