Empowered women empower women in South Dakota
women at SD CEO women in business conference

On May 23, a group of women from our Rapid City, South Dakota, office attended the SD CEO The Pivot: Great and Small Awards Event. We were the lunch sponsor at the event.

Those in attendance had the opportunity to hear from local women business owners about what they did to make their business successful. They also spoke about how their personal contributed to their path towards owning their own business.

There was also an activity at the awards event that focused on team building. Each table was tasked with building the tallest structure using only marshmallows and spaghetti noodles. Our team worked together to create their structure, and in the end created the tallest one at the event.

The women who represented our company at the event from left to right are Grace Wilson, Claudine Bates, Rachel Pfeifle, Lynn Kendall, Val Simpson and Madison Harris

We partner with our communities and customers, providing the kind of energy that fuels those areas and the lives of those we serve. Feel free to share the stories and photos. Follow us on FacebookInstagram, LinkedInTwitter, YouTube, and Pinterest for more!
