Winter Livestock to help raise monies for fire-impacted ranchers

Feeders are looking for opportunities to add capacity, if it is feasible. This photo was taken during a King of the Ring competition several years ago at Winter Livestock, Dodge City, Kansas. (Journal photo by Dave Bergmeier.)

Winter Livestock, Dodge City, Kansas, is having a Rollover Auction to benefit ranchers affected by the Ranger Road and Stevens fires.

The benefit is at 12:30 p.m. Feb. 25.

Producers in the hardest-hit areas have suffered devastating losses — fences, livestock, and grazing ground, Winter Livestock reported. Rebuilding will take time and support.

Winter Livestock is donating an animal, with 100% of proceeds going directly to impacted farmers and ranchers.

People can bid in person, by phone or online via CattleUSA.com. On sale day, people can call the office at 620-225-4159, Ryan at 620-393-5439 or Joe at 6200-2255-4401.

Also, other donations may be dropped off on or before sale day.
