GENETICS ON ICE BENEFIT AUCTION
This year , the National Junior Limousin Show and Congress in Tulsa , OK , promises to surpass even the high points of past experiences .
As you can see from the program , this year ’ s benefit auction is filled with genetic opportunities and many other interesting items , thanks to the generosity of the many contributors . You will have the opportunity to choose from :
• some of the most popular and useful sires and dams in the breed today
• preferred position pages in the National Junior Limousin souvenir program to advertise your ranch or program
• award sponsorships
• unique art
• genetic packages
• fishing trips
This “ Genetics On Ice ” benefit auction gives you the opportunity to help yourself and your program while supporting one of the breed ’ s major events of the year .
The benefit auction , as we know it today , was started in 1984 by American Cattle Services to fund the first All-American Limousin Futurity in the summer of 1985 in Springfield , Missouri , which was the first time the National Junior Heifer Show was held in conjunction with an open Limousin show . This first auction was held at the American Royal in Kansas City , Missouri , with assistance from the Kansas and Missouri Limousin Breeders Associations . Most items offered were frozen semen and pregnant recipients , thus the auction was named “ Genetics On Ice ” from the very beginning .

Thank You for Your Support
The fundraiser was initially one where the donor received 50 percent of the revenue and the AALF received 50 percent . After the second such auction in Kansas City in 1985 , Dr . Greg Martin , NALF Executive Vice President , and Ken Holloway , principal partner of American Cattle Services , thought it would be appropriate to hold the benefit auction in Denver at the NALF banquet and split the proceeds between NALJA and AALF . The “ Genetics On Ice ” auction has enjoyed a 37-year run with much success thanks in no small part to the generosity of those who attended , contributed and purchased .
Totals indicate some $ 1.75 million has been raised from Limousin breed promotion at the “ Genetics On Ice ” auction . A special thanks to all involved !
All semen and embryos will be released for shipment upon payment , unless otherwise noted . Shipment will be at the buyer ’ s expense . Semen and embryos are not necessarily exportable outside the United States .
