Also, we are asking for poster abstracts and submissions for the conference. The deadline for poster abstracts is April 15th.

As Extension directors and staff, you are in contact in several people who can benefit from attending the National Goat Conference and will be integral in making this conference a success. so, if you or anyone in your office know anyone who could benefit or might be interested, be sure to pass the information along.

In fact, we attached a press release for the conference and poster guidelines to this email.
