Strawberry Festival Wins Awards!

PSFA delegates recently attended a convention in Corpus on July 7-10 for the TFEA (Texas Festivals and Events Association). This is an organization that we are a member of that promotes Festival and events and offers education and up to date information to assist these events.

While there, we took classes and won several awards including: Best Social Media Site, Best Event Photograph, Best Single Display Ad, Best Sponsor Solicitation Video,  Best Mascot and Best Commemorative Poster. We are pleased to share them with you!
