This is a good sign that our industry and its supporters remain excited about their llamas and committed to the industry’s success. The LFA Board promises this year’s LFA show and sale will be one NOT to miss and an event fondly remembered. With a few minor tweaks and unique additions to the schedule of events, we feel this year’s LFA will continue the upward momentum that the entire industry is enjoying! In keeping with the LFA tradition of Fun and Frivolity, make sure you join us Friday evening. In addition to the open bar and hot hors d oeuvres, Sally Rucker will take us on a historical journey with a presentation:” Remembering our Roots.” As one of our industry’s most knowledgeable historians, Sally will take us back to the beginning, briskly walking us thorough our industry heritage including the Llama Stars in our industry today. At the conclusion of the presentation, Sally will offer her expert commentary as the LFA introduces the lineup of gorgeous males available in the Claims Futurity held on Saturday. The Saturday LFA auction is offering a stunning line up of quality show girls and prominent pedigrees. There will be a girl in this auction for EVERYONE. Adding that perfect show girl or just looking to include that one special pedigree to your herd, she’s in this year’s auction! Kicking off the Saturday afternoon events will be the Male Claims Futurity Classes. Select a proven male or an up and coming herdsire for a small investment. The finale, of course, is the auction itself. Remember to enter your sale purchase immediately into the Sunday LFA Futurity. The Early Bird Special is over and was successful in getting a solid base for the futurity classes. Now it’s time for the rest of us to get our entries in. Go to the LFA website for the entry forms and guidelines. The 2015 LFA will wrap up our events with the Renowned LFA Futurity Classes on Sunday morning. Once again offering the prestige of placing and taking home the largest premiums paid in the industry. The exhibitors will be pleased to learn that the announcement of the top 10 winners will take place immediately following the final futurity class on Sunday morning. In closing I want to thank all the sponsors, consignors and volunteers. Without your generous and ongoing support, this event could not be brought to the llama community for all to enjoy. It’s not too late to offer your support to ensure the LFA Sale and Futurity returns for years to come. The sponsorship page on the LFA website outlines several options for you to participate. See you soon.

Judge for Male Claims Futurity STEVE AULD Steve was first introduced to llamas in 1988 on his uncle’s farm in northern Minnesota. Chuck “Buzz” Kraft owned Chuck Kraft Heartland (CKH) Llamas and was involved in the Minnesota and Wisconsin llama communities, including designing obstacle courses at the Minnesota State Fair. Steve, and his wife, Sandy, immediately fell in love with llamas and knew someday they would have their own. Fast forward 18 years and in 2006 Steve and Sandy finally get their chance to buy a rural property. Promising to wait one year before they brought home their first llamas, they couldn’t handle it. Three months later, they brought home their starter herd… four classic females for the total price of $250. From there the obsession was on. The Aulds have involved both of their children, Talon and Aspen, into the lifestyle as well. Their herd is now 40+ strong and the Aulds attend between 8 and 13 shows each year as they just love to show and play with their llamas. Steve’s first job as a 13 year old was umpiring fast pitch softball games in Sioux Falls, SD. He would expand into officiating other sports such as hockey, basketball and soccer. At the age of 16, Steve was an accomplished enough softball umpire that he was asked to work national girls tournaments for players older than he was. The coaches learned quick there was no intimidating Steve. Steve decided to take his passion for officiating and his love of llamas and make the natural connection of becoming a judge. In 2013 Steve attended the ILR-SD judging clinic but it took him another year to get his apprenticeships done. Steve became a certified ILR-SD judge in October 2014. Steve, Sandy and Aspen Auld own and manage Aspen Rayne Ranch from their new home in Waverly, Iowa. Steve is an Information Technology Manager for CUNA Mutual Financial Group, volunteers as the Information Technology Consultant to the ILR and also judges goat shows. “It is an honor to be asked to judge an LFA show in just my first year. I look forward to meeting many new friends as I judge shows in places we have yet to visit.” Awards Spotlight RENEE HOBBINS Michigan born and raised Renee Hobbins is a self-taught artist who fell in love with llamas 30 years ago while child sitting for Juliet Sprouse. That led to a herd of her own, now 15, and many opportunities to share her love for llamas with family, 4-H members, fiber artists, and the local fair. Renee works with oil and chalk pastels, acrylic paint, painting on ceramics, as well as creating llama dolls, felting, and spinning her own yarn. Her favorite thing about llamas is the peace they bring while just sitting with them and the feel of their luxurious fiber as she sinks her hands into it. www.thelfa.org 2015 LFA Sale • 7 LOT 1 Consignment of Mark and Susan Smith Mark Smith Farms, Crawfordsville, IN MSF JEWELL'S AMOLITE Bred Female ILR # 285520 DOB 09/20/2012 Service Sire: GNLC Crocket Breeding Date: TBA GNLC Santiago #252939 GNLC Full Tilt #271937 GNLC Lady Guinevere #246133 Crown Prince #105972 Crown Jewell #171696 Megastorm #85567 Very seldom do we sell a female from the #1 producing female in our herd.

Charita may be the stretchiest llama in her incredible pedigree with the best head and ears. She is a show stopper and will be a headline female.

His sire, Pepper Moon, is an outcross suri male with awesome suri fiber and striking markings. Prime was shown very limitedly. In 2010 Prime won his class of yearling suri males, and was grand champion of the suri division and received the SSLA Best of Show award at the NE Tennessee Llama Show. We also took him to the first gathering of Friends and Champions where he won his class of two year olds and was reserve champion suri male. We have bred him to two of our females. The first breeding resulted in a stylish male who in a very short time went on to accumulate 37 halter and 99 performance SD points including Reserve Champion Novice performance at the 2014 Gathering. The late fall of 2014 brought the results of the second mating by producing an eye catching black and white suri paint female. As of this writing this female was not old enough to show.
