What’s New in the AOA National Show Points Program?

Fleece Show Point Program

So much! AOA announced the AOA National Fleece Point Program in June of 2022. The summer season of fleece shows has completed and was very successful with involvement from across the country! Fleece show points will continue to accrue this fall and next spring at any AOA Walking Fleece, Fleece, or Innovative Fleece Assessment competition.

Youth Point Program

An exciting new addition this year is the AOA National Youth Point Program. This is a wonderful way to recognize the work of AOA Youth in their show competitions. Read the details of the Youth Point Program online.

The 2022–2023 points season started on June 1, 2022, and will close on May 31, 2023. The announcement of the Top Point winners will take place at the AOA National Education and Fiber Conference in July of 2023.

Shows are a great way to network, engage in your industry, give your farm visibility, socialize with new alpaca friends, and meet the public. If you are not showing but live near a show, consider volunteering. This is a great way to get involved and stay connected in the local alpaca community.
