This was the first sale ever for Cedar Creek Cattle Company and it was held only about 22 months after moving to Tennessee from South Carolina. The weather was excellent for an early fall sale in the mountains of Tennessee. The crowd was in excess of 300 people and cattle sold into seven states. The cattle had a heavy influence of Wehrmann blood along with strong growth genetics. All in all, this was a very positive outing especially for the first sale. Most of the lots were single animals as only a hand full of pairs sold.
