Besides the important business of elections and other matters being attended to by the delegates today, one of the highlights of the week will take place tonight as the South Dakota Nationals Sale is held.  Activities begin at 5 pm with the pre-sale meal.  Just as with the South Dakota Futures held this week, the sale will feature a unique bidding format as bidders will be able to bid in real time and see the entire sale on the internet.  For the Futures, over 100 bidders registered to bid in this manner off-site.  Many bids were entered, with one lot ultimately sold to an internet bidder.  Tune in to www.holsteinworld.com and the All-Breeds Blog for details as soon as they become available!
