Hello from the Alpacafest Comittee,
We're getting going on Alpacafest 2008 and will be updating this site as the plans get finalized.
The first event to be aware of is the spin off. Enteries will be accepted from May 1, 2008 - June 1 2008. Fleeces used for the projects must be shorn between May 17, 2007 and June 1, 2008.
To enter, you must submit 2oz of skirted fleece, in a 1 gallon bag, with a picture of the alpaca, fleece tag and spin-off form printed from the web site, and a copy of the ARI certificate. Mail along with a check made out to MIAF.

AOBA Certified Shows occurring require all alpacas to be identified with a microchip. This means every alpaca that is transported to an AOBA Certified show for any reason (i.e. show entrants, companions, auction alpacas, alpacas being transported and using the show venue as a stop off point, etc) must be identified with a microchip.
You must make sure that the proper micochip number appears on the Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (i.e. Health Papers) and transportation documents. Animals without this identification will not be allowed to enter the venue.
