CHALLENGE for 2010 !!!!
The Llama Futurities Association has been gifted with a challenge for the 2010 annual event.
The LFA has received a very special donation and a challenge, which has been issued by Michigan!! Michigan is challenging every other state, individual, and entity, to meet or exceed the generous donations and gifts coming out of Michigan for the 2010 LFA annual September event.
To start things off – Twin Lakes Llamas – Mark & Karen Brant, has donated a one week stay at their home on St. Croix, Virgin Islands. Check this out – go to www.mystxhouse.com and plan your vacation. This will be offered to the highest bidder at the 2010 event, to be auctioned off on Saturday prior to the sale. In addition, Twin Lakes Llamas has generously donated a breeding to their new herdsire – Northwest Tonto.
We are informed that this is just the beginning from Michigan, and that Michigan is issuing a challenge to the rest of the country to meet or exceed the donations. Lets work together to make the 2010 Llama Futurities annual September event, bigger, better, more exciting, more fun and more rewarding that ever.
Contact any of the Board members with your donations. These can be anywhere from sponsoring the Friday night party, the Saturday lunch, a breeding offered, supporting the Ag Youth who unload us at the event, gas give away, a pair of handknit socks, a vacation stay, and anywhere in between. Big or small; fun or serious - the list is endless. Lets all make this an event to be remembered!
