Slaton Ag & Commerce Luncheon

The annual Slaton Ag and Commerce Luncheon has been cancelled for 2020.  Aside from the COVID-19 protocols, we've run into a few other issues that will prevent us from hosting it this year. However, we will come back bigger and better next year. Please keep it on your calendar for next September.
The First Bale Award will still be presented.  Centennial Bank (Happy State Bank) will make the presentation as soon as we receive word of the first bale. 
Thank you to everyone who supports Slaton, our businesses and our community.
