Get out those poodle skirts and leather jackets ready for an old fashioned Sock Hop when the Clarendon Chamber of Commerce hosts its annual awards banquet Thursday, February 23, at the Bairfield Activity Center.
Tickets are on sale now for the 1950s-themed event, which will recognize several outstanding citizens in Donley County. The awards to be given will be the Saints’ Roost Award for a lifetime of service to the community and the Man and Woman of the Year, and Business of the Year in addition to recognitions for outstanding youth from Clarendon and Hedley.
Musical entertainment for the evening will be by Jackie Haney & the Geezers Gone Wild, which features Clarendon native Charlie Clinton on the keyboard. It will be rockin’ good time that you won’t want to miss.
The evening will begin at 6 p.m. with hors d’oeuvres and hospitality including the annual Chamber silent auction and gift box pull. The banquet, entertainment, and awards will follow at 7 p.m.
Those attending are encouraged to dress up like the 1950s, and businesses are also invited to purchase blocks of tickets by sponsoring tables at the event. Table sponsors will get to decorate their tables to reflect their business and the theme of the banquet with a prize given for the best table decoration.
Tickets are $25 per person and must be purchased in advance at the Visitor Center. For more information, call 806-874-2421.
