2007 Skillathon

held at the
ALSA Grand National Show Of Champions

 

 
The very first Lama Skillathon was held at the 2007 ALSA Grand National Show Of Champions.  No entry fee was required and generous cash prizes were awarded through 6th place of each age division with 1st place being $100.00.  Premiums came from our generous sponsors that made this event possible.  Over 68 youth participated in the Skillathon and the results were extremely impressing.  Tiebreakers had to be referred to in many instances in order to calculate our list of winners. 
Many Thanks to Our 2007 Skillathon Sponsors!

The Skillathon consisted of four individual stations with various challenges suited for each age level.  A list of study helps were posted on the ALSA website in advance of the event.  Participants rotated between each of these stations and completed the challenges on all aspects of llamas and alpacas - care, fiber, training, and medical issues.  The stations included: 
1.  External Parts Identification   2.  Equipment Identification and Use
3.  General Herd Management  4.  Problem Solving On The Farm
