MDGA Awards Programs

gives special recognition to our members' goats
who have made significant achievement
in production and/or Linear Appraisal.

New Show Rules

The June Doe and Youth Shows are no longer accepting same day entries (although day of show substitutions will still be allowed).  There will be a significant discount for early entries. 


Judges Stipend Program

The Maryland Dairy Goat Association voted at its annual meeting to offer one annual $500 stipend to either a first-time prospective ADGA judge or a current apprentice judge who resides within a five hour driving distance of West Friendship, MD.  In return, if the selected individual becomes a licensed judge, he or she agrees to judge two MDGA shows within the following two calendar years and waive his or her judging fee.  Transportation costs for the shows will be covered by MDGA.    Applications for this stipend must be received by January 31.  All candidates will be notified on or before March 15 as to whether or not they have been selected to receive the stipend for that year.  The stipend will be awarded as a check made payable to the recipient after a training conference receipt is received by MDGA indicating the candidate has attended and completed the course.

Applications will be sent via email attachment and are available from Pat Adels, Maryland DGA secretary, at munchinhill@yahoo.com.

Applications must be completed, signed and mailed to:
