The DeWitt County Soil & Water Conservation District’s 79th Annual Meeting & Celebration has been set for Friday, February 17, 2023, at The Georgia Jill, in Clinton.
Registration will begin at 7:30 AM, with a buffet breakfast, served at 8:00 A.M.
“The SharkFarmer” Rob Sharkey will be this year's keynote speaker. Sharkey is unwavering in his ability to directly address controversial topics, ask tough questions, and get to the heart of an issue. His authentic interview style that comes from the idea that everyone has an important story to share has resonated with hundreds of thousands of weekly global listeners. Resource Conservationist at the SWCD, Shelley Finfrock says Sharkey has a wildly successful SharkFarmer TV show on RFDTV with 6 seasons and counting and a second TV show on WTVP PBS called “A shot of Ag.” He is on SIRIUS XM Radio, where he has a daily show and “SharkFarmer Weekend Edition” on Saturdays.
A short business meeting will be held. Two persons will be elected for a two-year term as members of the Board of Directors.
There is no charge for attendance; although donations will be accepted at the door to help support the SWCD annual college scholarship fund.
Seating is limited so an RSVP is encouraged. Contact the District by phone at 217-935-2181, ext. 3, by Friday, February 10, 2023 to make reservations.
