Cattlemen’s Round-Up for Rehab Launched
The Halfmanns are joined by 150 other volunteer chairmen throughout Texas and by regional chairmen Carter Behrens of San Angelo and Mike Alexander of Abilene.
Butch and Tammy Halfmann have teamed up with West Texas Rehabilitation Center as local chairmen of the 41st Annual Cattlemen’s Round-Up for Rehab – a program through which friends in the agriculture industry step forward in support of WTRC.
The message all these volunteers are delivering to livestock producers in their areas is: let’s help Rehab help all who turn to them for assistance in overcoming disabling illnesses and injuries. Ways this can be done include: donating livestock – cattle, sheep, goats or horses – to be sold at one of Rehab’s special auctions during September and October; sending a cash donation to Rehab; attending one of the special sales and joining the bidding on livestock or novelty items or notifying a local CRR chairman now of an intent to have your auction house cut a check to Rehab for proceeds from one or more animals you sell later in the year.
Bluebonnet Feeds, Lone Star Beef Processors, Federal Land Bank of Texas and First Ag Credit, Farm Credit System have committed a total of $20,000 in up-front money to launch this year’s Round-up.
