Jamie was delighted to take second place in the lightweight division with Hawk, a wether from Patty Cake. The judge really liked the LONG loin. 
~State 4-H Goat Show, Michigan State University, June 24, 2006 Jana and Jeff were excited to have their wethers finish first and third in the heavyweight division. Scout (paint in first place) came from Peaches and Orion. Greg came from Scarlet and Rascal. Good job, guys! 
~Ionia Free Fair, Michigan, July 24, 2006 Caitlin did great with Layla (left) and Yuri (right). Layla won First Place in her division, and Reserve Champion Overall. She is from Baby Jane and Orion. Layla was also entered into a picture contest and won 5th out of nine. Click on her picture to view it. Yuri, from Daisy, won first place in the wethers. Congratulations, Caitlin! Another family took Grand Champion in the "Other than Dairy Milker" division with a doe from us.

~Van Buren County 4-H Fair, Michigan, July, 2006
Jesse couldn't have been happier with Gail, who is from Seven and Rascal. Gail won first place in the Junior Non-Dairy Milker division, and went on to win Overall Grand Champion. ~Mecosta County Agricultural Fair, Michigan, August, 2006 Tara won Grand Champion Market Goat, Rate of Gain, and first place in Showmanship with Luke, a son from Patty Cake (notice the long loin). 
She also took a doe from us born to Tarabella and Orion, and won Reserve Grand Champion in breed class. The judge said that out of all the goats there, she was the most correct as far as breed standard goes. Congratulations, Tara!! Sorry the picture does not come through well. 
~Clinton County 4-H Youth and FFA Fair, Michigan, August 1, 2006 Justin wasn't available for the picture, but he won Reserve Grand Champion Market wether with this guy from Seven and Rascal. 
~Michigan State Fair, Youth Show, Detroit, MI, August 29, 2006 Jana placed 2nd in her age division for Showmanship, and with Scarlet took first place in the Mature Doe 4+ Years division. This was our first year to ever go to the MI State Fair. It was a lot of fun. We were only there during the week for Boers. We slept in empty goat pens right across from our goats! It was quite the experience, and we plan to go again next year.
