Operation Thank You returns in November for another year of connection and appreciation

One of the Chamber’s longest-standing traditions, Operation Thank You, returns Thursday, Nov. 13, bringing together nearly 300 volunteers for a day dedicated to gratitude, connection and community pride.

During the event, members of the Chamber’s Diplomat Committee and their volunteers will personally visit Chamber member businesses across the Sioux Falls area to deliver their 2026 membership decal and extend a heartfelt thank you for their continued support of the Chamber and the local business community.

“We’re thrilled to carry on this long-standing tradition that brings together hundreds of volunteers to connect, network and learn more about our local businesses and the impact they have on our community,” said event chair Lenn Patterson George of West Plains Engineering, a Chamber member since 1988. “The decal is a visible symbol that a business is invested in Sioux Falls and part of what makes our community thrive.”
