It is with great pride and pleasure we invite you to join the ABHA and its members at the 7th Annual National Sale. In
addition to the sale, we will host our National Show. American Black Hereford Breeders from across the nation have worked
diligently to prepare their livestock for this exciting event.
The improvement and advancement of Black Hereford genetics over the past few years has been nothing short of
remarkable. The industry acceptance of the breed has been overwhelming. Cattlemen throughout the country and the world
are benefiting from superior Black Hereford genetics and the marketing opportunities these cattle offer.
Our breed is experiencing tremendous growth and more breeders are joining the association daily. The American Black
Hereford Association is a data driven organization and we continue to enhance and advance the data available on Black
Hereford cattle. I invite you to join us on Nov. 10th for our national show and on Nov. the 11th for our National Sale.
It will be an event that will provide you with information about the American Black Hereford as well as a tremendous lineup
of cattle in the sale. Come join us and witness why Black Hereford Cattle have become one of the fastest growing breeds of
cattle in the world.
I look forward to seeing you in Sedalia.
Sincerely,
