New “World Auctioneer Contest” Winner Named
An Oregon man, Trent Stewart, was crowned the ”2007 World Livestock Auctioneer Champion” in Springfield this last Saturday.
Stewart had gained the title at the 44th annual contest at the Springfield Livestock Marketing Center.
The “Reserve World Champion” was awarded to Ty Thompson of Billings Montana, and Tom Frey of Creston Iowa had the honor of being the “World Champion Runner Up”.
Curious as to what winning the World Auctioneer Contest will get you? $5,000 and one-year use of a 2007 Chevrolet Silverado Extended Cab LT. Not too bad, huh? You’d better start practicing!
