NOTE: No dogs, horses, or any other livestock other than alpacas are allowed in the barns, coliseum, arenas or offices at any time. NO PETS IN THE BARNS. All pets outside of the barns and on the grounds must be kept on a maximum 6’ leash at all times and are the owner’s responsibility. This is a county ordinance. Failure to comply will result in notifying Animal Control. No pets are allowed in the barns, coliseum, arena or in any office at any time.

Parents - We love you and your children and want to share the wonder of our beloved alpacas with you, your family and friends. For their safety and your sanity do not let your children run around, dig in the dirt, climb on fences and gates, or any other activity deemed disrespectful. Walking only and no touching of the alpacas. Be extremely respectful of the alpacas and their owners. Ask questions and ask to touch an alpaca before doing so. This will make for a much happier memory.

After settling the alpacas in their stalls and completing check-in join your fellow breeders for a well deserved break in the barn with pizza and beverages.
