Hello,
We would like to welcome all of you to the 2018 North Dakota Red Select Sale. Sharing this sale with the N.D. Simmental
Association is a great opportunity for all of us. We are excited to have new consignors this year and feel we are moving in
the right direction as a organization.

After attending the National Red Angus Convention in September, I am excited for the changes that are being imple-
mented. We have had a signifi cant change in our EPD calculations and, if you have not heard about this, you need to be in
attendance at our banquet on Friday evening to hear Ryan Boldt from the National Offi ce explain the new BOLT program.
We also welcome you to our annual meeting on Friday at 2 pm CST.

I am very thankful to the board I serve with, and for Jeff Thomas serving as our sale manager. Without their knowledge and expertise, we would
not be moving forward as an organization. A simple thanks is not enough for the time and talent Tracey Koester from Cow Camp Promotions puts
into our catalog!

God bless you all and hope to see you December 7th for our meeting and banquet, and December 8th for the sale.

Jodi Schriefer,
NDRAA President

Greetings!
On behalf of myself and the consignors I would like to welcome you to the 2018 North Dakota Red Angus Association Red
Select Sale! It has been a pleasure to be involved with the development of this year’s sale. The members of this associa-
tion are seriously committed to offer you cattle and genetics from the top of their programs. The programs presenting
this offering host some to top production and bull sales in the land so take advantage of them sharing the base of their
program with you.

Again this year the N.D. Red Angus Association and the N.D. Simmental Association are working together in sharing the
date and facilities to present both sales on the same day. This has been a very impressive venue with an overfl ow crowd for both events; which
supports the testament of how well the two breeds of cattle and breeders can work together!

The current market trends are very positive with calf prices stronger than last year. The outlook for the future is very promising. The demand for
Red Angus cattle both as breeding stock and feeder cattle is tremendously strong! The offering of this sale provides you as buyers the opportunity
to secure value-adding genetics that can advance your program signifi cantly for the future.

If you are looking for females and genetics that can produce top-end individuals for both the commercial and seedstock industries, this offering
provides a lot of opportunities for you. The open heifers in the offering have some outstanding show heifer prospects for junior programs and
the N.D. Red Angus provides an excellent opportunity for our youth with their State Fair Futurity program. These open heifers are out of top-end
females and ET programs and will develop into great cows as well.

The sale will be broadcast on DVAuction.com for those that may want to bid online. We will make available any updates and additional info on the
N.D. Red Angus Website: ndredangus.com. There will also be videos of many of the lots available on many of the individual consignor sites as
well.

I would like to thank the N.D. Red Angus Association and the consignors for the opportunity to work with them on what has become a premier
event in the region! If you have any questions regarding the offering don’t hesitate to give a call or send a note and feel free to contact any of the
consignors regarding their individual consignments. I look forward to seeing many of you in Bismarck/Mandan December 7-8, 2018!

Sincerely,
Jeff Thomas
