NPGA
is
divided
into
eight
regions.
Each
region
elects
two
members
to
the
board
of
directors.
Each
director
is
responsible
for
carrying
on
the
business
of
the
Association,
and
to
take
action
on
matters
brought
to
their
attention
by
the
membership.
Each
January
the
board
of
directors
elects
four
officers:
President,
Vice-President,
Secretary,
and
Treasurer.
Several
standing
committees
are
in
place
and
given
special
responsibilities
in
the
business
of
the
Association.
These
committees
are
composed
of
a
chairperson
plus
a
nucleus
of
members
with
rotating
terms.
Other
positions
are
filled
by
coordinators
who
are
responsible
for
performing
specific
activities
on
a
routine
basis.
Each
NPGA
licensed
judge
must
earn
their
license
by
completing
a
written
examination
and
passing
a
hands-on
Judges
Training
Seminar
which
tests
understanding
of
the
breed
standard,
ring
procedure,
and
oral
presentation
skills.
We
have
many
Affiliated
Clubs
across
the
United
States,
Australia,
and
Europe.
The
members
of
these
clubs
are
promoting
pygmy
goats
on
a
local
level
by
sponsoring
workshops,
clinics,
exhibits
and
sanctioned
pygmy
goat
shows.
Joining
a
local
club
is
a
great
way
to
meet
pygmy
goat
owners
and
breeders
in
your
area.
