Register for the SEDA Awards Banquet

Celebrate your accomplishments with SEDA!

Saturday, February 1 at Fleur de Lis Event Center. Doors open at 5:00PM, program begins at 5:30PM. SHARP. We’re planning a Westward Ho(down)! theme and appropriate attire is highly encouraged. We’ll have a DJ, so plan on dancing. Bring the family or the farm: it’s more than just an awards banquet – it’s an opportunity to socialize, have some fun, and celebrate the accomplishments of all our members.

Tickets must be purchased by January 15, 2025 as we have to get a head count to the venue. We will attempt to seat you with your selected group if indicated, but we cannot guarantee it.
