FRIENDS and former stock agents, drovers and buyers from across Victoria and interstate will gather at the Newmarket Saleyards on February 17 to mark the 31st anniversary of the yard's closure.
The annual event is always well attended - not only by those formerly associated with the saleyards, but also by their families.
Last year's reunion attracted about 100 people, and organisers hope this year will do the same.
It will take place from 10am-4pm at the yards on the corner of Racecourse Rd and Smithfield St.
There will be a barbecue lunch (BYO drinks).
