What's all the hub-bub you ask? A 5 show,
one location format is a win win for all involved, one CVI, one
trip off of the farm, one drive to the shows, one hotel room,
one set of meals, one set of stalls, one sponsorship - but 5
shows! All you have to do to get the 5 show experience is
pay the animal entry for the additional shows, that's it.
So for just $50 per show you get a different judge's opinion,
all without the additional time, expense, & travel (See
above to view the class options for each show). We are
especially pumped to be returning to the Iowa State Fairgrounds.
This location will supply us with a facility that is just
spectacular in every way! It is a true livestock facility,
with a wide open layout allowing us to put everything under one
roof! Our goal is to make this the greatest show and the
absolute place to be in October!!!! We will run just 3 halter
shows, 1 each day. This format worked amazing at our
Spring mega show, the Eastern Alpaca Jamboree. This new
format with a twist allows us more animals at a much more
comfortable pace! Of course if you do not want to enter
all 5 events you do not have to; feel free to sign up for
whatever events you feel will fill your weekend perfectly for
you. No matter what we are 100%
committed to making this the most exciting show in history and ASMS and ABR will be bringing, as always, professionalism and
expertise.
All 5 shows are AOA Certified Halter Shows
using the 50/50 judging criteria. They will be facilitated in accordance with
the current 2023 AOA show division rules. The Iowa shows are preparing for their
10th year in 2023 at the Iowa State Fairgrounds under the direction of
Alpaca Show
Management Services which is a blending of show coordinator veterans Kevin
O'Leary and Scott Young who together have run over 100 Alpaca Shows across the
country.
