February 10th, 2026, Pierre, sd
Legislative Reception.
Insurance regulations affect how we all do business. We carefully monitor all upcoming legislation and make sure that the voices of independent insurance agents are heard at the Capitol!
We host the legislative reception each year during session, and it’s a great opportunity for agents to get face-to-face with our lawmakers.
This event is a very casual and comfortable time to discuss your concerns with legislators over a cocktail or two!

E&O Roadshow.

June 16th – 17th
River Days.
Join us in beautiful Pierre, SD for some summer FUN!
Try your hand at trap shooting, or compete in either our golf or fishing tournament. The golf “tournament” is a 4-man scramble, so no skills necessary! No fishing skills needed either, as attendees will be on a boat with a local “river-rat” that knows all the hot spots.
This is a great social event to connect and network with other insurance professionals from across the state!
October 11th – 13th, Canopy hotel, Sioux Falls, SD
Annual convention.
Don’t miss the premier gathering of South Dakota’s independent insurance community. The IIASD Annual Convention brings together agents, carriers, and industry partners for a dynamic mix of education, networking, and fun. Gain valuable insights, build relationships, and celebrate the strength of the independent agency system. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or new to the industry, this is your chance to connect, learn, and grow. We’ll see you there!
November 20th – 21st, Dana Dykhouse stadium, Brookings, SD
Crop Convention.
Don’t miss a full day of learning, networking, and ag industry insights at the 2025 Crop Conference! Hear from top speakers, take some Crop E&O (eligible for E&O credit), and connect with fellow professionals from across the region.
After the conference, join us for a social event in Brookings to unwind and network. Stay overnight using our Friday room block, then start Saturday off right with the Great American Tailgate — all attendees receive a ticket to the SDSU vs. USD football game!
