Nomination Packets

Nomination packets will be mailed to 2014 and 2015 consignors in early April. Nomination packets will also be mailed upon request. To request a nomination packet, please contact Pam Thomas at pthomas@umd.edu or (301) 432-2767 x315.

Nomination packets will include a letter to consignors, nomination form, guidelines and protocol, deworming guidelines, animal health requirements, animal health self-certification form, buck information sheets, kid data sheets and codes, and performance and carcass contest procedures.

A producer may consign up to five male goats to the test.  Anyone who consigns at least one goat is eligible to enter a goat in the performance and carcass contest. Those who consign five goats to the test and have a goat in the carcass contest will receive a discount of $20 per test goat. There is no cost to enter the carcass contest.
