The show has raised almost $50,000 through the silent auction over the past five years with the funds going to various alpaca-related charities and causes.
Vendors generously donate items to the silent auction as do many of the exhibitors competing in the show. In the past, breedings to some of the country’s top herd sires have been donated.
Silent auction items are available for viewing during the entire show. Tables will be located on the main floor of the coliseum along the wall behind the show rings. Be sure to visit the silent auction area during the show and bid.
