Indiana Gov. Mike Braun will be the Featured Guest at the 20th Annual “Taste of Shelby County Agriculture” banquet on Wednesday at Horseshoe Indianapolis in Shelbyville.
The event is hosted by the Shelby County Ag Promotion Committee.
Braun will be joined on stage that evening by Mitch Frazier, President and CEO of AgriNovus Indiana, for a “Fireside Chat” to discuss Braun’s policies regarding Indiana agriculture, as well as his proposals to help Hoosier farmers.
Following Braun, Dr. Bret Marsh, the new Dean for Purdue University’s College of Veterinary Medicine, will also serve as a guest for another “Fireside Chat” to discuss his expertise in foreign animal diseases—including Bird Flu—and the Purdue University Equine Hospital in Shelbyville.
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.
The event will be held on the second floor of the racetrack of Horseshoe Indianapolis. The social hour will start at 5:30 p.m. The dinner will begin at 7 p.m., followed by a brief awards ceremony at 8 p.m. Gov. Braun and Mitch Frazier will begin their “Fireside Chat” at 8:20 p.m.
The proceeds from the event will be used by Shelby County Ag Promotion to fund and coordinate community activities and programs—including the renewable scholarships that are awarded during the banquet, as well as support for local FFA chapters.
