Auxiliary Hosts Second Annual Fundraiser
Submit consignments by June 1 for the Full Circle Online Auction in September.

The American Angus Auxiliary is proud to present the second-annual Full Circle Online Auction, a national Angus consignment sale.

The Full Circle Online Auction is a web-based consignment market that offers Angus breeders, families and allied industry the opportunity to both sell and buy, while making a substantial contribution to help ensure the sustainability of the Auxiliary’s ongoing support of the Angus breed and its youth.

The online auction will take place September 27-28 and is hosted by www.AngusLive.com. Proceeds will support the Auxiliary’s mission, including breed promotion, beef education, and youth development through programs, awards and scholarships.

The Auxiliary is currently seeking a wide variety of items with a fair market value in excess of $100. Auction categories include Angus memorabilia/collectibles, games/toys, vacation packages, home décor, cattle services, embryo/semen packages and other useful items. Consignments received by June 1 will receive 90 days of advertising including an ad in the Angus Journal.

Consignors can donate 100% to the Auxiliary or can choose to receive 50% of the gross revenue their lots generate, as well as recognition in the sale promotion to be launched at the National Junior Angus Show (NJAS) and on the online site throughout July, August and September. Last year’s event raised more than $11,000. The Auxiliary invites you to be a part of this exciting event!
