ALSA Showring

The publication that reaches
all ALSA members.



this page updated as of July19, 2010

Showring is the publication of the Alpaca Llama Show Association that 
serves all members of the association.

The ALSA Board of Directors is pleased to announce plans for the return of Showring in 2010!  Back in the hands of the ALSA membership, Showring will be a bi-monthly publication put together by an all volunteer committee of editors, organizers, writers, and designers, chaired by ALSA member, Leigh Snyder 

Showring typically contains a communication from ALSA's President, updated information on awards earned by llamas, alpacas, and youth, show schedules, articles for youth members, show superintendents, and the membership, and results from the Regional shows and the Grand National show. 

Showring readers are invited to send articles, letters, general ideas for content you would like to see.  What are we looking for?  Written and photographic content that celebrates the fun, the competiition, the hard work conected to all aspects of llama and alpaca showing (before, during and after).  Have some advice?  An interesting story?  Don't keep it to yourself - share it with the world.  Suggested length for written pieces is 250-750 words in length.

Important Note:  To keep Showring unique and special, we request that all articles submitted be original, previously unpublished pieces.  Authors are welcome to submit articles to additional publications after they have appeared in Showring, but we prefer not to use items that have already been in print elsewhere.  If you do want us to consider reprinted articles, be sure when submitting them to notify us where and when they have published.

Prior to Showring being printed, a hard copy will be delivered to the Publications Committee liaison, selected by the Board of Directors, for approval.

Advertising rates will be announced after the first issue has been mailed and in your hands. Advertising is encouraged and needed for SHOWRING, so rates will be low.
