The Maine Boer Goat Association changed its name to Boer Goat Breeders of Maine at a recent meeting to more closely reflect the group’s mission: to better the meat goat industry in Maine through the use of superior Boer goat genetics.

The organization also elected new officers to one-year terms. George Martikke was elected president followed by Vice President Rod Harrington, Secretary Joanne Gorey and Treasurer Rose Martikke.

Boer Goat Breeders of Maine is open for membership to all interested. Contact Joanne Gorey at 696-4949 for more information.
