Ep 120 The ABGA National Show 2021: Life’s a Boer
Show Notes

We’re very happily back on the road again this summer -- and this week we’re also back on the banks of the Platte River, in Grand Island, Nebraska, where it’s 95-104 degrees outside.  We’re filming the American Boer Goat Association’s National Show, held at the Fonner Park fairgrounds, which, by the way, is the place where you can also find the annual Nebraska State Fair. 

The ABGA is an organization that helps its members to find opportunities in the marketing, education and commercial industry for the hearty little ruminant known as the American Boer Goat.  The ABGA is a family-oriented bunch, and kids are a plentiful as adults at this get-together.  Whether it be the serious business of livestock husbandry and prepping for the show ring, or the fun-and-games of the costume contest (or anything in between), this week definitely goes down as one of the most enjoyable shows we’ve covered.  Smiling faces are common here, and we love it.  We have a game of our own today, in celebration of that.

It’s a giveaway podcast today, and we also have an exciting announcement in the Backyard Green Films universe.  Stay for Rick’s closing for all the details.  Because, after all…

Life’s a Boer.
