Lakeland Holstein club launched a new Spring Pedigree Bull Show & Sale

Held on Wednesday 17th March 2004 in Borderway Mart the sale attracted some very
classy well-bred bulls, predominately of PI breeding with some blended and a
few pure
British Friesian. There was a large crowd of serious buyers prepared to bid decent
money for the best, resulting in a most encouraging trade.
