This years winner is Auravale Goldleaf Salvatore whom we share with Brett Fallon, Goldleaf Alpacas.
Lyla Fisher Memorial Trophy – Alpaca of the Year Huacaya
Inaugurated in May 2002.
Lyla was a foundation member of the Region and from the early ʻ90s to her untimely passing in 2002, was totally committed to the Region and to the Alpaca Industry, serving the Region in every possible capacity – a highly reputed alpaca breeder; show organiser and programmer; a dedicated committee member, Secretary, Treasurer, Vice-President and President. Her legacy lives on with us, through this award.
2018 Alpaca of the year was won by Goldleaf Vintage Burlesque
2019 Alpaca of the year was won by Auravale Lucian
2020 Alpaca of the year was won by Goldleaf Lyrical Song
As you can see our alliance with Goldleaf Alpacas has a significant impact on our herd success.
