With the help of som very generous donations made by our very own breeders and sponsors, Generation Angus managed to raise an impressive $10,800 in an Auction during the Angus Association dinner in Palmerston North this month. With the very persuasive Bruce Orr running the Auction as well as our young Angus members spread around the audience offering 'encouragement' everyone got really into it and there were a lot of laughs. Generation Angus would like to sincerely thank those who put up lot items for the Auction and those who paid the generous prices for them.

Angus certainly stole the show in this year’s Queen of Hearts Heifer Sale, one of the newer yet hugely popular initiatives within the Beef Expo programme.

Chris and Karren Biddles from Northland have been named Grand Champions once again in the 2013 Beef + Lamb New Zealand Steak of Origin competition.

The Annual Angus dinner was, as always, a brilliant evening of good company and laugther. Despite tickets sales looking gloomy at the beginning of last week it ended up being a full house and Guy Sargent and his team at Aberdeem put on a beautiful meal as per usual.
