Encompassing the Fraser Valley and Vancouver Island, this club boasts hosting the longest running consignment sale in Canada and possibly North America. For 38 years the West Coast Hereford Club has been sponsoring the Evergreen Sale in May. This tradition will be coming to an end in 2007 with the annual sale shifting to a fall sale. The club is still active with members owning part of or all of many significant breeding animals that contribute to the Hereford breed. Look for an interesting sale in the fall of 2007.

They hosted the Yellowhead Select Sale from 1996 to 2005 when the members decided they could not come up with the required numbers and a new market has been .sought. This club is also active in bull testing with active participation in the Fort Fraser Bull Test Station.
