We were very fortunate to have beautiful weather for National Alpaca Farm Day on September 25 & 26 here at the farm. There were an estimated 200 visitors this year, and most had never seen let alone touched an alpaca before. Our Voxie was in true ambassador form, greeting visitors and kushing for kids, just begging for someone to give her a handout. Voxie is a yearling female who was bottle supplemented and sometimes forgets she is an alpaca. New this year was the obstacle course. Children were able to help us walk the alpacas over jumps around pumpkins and hay bales and into the trailer. Chace and Bogie did an excellent job of entertaining the crowd. The Alpaca Clothing Fashion Show was once again a big hit thanks to our two models Kelsee Grove and Rebecca Starliper. They were simply beautiful....and warm! But the absolute highlight of the weekend for visitors were the cria births--a male on Saturday and a female on Sunday. Hope to see you next year.Labels: Alpaca Clothing Fashion Show, NAFD
