55th Anniversary Customer Appreciation Day

Erstellt am: von Longhorn

Celebrating the 55th year of raising Texas Longhorn cattle at Dickinson Cattle Co was a joyous event with the annual Customer Appreciation Day, near Barnesville, Ohio. The goal is to invite all our great customers, at a beautiful time of year at the ranch, demonstrations of profitable procedures used at DCC, wonderful and sometimes wild and crazy great food, photos of everything, celebrity Longhorn lovers from all over, pasture bus tours, kids running everywhere, and the star of the event is the great Texas Longhorn breed.

Now, if you missed this event, it is sad that you went to a junior Antifa recruiting meeting, or a raw sushi eating contest, or a training session for bad husbands, a Ukrainian weapon fundraiser, or just forgot. It was your loss. To help you feel really depressed for missing out, here are some photos of the fun and educational day. Don't make the same mistake to miss out next year.

Creating quick excitement, Ron and Jen Fuller arrived from Tennessee under these loud propellers. Every kid and most adults were envious of this beautiful transportation. Unfortunately, no room to load purchased cattle and take home -- bummer.

Cars and cattle trailers were parked for a quarter mile both ways on the sides of Muskrat Road. It was a beautiful day in Ohio, about 68 degrees with fall leaves starting to turn rich colors.

Gary Lake of Silverado Ranch in Colorado was DCC foreman for 16 years. He presented a "mostly factual" history of the Dickinson family while developing the famous Texas Longhorn genetics from 1979 to 1995 before DCC moved the headquarters to Ohio.

For some really old history -- Darol and Linda Dickinson started this whole effort in 1967 by purchasing 6 Texas Longhorn cows and a bull. Things happen.... not always fast.

A sort-of, different guest speaker was Tommy Squires of Allen's Coin of Columbus. They are the largest outlet for silver and gold in Ohio. Many are sick of the reducing paper dollar value caused during the Biden reign and wish to convert dollars to metal.

The key to a successful event is family and cast members all working together. What a great day with wonderful Ohio weather, and all of the above, right on schedule. If guests felt special, it is a fact --- they were.
