This week
🎈 Family Balloon Drop Party @ Skate City | Wednesday (12/31) at 10:00 AM – New Year’s Eve at Skate City, but in daylight, so you can celebrate, sugar up the kids, and still be home before the neighbor’s fireworks. Expect skating, a balloon drop stuffed with prizes, door giveaways, party favors, and $15 admission, $4 rentals.
🎉 Noon Year’s Eve Party @ Wings Gymnastics Academy | Wednesday (12/31) at 11:00 AM – Let the kids ring in the new year at noon at Wings, then you get a blissful breather of quiet. Open gym, a craft, and a balloon drop keep them busy, and ages 5+ can be dropped off. Spots are limited, register ahead.
🏓 NYE Pickleball and Potluck @ Remedy Pickleball Pub | Wednesday (12/31) at 8:00 PM – Ring in 2026 with a New Year’s Eve pickleball bash and potluck, champagne toast included. Ten bucks gets you in, free if you’re an Open Play member. Bring a winning casserole, your paddle, and your A-game, then pretend cardio cancels the carbs.
🏐 Madhatter & Mimosas Volleyball Tournament @ Special Olympics South Dakota | Thursday (1/1) at 10:00 AM – Kick off New Year’s Day with a Madhatter volleyball shuffle, sign up solo and get rotated through four 6v6 teams across A and B/Rec. No muffins, free mimosas for players, with prizes for champs and lovable low scorers. These fill fast, so secure your spot.
🤼 South Dakota State vs. Arizona State Wrestling @ Sanford Sports Complex | Friday (1/2) at 12:00 AM – Pentagon nights mean singlets, scuffed mats, and a whistle echo. Jackrabbits face Arizona State in a no frills wrestling dual, all grit, no glitter, and a couple cauliflower ears. Beat the chill, cheer for takedowns, then brag about riding time, grab tickets here: https://san.fo/4pRq4NR
⛳ Golfmas Day 12 @ Great Shots | Friday (1/2) at 9:00 AM – Holiday golf deals still rolling at Great Shots, and Day 12 is the good stuff. Book an hour, snag an entry to win one of three Titanium Memberships, then justify another hour as “research.” Your winter cardio can be full swings, not snow shovels.
This weekend
💉 January Shot Clinic @ Sioux Nation Pet Clinic | Saturday (1/3) at 8:00 AM – Monthly walk-in shot clinic means no appointment, minimal drama, and up-to-date pets. Swing by between errands to knock out rabies, distemper, and more, with wallet-friendly add-ons like nail trims and deworming, because the dog park has standards, and your cat’s attitude isn’t a vaccine.
🏃 Frosty Frolics Fun Run/Walk 5k & 10k @ Spencer Park | Saturday (1/3) at 9:00 AM – Frosty Frolics is luring us out for a brisk 5k or 10k run or walk along the Big Sioux, because nothing says community like choosing to move in the cold. Ten bucks gets you fun, register early for a t-shirt, registration required, day-of signups welcome.
🔫 Trophy Gun Show @ Sioux Falls Convention Center | Saturday (1/3) at 9:00 AM – Whether you’re shopping for hardware or people-watching, swing by the Sioux Falls Trophy Gun Show and say hello to Post 15. They’ll answer veterans’ questions about the Legion and benefits, and they’ve got flags, flagpoles, and solar lights if your porch needs pride.
⚗ New Year Intention Retreat @ Alchemy House | Sunday (1/4) at 9:30 AM – Skip the resolution treadmill, exhale at Alchemy House, no new you required. Nine hours of intention setting, mini astrology reads, breathwork with the BioCharger, a salt room, an herbal foot soak, and a closing sound bath. $222, 20 spots, leave clear, calm, and pleasantly human.
🎨 Good Nabor Art Market @ Good NAtured | Sunday (1/4) at 11:00 AM – Skip the crowded craft circus and pop into Good NAtured’s cozy little market, where four local makers set up shop and actually have time to talk. Browse handmade goods, sip your coffee, and catch up with neighbors, no elbowing, no overwhelm, just Sunday well spent.
