FLOYD COUNTY – Wendell Sollis and the Sidekicks All Star Band will host the Sixth Annual Country Christmas Ball Saturday, Dec. 5 at the Floyd County Friends Unity Center in Muncy, Texas.
The musical night will be dedicated to raising money for the volunteer fire departments of Lockney and Floydada. Last year, with the help of many individual businesses and sponsors, the band was able to raise $10,000 for each fire department.
This year, the event will start at 6 p.m. with a catered meal furnished by River Smith’s, followed by three hours of music by the twelve-piece band.
Western swing, big band, Cajun, country classics, and Christmas hits will be enjoyed by those who want to dance or others who want to sit and listen. There will be a complimentary coffee bar, silent and live auctions, and vendors for Christmas shopping.
Tickets are $40 for individuals and $400 for a reserved table of eight. Call Dustee Sollis at 806-983-6228 for information on sponsorship or to get tickets. Tickets are also available at D&J Gin in Lockney and Payne Pharmacy in Floydada.
