The National Cattlemen’s Beef Association Political Action Committee (NCBA-PAC) will once again be holding our annual Silent Auction in conjunction with NCBA’s 2015 Trade Show in San Antonio, Texas, the week of February 4-7th.  The NCBA-PAC Silent Auction has always been a major source of revenue for our PAC.  We need your help to make our auction a successful one!

Last year’s convention was attended by over 9,000 people.  Donating an item(s) to the auction not only gives you the opportunity to showcase your state, your participation will help raise the necessary funds that will enable NCBA-PAC to reach its goal of becoming a 1.25 Million Dollar PAC.  In these volatile times, it is of the utmost importance that we continue to raise the level playing field in the political arena for the cattle industry. The money raised from our annual auction will be strategically used to support those who support the interests of the cattle industry.  Investing is a strong PAC will enable us to have a powerful impact with the policymakers who ultimately make the decisions that affect our future.

Please return the attached 2015 PAC Item Donation Form For Silent Live Auction form by Monday, January 5, 2015 to ensure your item(s) are showcased in our online Auction Catalog hosted by Lowderman Auctions prior to the convention. Bidding will begin in mid-January with a continuation at the convention.  We are very excited with our new approach to increase the level participation in our convention activities this will enable NCBA-PAC to raise the revenue needed to increase our level playing field in Washington, DC. This will allow those who are unable to attend the convention to participate in the auction.  Please include a detailed description of the item(s) you are donating, with a video if possible, and your organization’s logo.   If you are planning on shipping you item(s) prior to the convention we are ask that you ship them directly to the address below:
