The Crowley Chamber of Commerce and Supreme Rice would like to invite you to our annual Farmers’ Appreciation Dinner in honor of the farmers who make such a large contribution to the culture and economy of Acadia Parish. This year’s banquet will be held on Thursday, January 25, 2018 at the International Rice Festival Building in Crowley. Guests will arrive at 5:30 p.m. for a social hour and the opportunity to view booth exhibits from local vendors. A jambalaya dinner with trimmings will follow at 6:30 p.m.
This dinner is largely financed through tickets purchased by local businesses and individuals at a fee of $10.00 per ticket, which includes dinner and drinks. Of course, this event would not be possible without our generous title sponsor, Supreme Rice, and our event sponsors who are listed below. We would like to take this opportunity to thank them for their support. In addition, we would like to thank Rice Palace and G&H Outdoor Store for the donation of a Berretta A300 12– Gauge Automatic Shotgun that will be raffled at the dinner. Raffle tickets can be purchased from any Chamber Board member or at the Chamber office for $5 each.
We are truly excited about this amazing opportunity to bring our farming community together and support their efforts. If you have any other questions or need more information, please feel free to call our office, 337-788-0177. We appreciate your support and look forward to seeing you on January 25th!
Special Thanks to the 2018 Sponsors!
