The March Best at West sale was a great time to buy some superb Texas Longhorns. Executive VP Director, Charlie Buenger, Crawford, TX, welcomed the crowd and gave announcements. The sale began with the auctioning of the April and May Trails covers. The winning bid for April was $1,600 by Diamond D Ranch, Dawn and Darin Divinia, Red Oak, TX, and the winning bid for the May cover was $2,300 by Donnie and Marilyn Taylor, 4 T Longhorns, Lufkin, TX; Brent and Cindy Bolen, Bolen Longhorns, Lufkin, TX and Joel and Shirley Lemley, Lemley Longhorns, Blackwell, TX.
A special thank you to 4 Bar Ranch, Bill and Suzanne Torkildsen, Fayetteville, TX, for their donation lot benefiting the TLBAA. Auctioneer Brian Uptmore kept a swift pace running Longhorns through the ring, as Board Director Steven Zunker, Luling, TX, read off the pedigrees.
Once again Frank, Sue, Teresa and Gary Bowdoin, Crawford, TX, provided a delicious feast on Friday for all members to enjoy and Paul and Mari-Kathryn Braswell, Cactus Ridge Ranch, Forestburg, TX, provided the adult beverages. Make plans to attend the May 8 th Best at West Sale, we look forward to seeing you!
