COVID-19 UPDATE

Due to the latest announcements regarding the Covid-19 guidelines and restrictions, the Charolais Office will remain closed until further notice. During this time we ask that you contact us by e-mail at nevan.charolais@gmail.com or accounts@charolais.ie, with any queries or concerns you may have. We will endeavour to conduct the business of the Society as close to normal as possible. Post will be picked up from the Office weekly, but we ask that this is kept to a minimum, as there may be delays. Please note that many of the companies we work with on a daily basis are closed or may have reduced their operations, this may lead to delays for the Society. We hope that you will understand these are extraordinary circumstances and we thank you for your co-operation at this difficult time.

For anyone who has entered bulls in the Shows and Sales in Tullamore Mart on Saturday the 25th April and Tuam Mart on Saturday the 2nd May, they have both been cancelled. However, online catalogues for both Sales will be available at www.charolais.ie, displaying the animal’s details and the seller’s contact information. If you wish, you can also send us in pictures of your entries and we will post them on our Social media outlets. We hope that this will be beneficial for breeders and potential customers looking for bulls. For anyone entering bulls in the Show and Sale planned for Tullamore Mart on Saturday the 23rd May, we cannot guarantee if this Sale will go ahead or not at this stage. We ask that you please enter your bulls as normal before the closing date of the 27th April. If the Sale is cancelled, we will produce an online Sale catalogue with your entries and you will not be charged.

Once again, thank you for your co-operation and stay safe.

Nevan Mc Kiernan,

Secretary, ICCS.
