Lt. Governor Micah Beckwith, who also serves as the state’s Secretary of Agriculture, will kick off the evening with an introductory speech to provide an update on the Indiana State Department of Agriculture. Beckwith will also deliver the invocation before the dinner.
C.J. Miller with Hoosier Ag Today will serve as the Master of Ceremonies for the event.
