Gary Vance
Faith Livestock Market
Today was another great day in the Dakotas! Faith Livestock had its Monday cattle and sheep sale. Scott and Gary Vance were kind enough to give me some time to speak from the auction block. It was a good opportunity to give an update on USCA’s activities in Washington, D.C. Auctioneers Doug Dietterle and Seth Weishaar were auctioneering at this market too—you know I really need to figure out a way to “pickup” pool with these guys to the sale barns!
In the audience, I had a good time catching up with several folks including Eddie Miller, Chase Adams, and Tom Miller. Again the “rough” crowds who attend these auctions makes a guy glad he always does this run a couple times a year! In all seriousness, I can’t say enough good things about the folks here in the Dakotas. USCA is lucky to have their support and will work hard to keep it!
Visits to North and South Dakota – join me!
Today I am headed to Minot, North Dakota for the State Fair.
Tomorrow (Wednesday, July 29), USCA Director Danni Beer and I will be at the Lemmon, South Dakota livestock market for their weekly cattle sale.
Thursday sends Pat Becker, Allen Lund, and I to the Mobridge, South Dakota livestock market for their weekly cattle sale.
Friday, I plan to see my good friend and livestock market manager Justin Tupper at the St. Onge Livestock Market for their weekly cattle sale.
Topping off the Dakotas tour will be a stop at the Faith Livestock Market, where I will get to see a good family of livestock market operators: Gary and Scott Vance.
Each one of these stops will provide opportunities to meet new ranchers, see old friends, and get folks up to speed on the latest happenings in Washington, D.C. If you are around any of these locations this week, please stop by!
