Page 4 - Hoiby Simmental Annual Production Sale Bulls & Heifers – Feb. 18, 2023
P. 4
We would like to dedicate our 20th Anniversary
Bullnanza Sale to our late friend and auctioneer,
Butch Haugland.
Butch and Lyndon’s relationship started many
years ago when Lyndon brought a heifer to the
State Fair for the first time. Butch came up to
Lyndon as a total stranger and out of the kind-
ness of his heart, gave him some pointers on
how to clip and offered any help. Ever since that
day, Butch became a good friend and mentor to
Lyndon in the livestock industry.
Butch had become a great family friend of ours
over the years. He was always friendly and greet-
ed everyone with a smile.
This year we wanted to do something special in
honor of Butch. We will be selling raffle tickets
for the chance to win an open heifer. All proceeds
will be going to a scholarship fund for students
in northwestern North Dakota pursuing careers in
agriculture. We decided to pick a heifer sired by a
bull purchased from Marlin LeBlanc from R Plus
Simmentals. Marlin and Butch were good friends,
so we thought it was fitting to choose this heifer.
Raffle tickets will be $25 each. If you are unable
to attend the sale and would like to buy a ticket
please call ahead of sale day.
