In 1988, discussions between Ron & Bev White of Wilangi Brahman Stud, Errol & Estelle Cole of Lapunyah Stud and Ken McCaffrey, Elders Pastoral Stud Stock Manager led to the establishment later that year, in Charters Towers, of what is now the Wilangi Invitation Brahman Sale.
In its first staging, on Friday 25th November 1988, it was named the Lapunyah Wilangi Beef Brahman Sale. To many it seemed/appeared a negative, ill-thought out and risky venture to stake a major bull sale claim in Charters Towers, which at that time, was not on the Stud cattle selling calendar and did not even have a regular weekly cattle sale.
