August is roundup time for the Boys Ranch of West Texas near San Angelo. Donated live stock will be accepted and sold without charges by the auction firm to support 55 to 60 boys needing housing food and training. Last year a special sale at Producers Livestock Auction yielded several thousand dollars for the ranch.
Proceeds of the sale will be in sand dollars and August roundups span West Texas with 14 leading auction firms assisting.
