Sanctioning Your Show with the ALSA Office


Important!
 
The ILR number for each registerd animal must be included in your results sheets for each show.  The ALSA database needs these ILR numbers to help increase accuracy when posting show results.  An animal who is not registered with the ILR, but meets the exceptions stated in the 14th edition of the Handbook, p. 18, may still show in an ALSA Show.  Registration rules have not changed.  We are just requesting that all ILR numbers of registered animals be submitted with your show results.  Thank you for helping us improve accuracy.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sanctioning Your Show with the ALSA Office
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is a reminder that your show must be properly sanctioned with the ALSA Office 90 days before the date of your show.  No show promotion may be done until show sanctioning is complete.  This not only includes the ALSA sanctioning fee, but includes the items for Show Approval on page 21 of the 14th edition ALSA Handbook.  "Show Manager must submit the exhibitor show packet (general rules, format, and list of classes) before publication of the show to the ALSA Office at least 90 days prior to the date of the show".  More detailed information is also listed in A, 4 on page 21.  Listed below, take note of additional important points that must be included in your show information.

Promoting Your Show on the ALSA Website
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Let Us Help You!
Many shows are now putting all their information and forms on the web rather than spending the money to mail out information to potential exhibitors.  ALSA can help you promote your show in two ways:

1.  If you do not have a website or any space to put your show information on the web, you can put all your forms on the ALSA website for only $20.  There will be a link to all your show information right next to your show listing on the ALSA Show Calendar.

2.  If you do have a Show website, ALSA will put a link to your show information right next to your show listing on the ALSA Show Calendar at no charge.  Be sure to provide the Office with the URL address when you sanction your show so they can add it with your show information.


Important Points Must Be Included In Your Show Information
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1)  It states in the Handbook that all sanctioned shows must include the specific instruction in their show information as to whether a youth 8 to 12 years of age is permitted to show an intact male over 24 months of age.  It is not recommended by ALSA however the final decision lies with Show Management.
Part I, Section 5, K (14th edition) reads as follows:
“It is recommended that exhibitors 8 years through 12 years of age not show intact males over 24 months of age, with the choice of acceptance or decline lying with show management and stated in their premium show booklet.”

Adding A Fleece Show to Your Llama Show
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1)  If you are adding a fleece/fiber show to your llama show, please list it as a separate Fiber Show so fiber enthusiasts can locate it on the Fiber Show list.  A Fiber Show requires a separate show sanctioning fee, separate results, and separate show fees.  The show may have the same name as your llama show but add it in as separate listing for the Fiber Show - eg. Fuzzy Llama Show and Fuzzy Fiber Show.

2)  ALSA fees for a Fleece Show are $3.00 each entry ONLY if the entry is not entered into a Halter or Performance class at the show.  If the animal is also in a halter or performance class, the $5.00 ALSA fee also covers the fleece class - there is no other ALSA fee.

Selecting A Judge For Your Show

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1)  Just a reminder that in selecting a judge for your show, the level of the show only reflects the classes your show offers.  The show level does not equal the level of the judge you need to hire - they are two separate issues.  The level of the show represents the classes that you are offering.  The level of the judge is relative to how many animals they can judge due, for the most part, to experience.  A Judge can judge up to a maximum number of animals as listed for their level of judging.  All judges should be given the opportunity for judging and it is suggested that you do not use a Level III judge for a show that a Level I or Level II judge is allowed to do.  If you are having a Level III show, you do not have to hire a Level III judge.  Changes have recently been approved for changes to the Judge's specifications, so watch for a new posting.

          New Items to Know for 2008!         
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1)  The ILR number for each animal must be included in your results sheets for each show.  The ALSA database needs these ILR numbers to help decrease errors when posting show results.
