There's been rumblings for at least a couple of years that the Sioux City plant--or the Sioux Falls plant in my community--or both might close. The closure is a terrible blow to Siouxland and to the Morrell employees. There's going to be a lot of pain for a lot of people. But Sioux City has a lot going for it. A great location. Good transportation options with I-29, Sioux Gateway Airport, and the Missouri River. A vibrant cultural and arts scene with great facilities like the Anderson Pavilion, the Tyson Center, and the Sioux City Art Museum. But it is the people of Siouxland who will overcome this. The now very diverse people of Siouxland from nearly every corner of the earth along with the native Sioux Citians who have weathered bad weather and bad economies in the past. Hang in there, Sioux City. This is one Sioux Empirian who is pulling for you and thinks you'll come out of this an even better community. I'll have some more thoughts on all this later.
