Show
Superintendents:
You will find all the forms and
information you will need for
your show at the link
above. A Show Packet will
not be sent to you unless
you request one from the ALSA
Office. This will enable
you to print off the latest
information from the website and
obtain your forms at your
convenience. As you can
imagine, using the website for
show forms has saved the
association many thousands of
dollars this last year. We
really appreciate your
understanding of this
change. Judges' halter
score cards do not need to be
printed on card stock.
They can be printed on regular
copy paper the same as
performance score sheets.
This will also save you postage
when sending them to the Office
after the show. If you
need any help, have any
questions, or find any errors,
please contact the ALSA Office
right away. The Office is
there to provide help at any
time with the success of your
show!

Selecting A Judge For
Your Show
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1) A show
superintendent may hire any
appropriate Judge from the
current Judge's list posted
on the ALSA website. A
Level Judge may judge a show
with up to 125 llamas.
A Senior Judge has no
restrictions on number of
animals in the show.
For
multiple judged shows, show
management may hire both a
Level Judge and a Senior Judge
whenever possible for multiple
shows under 125 animals.
Assistant Performance Judges
of an level may be employed to
work in the ring with a head
judge. (spring 2008; p. 140;
section 2; B)
2)
NEW
2009! With reference to
ALSA Judges judging shows
for other show
associations:
ALSA will not propose any
restriction on an ALSA
judges as to the shows
they judge. (minutes 1-13-09)
3)
Still
Applies! Llama
Judges may judge up to 25
alpacas in an Alpaca Show
if the following
requirements are
met. "Judges
successfully completing an
Advanced Llama Judges
Clinic (with limited
alpaca, may judge combined
llama and alpaca shows if
alpacas do not exceed 25
in number." (p.136;
part S; Section 4; B;
12) AND
"Requirements For An
Alpaca Show: Shows must
have an approved ALSA
Alpaca Judge, for shows
with 25 or more alpacas in
a breed." (p. 18; Part D;
Section C; 1) (minutes of
1-13-09)
4)
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 Senior
Judge for a show that a
Level Judge is allowed to
do.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Important!
ILR Number
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The
ILR number for each
registered animal must be
included in your results
sheets for each show.
The ALSA database needs
these registration numbers
to help increase accuracy
when posting show
results. An animal who
is not registered, but meets
the exceptions stated in the
18th edition of the
Handbook, p.12 Section 2.,
may still show in an ALSA
Show. Rules have not
changed.
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Important!
ALSA number
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Most
exhibitors of an ALSA show
would like to track their
animals points and
achievement. As a
superintendent of an ALSA
sanctioned show, you can
help to make sure this
happens. If an animal has
an ALSA number, please
include this number on
your results sheet. This
information is very
important. You should
provide a space for the
ALSA number on the entry
form. This way, the ALSA
number will be supplied by
the exhibitor. The ALSA
numbers may also be found
on the ALSA website.
Please ask the ALSA office
for guidance to find this
information. |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sanctioning
Your Show with the
ALSA Office
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This
is a reminder that your
show must be properly
sanctioned with the
ALSA Office before any
show promotion may be
done. Also,the Show
Manager must submit the
exhibitor show packet
(general rules, format,
and list of classes)
before publication of the
show information is
available to the public.
Show
Sanctioning Form is here. |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
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 these
four 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.
3.
We will
advertise your
ALSA
sanctioned
Show FREE.
If you request
:
a.we will send
out an email
blast about
your show and
b.You may put
an
advertisement
in the
Showring
Magazine.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Important
Info 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. |
