Location Sponsor:


The Agribusiness & Bioscience Committee, co-chaired by Shanda Nichols, The Bank of Missouri and Jason Mott, MFA Incorporated, would like to invite you to the 64th Annual Columbia Chamber of Commerce Agricultural Recognition Banquet.

Columbia businesses have the opportunity to host a table ($350) for four of their employees to enjoy dinner with four attendees of the Boone County agricultural community. The evening consists of fellowship and networking as well as the presentation of the $1,000 Don Day Agribusiness & Bioscience Scholarship to a Boone County high school senior, recognition of the 2024 Agriculturalist of the Year, and presenting the 2024 Friend of Youth award.

We hope that you will join us for this 64-year tradition between the Chamber of Commerce and the agriculture community of Boone County. If you are interested in sponsoring a table or if you would like more information, please contact Director of Membership Engagement Jamie Martin.
