Lamoni, Iowa –Southern Iowa BioEnergy, LLC held a successful kick-off event on June 21, 2006, beginning their equity drive to build a 30 million gallon per year biodiesel plant, expected to be located near Lamoni.

Southern Iowa BioEnergy (SIBE) Board Chairman Bill Higdon introduced the project to more than 400 guests at the event held on the campus on Graceland University. “We are thrilled with the reception our project received,” Higdon stated. “Not only did we have hundreds of potential investors attend, we were also honored to have the support of State Senator Jeff Angelo, State Representative Mike Reasoner, Iowa Renewable Fuels Association Managing Director Lucy Norton, and Iowa Soybean Association Board Member Cliff Mulder.”

Following the kick-off ceremony and lunch provided by SIBE, the first investor information meeting was held at the same location.
