The 118th Annual Meeting of Greater Sioux Falls Chamber of Commerce will feature a special performance by the chart-topping rock band, REO Speedwagon. Building on the theme “Keep Pushin’ On,” the event will celebrate the history of Sioux Falls, recognize the fabric of our community today and invite everyone to pursue a shared vision for the future.
The annual gathering of local business leaders will be held on Tuesday, October 15 at the Denny Sanford PREMIER Center. The 118th Annual Meeting launches the one-year term of the incoming chair of the Chamber’s board of directors, Miles Beacom, CEO of PREMIER Bankcard. Beacom will assume the Chamber’s top volunteer position October 1, succeeding 2023-24 chair of the board Scott Lawrence, CEO of Lawrence & Schiller, Inc. The Chamber will also share priorities for the coming year and acknowledge the contributions of retiring directors.
REO Speedwagon has sold more than 40 million records and had thirteen Top 40 hits. Their number one tracks include “Keep On Loving You” and “Can’t Fight This Feeling.” The theme of the 118th Annual Meeting, “Keep Pushin’ On,” comes from another REO hit single.
