A large part of the excellence achieved at the National Junior Limousin Show and Congress stems from support of involved Limousin breeders- support from both the heart and the wallet.

This year, the National Junior Limousin Show and Congress in Circleville, OH 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.

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 42-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. Purchaser needs to contact semen owner for release of semen and embryos.

Shipment will be at the buyer’ s expense. Semen and embryos are not necessarily exportable outside the United States.
