Steerplanet,
Just wanted to let everyone know about a great cattle family who could use a helping hand.  I'm going to list a couple of the items in the benefit on the classifieds page, but wanted to let everyone know about the cause.     http://members.boardhost.com/druckenmillers
Bode and Brystol Druckenmiller of Indianola, Iowa are wonderful boys with loving, caring parents and for this they are certainly lucky. Luck doesn't exactly come to mind when I think about these awesome little guys, however, and for good reason. Both are hemophiliacs with Factor 8 deficiencies and Brystol was also born with a complex heart defect requiring multiple additional cardiac surgeries. Each has has multiple recurrent hospitalizations over essentially their entire lives, yet today they are strong, bright young boys that I hope the cattle community will see fit to help. The boys' father Jeff Druckenmiller was raised in Fremont, OH while their mother was from the Fremont here in Iowa. Both were active in the cattle industry with Ashley showing many a champion across the state of Iowa. Today, Jeff works as a diesel mechanic when the boys are healthy enough to allow, Ashley works at a charity here in Indianola called Family Rewards, also working double shifts when she can at the local sportsbar Sports Page. I've seen many people labelled as "hero" over the last few years and would put Ashley up next to any of them.

I dont know what everyone else has heard but I heard that walks alone semen is really hard to get and this auction has it. Also  (welcome) Alan.

From what I have been told the Sooner Embryos offered by Alan should be a very good mating!  Alan I commend everyone for organizing this fundraiser!

Below is a link to Alan's site with more information on the benefit as well as info on the Sooner Embryos that he is Auctioning off for this benefit!

If you don't  have interest in the items for sale but would like to donate a sale item to the auction give Alan or myself a PM(I will give him a call for you)!  I am sure more sale item donations would be welcome!

Lets all join in and help this family any way we can. If a disaster struck our family at this time,it would be devastating. We,like most folks are limited in how we can help,but if you just bid on something ,it helps in the long run. I realize this benefit is similar as going to an estate auction,but these are kids we are helping.Adam White Cattle Co./TMJ Show cattle have teamed up to try and purchase the WALK'S ALONE semen. We may not get it bought,but who cares? We challenge each and every one of our Steer Planet friends[and enemies..ha ha] to help these little fellers in any way we can........
