My Homepage #2010

In 2010, we will again be offering a free, purebred, quality goat kid or kids, to at least one
deserving youth. Last year we awarded an Alpine buckling to Amanda Hoeff of
Washington.
We are hoping for lots of applicants for 2010! The more youth that apply, the more goats
that will be awarded. This year, we will be awarding at least one Nubian, Alpine or
LaMancha doe or buckling (possibly more if we have more than one worthy youth
recipient).
Youths must be between 8 years and 18 years old to apply. Some priority is given to 4-H
Member FFA Members or youths that are involved in some sort of goat program OR have
specific goals.
