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.
