I think a lot of us are ready to give 2016 the ol' heave-ho. Let's kick this year to the curb. Ring in a fresh new year Saturday night with music, wine, dancing and anything else that makes you forget your troubles of the past year.

There are several events taking place in and around the Sioux Empire that you can check out. Here's a list of 10 events we found to help you usher in 2017.
