PIERCE COUNTY CHAMPION: LAURA RUSSEL
Richard and Sandy's Boer Goat Farm donated USBGA Fullblood Registered Rogue Valley Dani to the winner of the Pierce County Fair 4-H Meat Goat Class, Laura Russel. Laura is going to raise fine show animals, and will show Dani's offspring.
At Richard and Sandy's Boer Goat Farm, we believe it is important to support our youth and promote the Boer Goat Industry through the 4-H and FFA programs. Our youth are our future!

Demitri did a great job of raising this market doeling as his Market Animal Project. We purchased her at the Lewis County Fair Auction.
The doeling is extremely long, shows an excellent loin and won rate of gain at the show. Demitri should be very proud of the job he did in preparing this animal for the show and we were very happy to purchase her.
This doe is now in a production herd at Clemmons Summitview Boers http://www.clemmonssummitviewboers.com where she will pass along those great production traits!
Thank you Demitri for selling us this beautiful doe.

Meet Alle' Bol. You will be seeing her at future shows.
Alle' showed RNSH Coaco's Angel at the Southwest Washington Fair in 2010. At eight years old, she is already proving to be a strong competitor in the show ring!
Little Alle' loves animals and is incredibly good with the goats. Adding to that, her first time in the ring she performed like a seasoned showman.
Out of twelve goats in the class, Alle' and RNSH Coaco's Angel took third, placing behind Richard with RNSH Tarzina and Sandy with RNSH Yakety Yak Don't Talk Back and in front of Justin Kramer with RNSH Meadow Tino. Goats from Richard and Sandy's Boer Goat Farm took 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th place in the class.
