Gary Craig, Marketing Manager for SASCO,
and Larry Marble, host of KKYX's "Down on
the Farm" show, chat during the 2010 San Antonio
International Farm and Ranch show.



During the ICA 35th Annual Convention & Trade
Show in June, SASCO Marketing Manager Gary
R. Craig was presented the Agri-Business Award
by State ICA President H.A. “Peanut” Gilfillian.

The
award was given for SASCO's participation
in the
“Operation New Fences,” a program created
to
help rebuild miles of fences that were destroyed
by Hurricane Ike. SASCO provided fencing material
at a reduced price so the Texas AgriLife Extension
Service could provide vouchers to nearly
100 ranchers.
