I understand you received a card in the mail that is fairly misleading. We are the new owners of Durant Stockyards as of March 1, 2013. The previous tenants were leasing the market and unable to complete the purchase. Billy and Ann Perrin were the owners at that time, they contacted us to purchase the market, and we did so. We are not leasing the market, nor is the market closing. We had our first sale under new ownership yesterday, March 7, 2013 and the market was high with 397 head being sold. We had buyers come in that haven't been to Durant for years and with our buying power and the quality cattle sold it was an excellent sale.
