Sale Summary

The Calf Quest Club Calf Sale 2003 saw another year of growth. There was an increase of over fifty per cent of buyer numbers distributed from the 2002 sale. Calf Quest sale managers, Kevin Johansen and Gary Reichel, enlisted the services of Mike Williams, an auctioneer from Higginsville, MO who conducts the "Sale of Champions" at the Missouri State Fair and professional ringman, Jesse Bolin. Attendance prizes were again awarded to at least a dozen in attendance.
