The 2018 Mule Day Champion Auctioneer Contest is quickly approaching. Competing in the competition on Friday, April 6th will be Tennessee auctioneer Shane McCarrell.
Dating back 170 years, Mule Day is an annual event which takes place in Columbia, Tennessee. In the beginning it would occur on the first Monday in May. It was just a one day event including a mule market. With Maury County being big in the mule industry more and more people would attend. Eventually it became a four day celebration. The event had its first parade in 1934 thanks to Thomas Marion Brown.
In fact some exciting things to do and take in at the Mule Day festival include: crafts; flea market; horse show; mule-driving contest. You will even find the Liar’s Contest. An interesting competition for story-telling. To keep the belly full there is barbecue and sweet treats.
As a matter of fact, you will even find an auctioneering contest at the festival. The Mule Day Champion Auctioneer Contest. Up for grabs is a Championship Belt Buckle. From the auction block competitors don their skills. Grabbing and holding the attention of the crowd with their auction chants. The competition also helps out the Columbia Breakfast Rotary Club. This club gives back to the community by means of funding and college scholarships.
Some of the past champions are Past Champions: Junior Staggs 2017, Mike McAlister 2016, David Whitaker 2015, Trey Morris 2014, Jacob Massey 2013 and Justin Ochs 2012.
Indeed plan to attend this year’s auctioneering contest as Tennessee Auctioneer Shane McCarrell will be competing. Shane is a director on the board for the Tennessee Auctioneers Association. He is also a Veteran who owns Middle Tennessee auction house in Clarksville, TN. Some of the items this auction house offers are unique and collector items. Visit the Tennessee Livestock Producers Sale Barn on Friday, April 6th at 9:00am and cheer on Auctioneer Shane McCarrell.
