🙏 APPRECIATION POST! 🙏
As the sun comes down on another WDC weekend, some appreciation needs to be passed around.
🔸A huge thank you to event organisers Peter and Megan Rutherford and Aaron Booth. These 3 have worked tirelessly to make your trialling weekend the best experience possible. Without them, the trial wouldn’t have gone ahead and we thank them greatly for their efforts.
🔸Thank you to those who assisted Peter, Megan and Aaron. A shoutout to Chris Egan, Ben Gooch, John Gordon and all those who helped set up and pull down the yards. Also thank you to those who helped in the backyards, timing and scoring.
🔸Thank you to our judges! Taking the time to come and judge for long hours, in pretty ordinary weather is a commendable effort.
🔸A big thank you to our livestock donators for the weekend, Lee and Stacey Matthew’s for the challenging 1X Ewes and Stanford Poll Herefords for the exceptional cattle.
🔸A thank you to Muddle transport for getting the sheep to and from the Showgrounds all weekend along with Whites transport and Phil Nankervill carting the cattle.
🔸Our naming rights sponsor for 2025 and online sale component StockLive. Having StockLive interfaced with the sale really drove bids and interest right across the country.
🔸A massive thank you to all of our sponsors for 2025. Without their support, these local events cannot happen. We are so grateful for your support and look forward to working in the future together.
🔸Thank you to our selling agents Bowyer & Livermore Livestock for another professionally run auction and sale campaign. Incredible results right through the catalogue with the top dog selling for $20,000. The sale catalogue itself was impressive and well put together. Well done and thank you.
🔸Last but not least, thank you to all those who competed, our sale vendors, and to all those who took time to come and support the WDC. We look forward to seeing you all back in 2026.
