Who are you supporting to "Kiss the Goat"! 😘🐐

Something big (and a little ridiculous) is coming to Jefferson.
It involves a goat.
It involves brave volunteers.
And it all depends on you.

Stay tuned to meet this year’s contestants and start voting.

🐐 THE GOATS ARE COMING! 🐐

​Mark your calendars for the official Goat Island Send-Off!

​On Friday, June 12th at around 3:00 PM, our amazing Friends of Goat Island volunteers will be transporting the herd over to their summer home on the island.

​Come on down to the riverfront to wave goodbye and wish them a great season! It’s the perfect chance for the kids (and kids at heart) to see Billi Vanilli, Gizmo, Macchiato, Mimi, Miss Smores, Sunny, Sweetie, Thunder, and Zeus up close before they head out to start their hard work landscaping the island.

​Bring your cameras, your family, and your best goat cheers! Let’s give the herd a proper Jefferson welcome to the island!
​See you there! ☀️👇
