Got a young alpaca fan in the family? Or maybe someone aged 7–26 who's keen to learn more about these curious livestock? NSW Alpaca Youth are running the very first youth event at the Quirindi Show this year, and it's all about having fun with alpacas.
There are two parts to the day: Stockmanship and Showmanship. Don't worry, nothing tricky or intimidating. It's a relaxed, hands-on chance to spend time with some adorable alpacas and pick up a few new skills and friends along the way.
