TROPHIES
Broad Ribbons and trophies will be presented by the sponsors to successful exhibitors for this year’s show to add to the glamour and prestige of this National Show.
NATIONAL FLEECE SHOW 2025
Alpaca fibre is what sets us apart from other animal breeds. The National Fleece Show 2025 is the perfect event to showcase your special fleeces and to show off the advances our industry is making in producing beautiful, soft handling fleeces. A large fleece entry makes for a spectacular show display so please make every effort to send your fleeces, even if you are not attending in person.
There will be male and female age group championship ribbons as well as colour champion ribbons awarded to the successful exhibitors’ fleeces.
All fleeces will be micron tested by SGS from Timaru and judged by Natasha Clark from Australia.
Arrangements will be made so that North Island fleeces can be transported to and from the show for a small fee.
NATIONAL FLEECE SHOW WORKING GROUP / STEWARDS
Mary-Ann Pruden (convenor), with the balance of the working group still being finalised.
