It’s been a very busy spring and summer around Schaeffer
Show Cattle this year and we quickly find ourselves spending long hours and
late nights in the show barn preparing fifty-two calves for the 2015
Schaeffer/Tice Pasture Sale. We’ve already put a lot of thought into this years
set and we’re excited to offer them to you!
Pictures have gone up on the Schaeffer Show Cattle webpage (
www.schaeffersimmentals). You can
find information under the ‘For Sale’ tab.
We will be posting the remaining pictures and
videos on all cattle on the website in the next few weeks. Bids close this year
at 6:00 pm Sunday, September 13
th. We will then phone bid them off
starting with the highest bid on the bid board. We will post once daily updates
of the bid board through the blog. As it gets closer to September 13
th
we will update more than once a day.
Our barn is open and cattle are available for viewing. If
you should have any questions, would like to discuss the cattle further, or
need to make arrangements for viewing the cattle please feel free to contact
Tim Schaeffer or Kyle Lemmon.
We’ve come off one of the best years we could imagine in the
show ring and we have our customers to thank. We have really enjoyed our
customer families that have become such close friends. We would like to thank
you for believing in our program each year and the hard work that you put into
your investments.
We would like to take the time to say how much we appreciate
our parents. They have supported us from the beginning and we have them to
thank for our success.
We would also like to take the time to introduce some new and
reintroduce some old faces at Schaeffer Show Cattle. When you come see the set
we have to offer this year you’ll understand how much time this group of people
have put into the cattle. We cannot thank them enough for all the work they
have already put into this operation. These people have become part of our close-knit
family and we appreciate their efforts at Schaeffer Show Cattle.
