The Septic Services Gazette

Who doesn’t like a tractor pull? How about an antique tractor pull? Septic Services will be sponsoring the event for another year. This annual event is hosted by the Union FFA Alumni and will be held at the fairgrounds in Union. Tractors eligible to participate are 1959 models and older. Trophies will be awarded to each class.

Once again, Septic Services was one of the proud sponsors at the Franklin County Fair that took place last week at the Union Fairgrounds. We always like to support great family and community events in the area. This year we chose to sponsor the fair’s Craig Morgan concert event on Saturday with attendee wristbands. If you attended that concert event you may have noticed that the blue wristband you received included a valuable coupon. This is our way of showing thanks to you for supporting the Fair. So to use the coupon, just present your wristband to us when you receive your service. You’ll receive the discount shown on the wristband on one of the services that we offer.
