National Llama Appreciation Day

The Greater Appalachian Llama and Alpaca Association (GALA) has initiated a national campaign to educate the general public about the history and virtues of llamas. We have designated June 21 for this special day because our summer solstice is simultaneously the winter solstice in the Andes, the ancestral home of the llamas. Plan an event this June to aid in this campaign to educate others on this wonderful animal.

Lamafest 2019 ALSA show

Lamafest 2019 is one of the largest llama shows and one of the longest running shows. The show is sponsored by the Michigan Lama Association and sanctioned for 2 llama shows, one for International Lama Registry Show Association (ILR) and one for Alpaca and Llama Show Association (ALSA) and will run for 2 days August 31 and September 1.
In the show arena there will be halter and showmanship classes plus the ever popular performance classes of obstacle, public relations and pack. We will have many vendors with items ranging from animal care products to unique gift and art items. There will be farm displays offering information on breeding programs and fun facts about llamas. Youth Judging is a valuable learning tool for more in depth learning about llamas and a chance to identify future judges. The costume class is entertaining to all and will be held at approximately noon on Saturday.
Corky Dubois and her group are again hosting a fabulous Silent Auction and the proceeds will go toward the youth scholarship fund.
So load up the family and come to Lamafest. Free parking, free admission, handicap accessible and full concessions on site.
For more information, contact Corky Dubois. 616 902-2382 or info@lamafest.com.
