Northern Lights Sale 2012

2011 Sale - The concept of an annual sale was first suggested following the success of the 2007 Northern Lights Sale and Jerseys...light years ahead three day program. Conducted by the Northern District Jersey Breeders Club as part of the Australian Jersey Breeders Society, Victorian Branch, Annual General Meeting agenda in May 2007, the program was hailed as a great success by all. Encouraged by discussion with neighbouring clubs later the same year, it was decided to conduct a sale in the north of Victoria on an annual basis. Promotion of the jersey breed and providing the opportunity for breeders to come together and highlight the benef its of the jersey breed to the dairy industry in general, was a driving factor in the decision. The Northern District Jersey Breeders Clubs look forward to the 2012 offering of elite jersey pedigrees and the support of the wider dairy community. With in milk and young stock, and 3 embryo packages, the sale is set to go!

President's Message...

On behalf of the NDJBC I would extend an invitation to all Jersey enthusiast’s to attend the 6th Annual “Northern Lights Sale”, held on April 27th in the sale barn at the world famous Jugiong Jerseys, Curr Rd Girgarre. Come and stay the weekend in the country where all the rivers run. Enjoy great jersey fellowship at Northern Lights, stay and socialise with us. We invite all to stay after the sale and enjoy a social evening, beginning with wine and cheese tasting. After a pleasant weekend continue on to the Bluechip sale on Monday.

We are certain that the LEGACY WILL CONTINUE to be built, as 50 lots go under the hammer unreserved. There will be show champions and bull mothers amongst them, all steeped in type and vaccinated with milk, cattle that will give years of enjoyment and profitability to their purchasers. Over half the lots will be in milk ready to begin to pay the bills, we at Northern Lights are thankful for the support of Jersey breeders in consigning their best. We thank the vendors for their support and loyalty to the legacy of Northern lights.

On behalf of the NDJBC, I wish to thank all our valued sponsors. We at NDJBC appreciate your support which allows us to run one of the truly high profile multi-vendor Jersey sales in the Australian dairy industry. I urge all Jersey breeders to take the time to view sponsors adverts in this catalogue and talk to them, in fact I encourage you to do business with them.

The NDJBC wish to thank the Nicholson family for the use of their facilities, it is really much appreciated and we especially acknowledge the huge contribution of Pat, our Sale Manager.
