🐮 Thankful Thursday 🚁

CapRescue extends sincere thanks to the Woodard family from Bonox Brangus for their generous support through the 2026 BLING Sale.

A special Red Brangus female, fittingly named Charity, was offered with 100 per cent of the sale proceeds donated to CapRescue. The sale attracted strong interest and helped raise an incredible $15,395 for the service.

Thank you to Bonox Brangus, everyone who bid on Charity, and all those who promoted the sale. Support from the rural community plays an important role in helping Rescue300 remain ready to respond across Central Queensland. 🙏🏻
