Hereford Cattle Society Show and Dinner

7TH AND 8TH OCTOBER 2011

Nordic Star is proud to be linked with the Hereford Cattle Society. Nordic Star donate 5p to the Hereford Cattle Society for every tag bought from them if you’re a member of the society, so as a farmer by buying the quality cattle tags from Nordic Star not only are you receiving a high quality product you are also giving something back to your society.

Due to this connection Nordic Star sponsored the recent Hereford Cattle Society Annual Dinner and Show Sale held at the magnificent new Hereford Auction Mart on the 7th and 8th of October 2011.

The meal was held at the Three Counties Hotel and was an enjoyable evening with some presentations and speeches at the end of the meal.

Show and Sale day was on Saturday 8th October. There were some fine cattle there and it was a tough job for the judge in all the classes.

The Grand and Junior Male Champion went to 19 moth old Solpoll 1 Geronimo, bred by J. & W. McMordie, Co. Down, Northern  Ireland. Please see picture.

The show was a success and I handed out a lot of sample bags to the farmers and it was a brilliant opportunity for me to be able to explain to the Hereford Society members what Nordic Star gives back to the society.

I took my partner with me to the whole event and he thoroughly enjoyed himself, so we are both looking forward to being part of the event again next year.
