Goats

Goat Department -   Welcome!

The Goat Department Committee members are happy to have you visit us - both on the web and at the Fair.

We volunteer each year to help children and adults show their goats. Everyone loves to see the animlas; from the little ones just a few months old to the more seasoned does and dams, bucks and billies. Visiting the animal barns is fun and educational.

Please feel free to take a look below at the categories we generally have to show. When at the Fair, you will find us lower-fairgrounds, in the Goats, Poultry,Swine and Rabbitbarn.

If you are considering sharing your goat with us, to be sure your entry goes smoothly, please read the our Entry Information below for categories and entry rules.  Then check out the deadlines to understand which deadlines will apply to your entries.
