Katie has compiled the list for volunteers needed for the Lowell Youth & 4-H Goat Show.... please eMAIL her if you can help!
eMAIL: rodtenabartholom@earthlink.net or lori_greenacres@yahoo.com
The three main areas for volunteers needed...
1. Registration (help check people in and fill out exhibit tags)
2. Show Helpers (assist the judge, being a clerk, passing out trophies & ribbons)
3. Clean up Crew - help take down tables & signs, clean up pens, if needed)
Show Helpers will be needed for Showmanship, Diary Breed, Pygmy Breed and Meat/Wether Class.....we would love to have two helpers for each area.
Thank you!

IMPORTANT FAIR BOOK CHANGES....
Not all goat fairbook changes got put into the 09 fairbook.
Can you help me by getting this information to all goat leaders ASAP as it is vitally important for declaration forms which are due June 1!!
Thanks for your help.
Julie Blodgett
Goat Superintendent
Correct wording:
14. All goats must have proper ID according to the USDA guidelines for declaration forms and for fair check-in. Tattoos must be readable and ear tags must be in the ear. Microchips are only acceptable per USDA guidelines. Please refer to the USDA guidelines on page 25. Microchipped goats that were shown at the KCYF in the past, may use that form of ID. Any goats that are new to the fair in 2009 need to comply with current guidelines, and should avoid microchipping for ID purposes. TB certificates are not required for check-in unless you have purchased a goat from out of state or from the infected counties on the eastern side of the state.
