cateonbehalfofRep.Doug LaMalfa. "It's very special to me to recognize the bull sale's 75th anniversary because my wife, Marilyn, was a part of it when she was Miss Tehama County," Nielsen said. "Also be- cause the bull sale is very famous. I would say it's world famous and helped put Red Bluff on the map. The bloodlines and genet- ics of bulls sold here have improved herds worldwide. They are a testimony to our cattlemen and cattle- women." Gallagher said it was nice to be in a place where the air was clean and com- mon sense was strong and an honor to be a part of cel- ebrating a legendary event. The resolution he read rec- ognized the tireless efforts of all involved in putting on the event. It acknowl- edged that the organiz- ers had raised $300,000 for different causes impor- tant to ranchers and farm- ers as well as local youth since 1990. The evening ended with a slide show of pictures over the years including some showing the Pauline Davis Pavilion before it was enclosed, Roy Carmi- chael who was a buyer for 50 years, Carl Garrison the first Tehama County Cat- tleman of the Year and the year Tennessee Ernie Ford was a guest auctioneer. Thecelebration continues The Red Bluff Bull & Gelding Sale will continue its celebration with activ- ities today through Satur- day. While it was 75 years ago the event began sell- ing top bulls, the gelding sale was not added until 25 years later, according to a press release issued late Tuesday. The stock dog sale was added in 1980. A Trade Show and a Western Art Show have joined over the years. "The Red Bluff Bull Sale committee has put together a really unique event in several areas," Ow- ens said. "Without a doubt, this is the largest livestock event of it's kind west of the Rockies. One big reason for the popularity and longev- ity of this sale is that the quality of animals sold is always at the top. We want to make sure that a Red Bluff animal is one that will work for the producer. It is also a very social time will old friends get together, as they have for three-quar- ters of a century." The public is invite to come check out the trade show, which is open daily through Saturday. The Bull Sale Arena, a large tent and a huge outdoor space offer shopping. Attendees have the opportunity to explore new products including handmade saddles, jew- elry, western furniture and stock trailers. In conjunction with the trade show is a Western Art Show and sale presented by Western Horseman Maga- zine. The show and auction is sure to draw high traf- fic and interested buyers. Pieces entered are judged and winners are crowned. All pieces are priced for sale. Stock dogs have proven to be a very popular attrac- tion. The dogs will be in- side the Pauline Davis Pa- vilion at 7 tonight and the sale of 20 stock dogs is set for Friday at 3:30 p.m. Some 100 geldings will be shown today and Fri- day with the sale to start at 5:30 p.m. Friday. The sale, one of the most pop- ular events, draws a crowd of more than 2,000 for the auction, the release said. Saturday is when 400 bulls will go up for sale about 9:30 a.m. in the Pauline Da- vis Pavilion. In addition there is a sale of steers and feeder heifers, from several West- ern states, and a large spe- cial breeding stock section featuring bred cows, bred heifers and pairs. This is presented by Elanco held in conjunction with West- ern Video Market in Cot- tonwood. Capping the events on Saturday night is a bull rid- ing invitational known as the Cinch Jeans Red Bluff Buckin' Best. National Fi- nals Rodeo bucking bull producer Don Kish, of Red Bluff, will showcase some of the toughest, meanest bucking bulls in his string. The event sells out every year. "We invite everyone to come see what it is all about," Owens said. "You don't have to be a rancher or a cowboy. There is some- thing for everyone who loves the Western way."
