Grand Champion Goat - Christopher Zupan - La Porte Jr. FFA - 7th Grade

Hi my name is Christopher Zupan. I am a member of La Porte Junior FFA. I am currently in 7th grade and am very active in school. I play football and baseball as well as raise goats. I have been raising for 3 years. This year started out really rocky for me. I had purchased a really nice goat, but he ended up dying early in the growing season. I struggled with the thought of getting a new goat. I eventually decided it was a good idea so I purchased Buddy. I worked with Buddy every night at the barn. We also went to many prospect shows. Buddy and I made a great team. We placed well in class and even almost won junior showmanship a few times. I worked really hard this year and it all paid off. It felt amazing winning Grand Champion. It has really pushed me to work even harder and continue to raise. I plan on raising many more goat projects throughout the next few years. The money I earn from Buddy will help fund those future projects. I appreciate you helping me financially with my future projects.
