Along with lots of bulls coming back to stay with us we have had several other exciting things going on this fall. On October 16 we hosted our first Genex Member Appreciation Luncheon here at Hawkeye West. As Genex is a Cooperative it is very important that we stay close of our membership, we very much value their business and loyalty. We were thrilled that Genex board member, Bobby Robertson, from Tahlequah, OK was able to be with us.

While Bobby was here, we were also able to honor Genex Area Marketing Manager, Dwain Hould, for his 10 years of service to Genex Cooperative. Dwain manages the Genex beef marketing staff in Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota and part of Wyoming.

Here in Billings, we had a wet fall, which was very welcome after our last couple of summers! As ranchers in the area sell their calves, optimism in the beef industry is very high! We are very proud to be part of this industry and we hope that you will stop by and visit us anytime you are in the area. The bulls are always available for viewing and we would love to see you!
