About Kevin "Short Busche"

Kevin, "Short Busche", a nickname dubbed by some of his rodeo companions from years ago, is part of a pioneer family that came to the Peace Country in 1930. His parents were both born and raised here, as were he and his three brothers and their families. Their roots here run deep, with ties to the farming and ranching communities as well as the oil & gas industry and the logging contractors. Kevin's past occupations include trucking and fifteen years as an oilfield pipeline welder. In 2001 he graduated from the Western Canadian School of Auctioneering in Calgary; this, combined with twenty years behind the mike as a rodeo announcer, has contributed to the broad and diverse customer base that we are privileged to serve.
