2009 Great Western Alpaca Show weekend in Denver is coming soon!

Welcome back to all those 249 farms from the 2008 show.  Join your fellow breeders from 29 states at one of AOBA's major alpaca shows as we celebrate the coming of May with a great show and lively Saturday night party!

For the results of the Level V AOBA certified 2008 Halter show [1220 entries], please visit the Alpaca Breeders of the Rockies Event Results page.

The $25/stall discount expires January 20, 2009 at midnight and orders postmarked after that date will have to pay the regular amount. Stall placement is determined by postmark on the stall order (with payment) sent to ABR, P.O. Box 1965, Estes Park, CO 80517.

SPONSOR sign-ups begin on 11/21/08 and a new Sponsor level was added for 2009, $5,000 Platinum level.  Sponsors receive preferred stall locations, banner displays above the show ring, dinner tickets and publicity in all of our correspondence and other media.

Major Sponsorship Opportunities are available. Get them quickly….they go fast! Sponsors get prime stall positions and other benefits.

The Great Western Alpaca Show grew out of The Alpaca Breeders of the Rockies, Inc. participation in the Estes Park Wool Market and in 2003 became an independent event with 747 entries shown in the initial show. In 2004 it jumped to a Level V show with over 1056 entries and remains one of the largest alpaca halter shows in the USA, surrounded with fun events and a true Western welcome.

Never been to GWAS?? Everything happens under one roof at the National Western Complex, so weather is not a daily consideration. It's only one exit from the junction of Interstates 70 & 25 and is a livestock-friendly environment. Vet check is done in your trailer, with 4 vets on duty to speed things along. We have plenty of large carts and helpers to unload your gear and get you to your stalls quickly. Shredded cardboard bedding is provided as part of your stall fee and you don't have to do clean-up after the show! And the 125+ ABR volunteers who staff the show, barn and events are mighty friendly and eager to help newcomers.
