With that being said, we will be continuing Dan’s legacy by keeping both livestock auctions running as normal. Monday, August 22nd, 2022, will be our first sale at Algona Livestock & Friday, August 26th, 2022 will be at Gowrie Livestock Auction.  We will be receiving livestock Sunday, August 21st from 3-8 pm in Algona and Jim Fevold will be receiving livestock in Gowrie on Thursday, August 25th from 1:00 PM – 5:30 PM. If you have any questions or would like to talk about your livestock, give Pat a call at 515-351-8983.  We will also keep Dan’s phone number; this phone number is 515-351-0807.  From the bottom of our families’ hearts, we would love to express our sincere appreciation for the outpouring of respect for Dad.  It means more to our family than we can express in words but Thank You.   Darla, Alicia, Zach, Sarah, Pat, Meredith, & Amber   Algona Livestock                                      Gowrie Livestock Barn Phone – 515-295-7273                 Barn Phone – 515-352-3115 Toll Free – 1-800-747-0035
