Kikofest 2008 Sale Catalog
The Board of the IKGA would like to offer once again its Membership a unique opportunity, in the form of advertising within the Sale Catalog of KikoFest 2008.
This is
offered exclusively to you, the Membership, over two weeks ahead of the general
Commercial Sector, from which there has already been several inquiries.
Rates for Black & White ready artwork are as follows;
FULL PAGE (8.5"x11") $80
HALF PAGE (4" x 11") $45
QUARTER (4" x 5" ) $25
Rates after June 1st ( at which time the offer will be open to the commercial
sector ) will be $100, 50 & 30 respectively. Color entries will apply at
double the above rates.
This offer presents a very advantageous focal point for Farms to present their
operation / stock above and beyond the limitations of individual catalog
entries.
Inquiries should be made to myself in the first instance, as this opportunity
is limited as regards space. One not to be missed!

IKGA Breeder Member Farm Displays
If you are an IKGA Breeder Member and want to have a
Farm/Ranch Display at "KikoFest 2008", send $ 10 to the IKGA - P.O
All checks need to be in the office on or before
This is a great way to advertise your farm/ranch at
KikoFest. Attendees from 21 different states came to "KikoFest 2007".
Many were new goat producers and do not have access to the Internet.
A Farm Displays is an excellent way to show off your farm
and bloodlines.
Here are a few hints for your Farm Display.
- Have a picture of your Herdsires with bloodlines listed or
even a copy of their Registration Papers.
- Have some pictures of your kid crop.
- Have pictures of any Kikos you have for sale.
- Have your contact info available ( business cards work
best )
- Give a short description of your management practices.
- List your goals for your Kikos.
- List the different Classifications you are breeding.
(
- Have photos of kids and their birthweights, 30 day weights
etc.
The Farm Displays were a huge success during
"KikoFest 2007" and lots of conversations about bloodlines, weaning
weights, goals, etc. were talked about.
If you have any questions about Farm Displays, please email
Kim Spencer at barehollowranch@yahoo.com
