All large animal livestock and small animal kids showing goats will need to do YQCA. A current 2025 certificate needs to be in the office by May 1st in the fair office. I am working with the FFA director on some class room dates. When those are available they will be sent out. YQCA can also be done online if they are over the age of seven (7). There are also several dates for a classroom setting across the state.
