“The cows are second to the people.” - Norm Nabholz

In his opening comments to the Regancrest Command Performance V Sale, Norm hit the nail on the head. If you think the cows are impressive when you visit Regancrest and check out their sale line-up, than you’ll be doubly delighted by the sincerity and hard work of the Regan Family. (See their picture in the blog posted on 5/4.)

They are what made the sale and it was the people who helped and attended the sale that showed their appreciation. Here are some candids from the day!
