President’s Picnic

By: Matthew Sterud

Thursday, September 22, 2022, celebrated another successful President’s Picnic. An opportunity for students, staff, and the board of trustees to gather for some free food and entertainment on the University of Sioux Falls’ beautiful campus. President Bradfield says that “we try to make it a big community event where students and employees and their families are invited.” Attendees of the picnic were treated to a delicious burger bar, plenty of sweet treats, and a drink of choice. The entertainment of the evening was provided by Richard Shaw Jr., a celebrity saxophonist with an unmatched talent. Shaw Jr. even played two saxophones at the same time! President Bradfield says that Shaw is “an incredible musician. He’s a lot of fun and he’s very mobile.” Richard Shaw Jr. also stopped by USF’s band classes and the homecoming game tailgate. President Bradfield wants everyone to know that the picnic is a “festive opportunity to get together as a community, enjoy fellowship, enjoy food, and hopefully have a great time and understand the culture of the University we’re trying to build.”
