JUDGES COMMENTS ON DAY
The Judge, Mrs Elaine Rogers, stated that she was very impressed with how clean and well groomed the animals were on the day. She said that it was a credit to the Owners. Mr Basil Rogers and Mrs Elaine Rogers accepted the beautiful basket of mini goat soaps and box of chocolates kindly donated by Patricia Smith, then ever so generously donated their $100 MGBAA Judging fee back to the Association.

CHIEF STEWARDS COMMENTS
Sue Ludwig thanked the Judge and said that it was a real honor to have such a highly accredited and greatly respected Dairy Goat Judge, judge our miniature goat classes for us. Mrs Elaine Rogers had spent the last month reading the MGBAA show rules and familiarizing herself with Miniature Goat Breed Standards for the judging of miniature goats at Canungra Show. The Judge offered invaluable advice throughout the exhibition, from handling tips, conformation to select for, faults to be aware of, the importance of correct hoof trimming and the results from incorrect trimming, grooming tips, tips for group classes and was very encouraging with the junior handlers. Mrs Elaine Rogers offered further support for future events which will be eagerly accepted by enthusiastic MGBAA Breeders.
Sue Ludwig thanked all the exhibitors for their support and congratulated them on their placings. It was great to see such beautiful, well presented animals, all measuring within the Show height requirements and all fantastic representatives for their Owners and Breeders.
Thanks to Canungra Show Society for providing us with our ribbons and for allocating such an interactive site where spectators could sit and watch the judging and come up for pats and cuddles after classes. Thank you for inviting us to participate in the GRAND PARADE too.
Thank you to Simone O'Brien and Sue Junee for their help setting up our area and to Simone for her beautiful photography work on the day. Big thanks to the Studs and CRT for their donations for prizes for the show too. CONGRATULATIONS to all who attended.

SPECTATORS COMMENTS
We had a fantastic response from the public, lots of interest and lots of positive comments on how beautiful, friendly and immaculately clean our animals were.
