STOCKTON — Cornell Cooperative Extension of Chautauqua County’s 4-H Youth Development Goat Program is holding a pancake breakfast on Sunday, April 16, at the Stockton Fire Hall.

The event is organized by the 4-H Goat Committee. Breakfast includes grape or orange juice, coffee, pancakes, scrambled eggs, sausage and local pure maple syrup from Gustafson’s Maple Country USA. Maple products will be available for sale.

Tickets are on sale from any project or committee member, for $10 a person or $5 for youth 5 and under. Tickets will also be available at the door. During the pancake breakfast The Lindsey Farm, LaRoy Gr8 Livestock Farm, and Hilltop Livestock are holding a basket giveaway with proceeds going to the 4-H Goat program. The fundraiser will help pay for Goat project programs, including educational materials, awards, judges, gifts, and other expenses. Sponsors include the Stockton Volunteer Fire Department and Gustafson’s Maple Country USA.

The 4-H goat project offers youth a variety of programming. A committee of volunteers plan educational programs for meat, dairy, mohair, working, and pet goats. They host Super Goat Saturday annually which is a day devoted to hands-on goat husbandry skills. Youth showcase their work at the Chautauqua County Fair from July 17-23 in Dunkirk.
