You will do great. Just remember have fun!!! Our first show was the Tulsa State fair. It was something else to have to be there for four days but I had a blast and got hooked by the goat show bug. Just don't do like I did and pack up ready to go and forget the goat lol.

Yes lots & LOTS of them!
You'll have loads of fun, goat people are the best! We never had any ranch signs either for the first few years. It was something we wrongly assumed was going to be too expensive.
