All Alpacas AOA, ARI or CLRC registrations. *Performance Animals or Non-Breeders classes do not need to be registered but must have a veterinarian certificate. HALTER: All animals 5 months and older entered in approved classes, with the exception of performance classes, must be registered or have passed screening in the Llama Division of the International Llama Registry (ILR) or the Canadian Livestock Record Corporation (CLRC) or Alpaca Owners Association. Non-breeder llamas do not have to be registered or have passed screening with the ILR or the CLRC. If non-breeders are not registered and wish to be in the ALSA award system and wish to show in halter, they must show in the adult non-breeder halter class. REQUIRED: Photocopies of registration papers must be sent with the entry form to show management verification of name and age. Failure to meet this requirement prohibits entry in the show. Non-breeder llamas must be accompanied by a registration or veterinarian certificate verifying the animal is a gelding, a vasectomized male, or a spayed or non-reproductive female. Nursing llama mothers may not be accompanied in the ring by their babies. EXHIBITORS Exhibitors must be the registered owners and make entry in the exact names (owner and animal) as shown on the registration certificate. 4-H members using borrowed llamas are exempt as owners but must provide owner information and registrations of the llamas they are using, as well as have a permission to show form. EXHIBITOR PACKET Upon arrival, you will stop at the Check-In Trailer with your Health papers and receive your tickets and parking passes. You will then proceed to the Superintendent s booth for further show information and pick up an Exhibitor Packet or make changes. All llamas and alpacas will enter the grounds through Gate 3.
EXHIBITOR ATTIRE Handler attire should be conservative, neat, and appropriate for the class. Shoes should be appropriate for the show ring and must completely cover the foot. Inappropriate footwear will disqualify the exhibitor, who will be dismissed from the show ring immediately. Suggested attire is dark pants, Bermuda shorts, knee-high culottes, or skirt (absolutely no short shorts, or spaghetti straps) and white shirt or blouse. Youth exhibitors are permitted to wear 4-H and FFA approved apparel in the show ring with personal names covered. Such FFA and 4-H apparel may be worn in youth classes only. HEAT STRESS CONCERNS 1. If either show management or the show judge feels the heat and/or humidity is too high for the animals in the show, they may require all exhibitors to hose down their animals before entering the show ring. 2. One criteria might be if the ambient humidity and temperature are added together and the result is 150 or higher. 3. If the decision is made to hose down the animals, the animals can only be wet from the belly down the legs. 4. Shearing of heavy or medium woolen animals is the best prevention of heat stress. LLAMA HALTER CLASS DESCRIPTIONS 1. Llama wool description: No wool class changes made at the show except by the judge. A: Suri - Lustrous, cool hand, lack of crimp and minimal loft, locked fiber that drapes over the llama's body. B. Light - Minimal body wool, short neck wool with smooth legs. C. Medium - Moderate to long body wool, minimal to moderate neck wool, smooth to moderate and leg wool. D.

Superintendent will contact you after the final entry deadline if the classes will be combined. 2. All llamas must be entered into the wool division for which they are most appropriate at the time of the show. Shorn llamas MUST be shown in the wool division in which they would have been shown prior to shearing. Shearing used as a technique to gain entry to a different wool division is not permitted. * ENTER ONLINE AT: http://form.jotform.us/form/32603339397156 - LLAMA * ENTER ONLINE AT: https://form.jotform.com/60657794163162 - ALPACA LLAMA AND ALPACA HALTER AGE DIVISIONS Juvenile 5 to 12 months Yearling 12 to 24 months 2-Yr Old 24 to 36 months Adult 36 months & older *On a llama s date of birth, the llama moves up to the next older class.

AGE DIVISION FOR YOUTH HANDLERS Junior Intermediate Senior Ages 8 through 11 years Ages 12 through 14 years Ages 15 through 18 years Age is as of January 1st of the current year. Juniors may start on the dates of their 8th birthday. Youth who turn 19 after January 1st, but before the Grand National Show of their final showing year, may complete the year as a youth in the Senior division. In Youth Obstacle and Public Relations classes, Senior and Intermediate courses may be the same, but each age category must be judged, ended, and placed separately. YOUTH Three youth classes: Junior 8-11, Intermediate 12-14, Senior 15-18, may be combined in any combination if there are not eight in a youth division. YOUTH GRAND & RESERVE CHAMPIONSHIP ELIGIBILITY A youth must enter and compete in all three performance classes, Youth Obstacle, Youth Public Relations, and Youth Pack classes to be eligible to be awarded the Grand Championship. Tabulation will be done according to ALSA rules. Check your ALSA Handbook for llama/alpaca requirements used in the three performance classes (obstacle, public relations, and pack). YOUTH AND INTACT ADULT LLAMA / ALPACA MALES It is recommended that exhibitors 8 years through 12 years of age not show intact males over 24 months of age, with the choice of acceptance or decline lying with show management and stated in their premium show booklet. In light of the above statement, this management leaves the decision up to the parent or guardian whether an intact male is gentle and manageable enough for the youth in question to show. If there were a possibility of a problem, I would ask that the youth not show the llama/alpaca. SUB-JUNIOR CLASS Youth ages 4 through 7: Let us know if you have a sub-junior who would like to compete. There is no fee, ribbons only are awarded. Sub-juniors compete only in showmanship and one 8-element obstacle course. PERFORMANCE CLASS RULE Animals may be entered in youth or non-youth classes, but not both. (See your current ALSA Handbook for complete youth rules.)

WALKING FLEECE CLASSES It is recommended that all Walking Fleece judging be done prior to halter classes to limit the use of grooming aids. The fleece judge will be snipping a small lock of fiber from the llamas for attachment to their score card. The exhibitor has the option to snip the lock themselves in the presence of the judge. Locks should be approximately ½ inch long. We will follow ALSA criteria for Walking Fleece judging. The exhibitor will bring their llama(s) to be judged during the designated time period. A judge will evaluate each llama s fleece and discuss with the owner/exhibitor while completing the Walking Fleece Class Score card.
