On behalf of the Indiana Beef Cattle Association, I want to thank each of the junior exhibitors, parents, attendees, sale consignors and buyers, tradeshow vendors, IBCA volunteers and our great IBCA staff for an outstanding 2011 Hoosier Beef Congress. The food drive held in conjunction with HBC gathered about 1,500 lbs. of donated food items for Gleaners Food Bank. The food drive drawing for the dolly box and blower sponsored by Sullivan Show Supply was won by Kim Kiger of Thorntown. In addition, IBCA will make a donation to Gleaners Food Bank of fresh frozen beef worth almost $4000.00 as a result of the Breeder’s World stall auction.
Once again, thanks to everyone who participated and helped to sponsor Hoosier Beef Congress. There are far too many individuals and companies to name here, but without their support, knowledge and assistance, the Hoosier Beef Congress would not be the event it is. We look forward to seeing you in the barns at the various shows and sales in 2012, and we'll look forward to returning to the Indiana State Fairgrounds for the 26th Hoosier Beef Congress next year. Please click on "2011 Show Results" to view all the results from this year's Congress.
Have a very Merry Christmas, Happy Holiday and Happy New Year.
Joe Moore
Executive Vice President
