Farm City Week

Dolores Mayor V.T. Boyd proclaims Nov. 21 through Nov. 27 Farm City Week in the town of Dolores.

The designation was started in 1955 to promote better understanding between the rural and urban segments of society.

The Southwest Cowbelles will undertake this week to better acquaint the townspeople in the area with farm and ranch life.
