The Crosbyton Chamber of Commerce is sponsoring the 2nd annual Whirligig Weekend. We have made some changes! Whirligig Weekend will be at the Pioneer Ranch and Farm Museum on 211 East Aspen Street in Crosbyton. The Whirligig Contest will be on Saturday, September 19, 2015 at the west end of the gold barn where the museum displays are located. The event is held in conjunction with “Junk in the Truck Vintage Market”. We will still have the Whirligig, Wind Chime, and Wind Whimsy contests, but this year we are having a “Classy, Trashy Fashion Show”. Don’t miss this fun event, in fact, do more than just visit the displays and fashion show, be a part of it. Make your own Whirligig, Wind Chime or Wind Whimsy out of re-used, re-cycled, or re-purposed items. Same goes for the fashions. See you there.
Yee Haw. . . We’re Having a Chamber Round-up
The Crosbyton Chamber of Commerce is rounding up folks to be a part of the Chamber. Saunter on over to the First Baptist Fellowship Center to the west door on Durham Street on Thursday, September 10 for a man-size breakfast at 7:00 a.m. Bill and Nette Mammaro are making breakfast pizzas, the rest of the crew will fill in with juice, fruit, coffee, and sweet rolls. We’ll fill you up with breakfast and fill you in on what the Chamber is doing for Crosbyton. If you are already a Chamber member, come on over and bring a friend. We’re heading for a great Round-up!
And the Winner is …
Crosbyton Police Chief, John Wilson, was the winner of the Crosbyton Chief Golf Cart raffled by the Crosbyton Lions and the Crosbyton Chamber of Commerce. When first told about the win, Chief Wilson seemed less than excited, but not so for his wife Kara who knew instantly what she wanted to do with the little cutey. Don’t expect to see the cart zooming around the streets of Crosbyton though. Kara will use the cart on their 10 acres to get around. Go girl.
The Crosbyton Lions Club will use their profits to help the Cemetery Association. The Chamber will use their profits to hold the Whirligi Weekend that has been changed to September 19, 2015.
Crosby County Fuel Association is the Chamber Business of the Month

Manager Wayne McHam and his crew are always ready to lend a hand customers. For that reason the Crosbyton Chamber of Commerce selected the cooperatives as their July Business of the Month.
The agriculture based business provides services to farmers throughout Crosby County. But the employers provide essential services to those who live in Crosbyton too. The friendly staff will help you gas up your car, repair flat tires, and provides these services throughout the county.

Let this great business know how much you appreciate the work of the employees and board at Crosby County Fuel Association.
Happy Birthday, America
The Crosbyton 4th of July Celebration was a great success! It kicked off with a Parade and Show and Shine car show and ended with fireworks. A great day to talk with people, grab some food and enjoy our freedom. The Chamber sold raffle tickets for the purple and gold Crosbyton Chiefs Golf Cart. Don’t forget that the drawing will take place on August 1 at the Crosbyton Homecoming Jubilee. The raffle is a collaboration between the Crosbyton Chamber of Commerce and the Crosbyton Lions Club. The Lions Club profits will go to the Crosbyton Cemetery Association. The Chamber of Commerce profits will go to the Crosbyton Community Fund for Chamber projects. Tickets are $25.00 and are available at the Chamber of Commerce office at 126 S. Berkshire in Crosbyton.
