Welcome to the sale page for the 5th annual Genetic Impact Ram & Ewe Sale! The IMPACT Breeders group is comprised of ourselves, Patric & Lorri Lyster; Rod & Tracy Jordan of Jordan Livestock; Chris Arndt & Stephanie Galliford of Sheep Wrangler Farms; and Darrel & Wendy Ashbacher of First Knight Hampshires/Rose Glen Suffolks.

This year's guest consignors are Veteran Colony and Morinville Colony.

Change is inevitable, and it is very often a good thing. Though we are sorry to leave our Westlock location, this was due to circumstances beyond our control. With that, we are pleased to announce our NEW LOCATION!

**Stettler Auction Mart would like all online bidders to register by 5:00 pm on Friday Aug. 7th. Please do your best to accomodate them!

GENETIC IMPACT SALE VIEWING: Friday from 1:00 pm to 9:00 pm, Saturday from 10:00 am to just before the sale.
ONLINE BIDDING: stettlerauction.ab.ca, sign up by Friday 5:00 pm if at all possible, and then sign in on Saturday to watch and bid!

As much as we would love a HUGE crowd, please try to flow through the auction barn while adhering to physical distancing guidelines, so everybody doesn't try to crowd in at the same time. People are coming from out-of-province, and from the north and the south and everywhere in between, but remember that after viewing, only one family member needs to actually be present to bid.
Great news that the Covid-19 numbers in Stettler County have plummeted! Let's keep it that way!

If you have any inquiries about any of the animals listed here, please feel free to contact us. We can forward your inquiry to the consignor for follow-up.

Many thanks for the previous years' support of Peavey Mart and X-Treme Power Products of Westlock, Westlock Veterinary Center has sponsored the free donuts, and free McCafe coffee has been available all four years. Also thanks to VJV Westlock for supplying the bedding. We will miss our Westlock regulars! Special thanks to the Westlock Tractor Museum for the use of the auction stand and bleachers. Biggest special thanks of all to the Grimmeyer family of Sheep Lake Suffolks. We could not have done the previous four sales without you! :-)

*NOTE* If you are buying through an order buyer or online, please contact us for help arranging transport. coyoteacres@gmail.com or call/text 403-741-8597. There are trailers going to the Barrhead area and the Peace country. Other areas may be arranged as well, it looks very much like a southern Alberta load will be arranged, possible meeting point could be Fort McLeod or Lethbridge.

Consignors are also happy to take their sheep back home for buyers to pick up on-farm (please arrange pickup as quickly as possible after the sale).

For order buying and transport for bidders in Saskatchewan and Manitoba, please contact Daniel Bartlett (306-482-7808) or Pamela Bartlett (306-482-8381), they are happy to order buy and can haul back through Saskatchewan down to southeastern SK.

A note about COVID-19:

Please let's all do our best to follow the current guidelines. It only requires one person per farm to actually attend the sale. Remember we have order buyers willing to buy for you, and you can bid online, even out in the parking lot watching on your cell phone or a laptop. Physical distancing will still be in effect, and if we have to wear masks, we can do that too! The Impact Breeders Group will do whatever is necessary to make this sale as good as or even better than the previous four, and if we all work together, COVID-19 won't stop us!
