Many of our faithful West
minster customers have been
supporting us by either taking
their cattle over to the Frederick
Sale themselves or bringing it to
the Westminster location so we can
truck it to Frederick.
“WE APPRECIATE
THIS SUPPORT”
We thought you might be in
terested in getting the Frederick
Market Report until we reopen
Westminster.
If you have been by the fire site,
you can see we are getting things
in shape to reopen.
We hope to be ready by late
September. We’re looking forward
to serving you again in a new
spacious, improved building.
