As if that wasn’t enough to entertain you, Snowflake, the goat, could be seen taking a stroll with Jansen’s Sales Consultant Zack Boeckmann. Enjoying the attention, Snowflake made his rounds, stopping occasionally for some hand fed hay and back scratches.
“Day’s like these are important. Giving back to the community and kids is what makes Germantown such a great place to live,” Boeckmann states with a smile. “It was an ‘egg-citing’ day at the dealership, seeing the looks on the little ones faces was priceless.”
