Peruvian Alpacas, Suri Llamas, Petting Ranch, Day Camp, Pony Rides, Horse Drawn Wagon & Parties!! Christmas Parade 2008! Let it Snow! Alpaca 4-H Club.
ALPACA 4-H CLUB!!! We have hit the ground "pronking" (alpaca slang for running & jumping). We have a great group of youths that are enthusiastic and full of energy. We competed in our first show at the Virginia Llama & Alpaca Classic on 3/14/09 in Lexington VA. Everyone came home with a ribbon! Congratulations to everyone! Showing is FUN!

Fund-raising! We need support! We have a letter on Cooperative Extension Letterhead. If you can donate towards our club, or know a business that would be willing to sponsor us, it is TAX DEDUCTABLE!!
Our 2009 first shearing session went well, thanks to all members & friends that helped out!! Poor Mignon was chilly after being shorn! But she looks pretty in PINK!

Community Service: so far, our club has participated in a nativity scene at a church & one at a nursing home, marched in the Martinsville Christmas Parade. Below are pictures from the MS WALK on April 18th in honor of our volunteer Cheryl Priddy (Swingtime is giving her a kiss for luck!!) After that we gave a skill demonstration with the camilids at the Philpott Environmental Expo!



Fundraising!! We've sold Little Ceasar Pizzas (next sale in May!!) & held a successful Bake Sale at the Tractor Supply in Eden: here is Katelin (our Club President)introducing Ying Yang to "Clover" our donation collecting Alpaca.

(Cowboy is comfy on Laura's head!) We were on exibit at the Mt. Calvary Church's Carnival.
