South Dakota Supports Its Local Small Businesses
By Sen. John Thune
Since 99 percent of South Dakota
businesses are classified as small businesses, it’s fair to say we treat every
day like it’s Small Business Saturday,
the annual shopping event that occurs
shortly after Thanksgiving Day. It’s
a great way to shine a light on these
homegrown establishments that are
often pillars in our local communities.
It doesn’t matter where you grew up
or where you live now, there are always
a handful of restaurants, coffee shops,
or retailers that become household
names in your city or town. Maybe
it’s a pizza shop where friends meet
after school or on the weekends, or it
could be a popular store on Main Street
where you always buy a birthday gift
for your wife or husband.
For me, when I was growing up, one
of those places was the Star Family
Restaurant in Murdo. If you grew up in
Murdo or still live there today, the restaurant’s sign is as recognizable as the
big McDonald’s “M.” It was at the Star
Family Restaurant where we ended up
on many Mother’s Days – my dad would
treat my mom and the rest of the family
to dinner after church.
It’s the same restaurant where I
spent seven summers working to save
money and pay for college. I started
as a busboy, showed up at 5:45 in the
morning, and made one dollar an hour.
I worked my way to the back of the
restaurant and washed dishes and even
spent time in front of the grill. It was
a great place to learn critical life skills
like working together as a team, which
is important no matter where you are
in life.
For every story like mine, there
are hundreds or even thousands more
across the country, which is why
celebrating and honoring the contributions small businesses and their
owners make to local communities is so
important.
There are more than 85,000 small
businesses in South Dakota – a number
that climbs each year. These small busi-
nesses employ roughly 210,000 people,
which is nearly 60 percent of the state’s
total workforce. According to the U.S.
Small Business Administration, that
level of employment puts South Dakota
in the top four states nationwide for the
percent of its employment that comes
from small businesses.
There’s a wide range of industries
that serve as the foundation of the
state’s strong small business presence,
including construction, retail, food
services, entertainment, recreation, and
more. Bottom line, if you’re looking for
anything from a good place to eat to a
store where you can whittle down your
Christmas shopping list, there’s a place
in South Dakota that can meet your
needs.
I hope you spend this year’s Small
Business Saturday – and every day until
next year’s event – by shopping small,
as they say, in your community. It can
make a big difference to everyone who
depends on this local support.

Historical Society Press Takes Gold
Literary Classics Book Award
PIERRE, S.D.— “Glorious
Fourth of July and Other Stories
from the Plains,” a book released
in December 2017 by the South
Dakota State Historical Society,
recently received recognition at
the 2018 Literary Classics International Book Awards. The book
took gold in the Picture Book/Early
Reader, General category.
“Readers of all ages will delight
in the stories of young Catherine
growing up in an era in which
automobiles were a rare and exciting mode of transportation and
the heating of water on a woodburning stove was the norm,”
wrote a Literary Classics reviewer.
“Equally appropriate as a coffeetable book and as a read-aloud for
classroom reading, this timeless
book spans reading audiences of
nearly any age as it captures the
heart and kindles the imagination.”
The organization annually
recognizes books from around the
globe for their contributions to the
craft of writing and illustration for
a young audience.
“Glorious Fourth of July and
Other Stories from the Plains”
includes stories and artwork by
Catherine Rademacher Gibson, as
recounted by her daughter Mary
Gibson Sprague. From growing up
in Watertown, S.D., to travelling to
Montana and St. Paul, Minn., episodes from Catherine’s childhood
are illustrated by her “memory
paintings.” The book shares a
narrative common to many plains
families who migrated throughout
the United States at the beginning
of the 20th century. “Glorious
Fourth of July” is a testament to
the creative spirit and calls readers back to a time when children
relied on their own ingenuity to
occupy themselves.
This honor is the third for
“Glorious Fourth of July,” which
also won the top prize in the
Midwest Independent Publishing Association’s Midwest Book
Awards and the Western Writers
of America Spur Award. View the

Society Press catalog at sdhspress.
