34th Annual Blue River Gang Sale - Sunday, February 7th
Thank you from the Blue River Gang! The 34th Annual Blue River Gang Sale was held on Sunday Feb 7th, 2016 at the Ruth Simmental Sale Facility near Rising City, NE. The Winter storm earlier in the week sure left a blanket of snow to add to the scenery and the breeders of this sale worked hard to make sure the cattle were ready for their customers. Very large crowd filled the facility and actively selected the sale offering to improve their herd genetics. The breeders consisting of the Blue River Gang include Ruth Simmentals, Makovicka Simmental, Gocke Cattle and Mach Simmentals.
