2004 Extravaganza
This AOBA Certified level 5 show (500+ animals) will
be October 23 & 24, 2004 in Syracuse, New York, October
22 will be the check-in day. We have again reserved the
Cargill Exhibition Center which is the largest building
within the fairgrounds. It is modern, heated and 115,000
square feet. This is a first class building for our
first class show.
The Empire Alpaca Association is very proud to
sponsor this show. We know our many volunteers will put
together an awesome event. We have assembled four
impressive judges for the show. Jill MacLeod will be
judging the Fleece Show. The Halter Show will be in 3
rings. Halter Classes will be run in 2 rings and judged
by Kristen Burhmann and Jude Anderson. The third ring
will be dedicated to youth and performance classes and
be guided by Linda Hayes. We believe that the dedication
to and increase in youth and performance will increase
the excitement of the show, involvement of our children
and be fun for all. So gather up your children or
4-h’ers and bring them for some fun. If you are
interested in signing up children for youth classes,
entries are made in the name of the child on the
specified entry form.
Other events planned during the weekend include:
educational seminars with exciting topics that will
interest first timers, as well as, seasoned veterans;
Friday Night Meet and Greet Reception; Saturday Night
Barbecue and a Herdsire Showcase that allow farms to
spotlight the men in their barns. We will also continue
to ask our Empire Members to bring their best end
products to sell in our EAA Product booth. As usual, we
will promote this show very heavily throughout the
northeast and we expect large masses of public to stop
by and hopefully shop. This year we are excited to be
again running a raffle, in which all of the proceeds
will benefit a selected alpaca related non-profit So
please be creative and donate something to the cause.
On behalf of the Show Committee, I would like to
invite you to come to this event to showcase your
breeding program and to hob knob with your fellow alpaca
owners. We’ve made it easy, all of the forms in this
packet that you may have to send back to us are colored,
all of the white pages are for your information. Please
fill out the forms and return them to Melissa Young-Crozet our
Show Superintendent before October 5, 2004. See you in
New York.
