Sale Committee Starts Planning for the 2014 Spring Sale

T

he Michigan Holstein Association sale committee recently held its second meeting in as many weeks via conference call. Last year we got a late start on planning for the spring sale and things got rather rushed in the weeks leading up to the sale. This year we are excited to get the ball rolling earlier in hopes to build an even better sale. When the bills were all paid following the 2013 sale we made some money for the association but the feeling was, we could have done better. Our goal last year was to get started on building the spring sale up to a nationally renowned sale by the time that the national Holstein convention is held in Michigan in 2018. The sale committee felt that last year’s sale had the right kind of cattle with the right kind of pedigrees but fell a little short on getting the consignors the best prices for their consignments. Many thanks need to go out to the MHA members who donated time and resources to the sale. Our fitter, Craig Martin, did a great job getting the cattle ready to go through the sale ring and the MSU Dairy Club did a great job of doing the hard work involved with putting on a sale in the week prior to the sale. The 2014 Spring Foundation Sale will be set up about same as last year’s sale and hopefully we will improve on a few things and get more buyers to the sale and to make our consignors happy to consign to the sale in the future; 2018 will be here before we know it. So, keep in mind that March is not that far off and we will be looking for some great consignments for the 2014 MHA Spring Foundation Sale. Please feel free to contact Ike Hunt 989-307-0987 or Moss McCauley 616446-2670 with any questions regarding the sale. Save the date, that’s March 21, 2014, at the MSU Pavilion. See you there! Ike Hunt, MHA Sale Chairman MICH
