Livestock Sale Committee- Enclosed Trailer Needed: 

The BCF Livestock Sale Committee is looking for an enclosed trailer.  Ideally a trailer that is 7x12’ with a good electrical and tires.  We plan to house our own tables and chairs and sound system to be used annually for the sale.  The committee has made the decision to buy own own equipment rather than rent it to suppress operating costs and make the committee more financially efficient.  If you know of a trailer for sale, have one you would like to donate, or would be willing to sponsor a trailer, please reach out to the sale committee at jrlivestocksale.bcf@gmail.com. We appreciate the great network of people in our community.
