Education | Membership | Alpaca Shows |
MOPACA is committed to providing education for members as well as members of the public. Every winter MOPACA offers a Winter Seminar: an opportunity for education about topics ranging from fleece and fiber production to animal husbandry and farm maintenance. Additional training on specific topics is offered periodically. Learn more about the Winter Seminar and other upcoming educational events here. Education for the public focuses on the alpaca, their fiber, and considerations when starting a farm. Learn more about alpacas here. More details about MOPACA's education here. | Membership in MOPACA is an investment in the alpaca industry in our region. Equally important, it's an investment in a wonderful network of alpaca owners and breeders who share the love of alpacas, their fiber, and the desire to be responsible caretakers brings us together as a community. MOPACA has a proud history of developing outstanding education, including Fiber U, which is now an independent event that continues to be held annually in Lebanon, Missouri. A quarterly newsletter provides written communications from the Board and committee chairs. Connect with us us on social media! | The MOPACA alpaca shows have become one of the country's favorites. Each year hundreds of alpacas and their owners converge at the American Royal Hale Arena in Kansas City, Missouri. The MOPACA shows offers an opportunity for alpaca owners to compete in halter shows, with nationally known and certified alpaca judges assessing their fiber and their conformation. Additional competitions such as performance, walking fleece, or fleece shows may also be held. The 2025 MOPACA Show has been scheduled! Mark your calendars for April 5 - April 6, 2025, at Hale Arena in Kansas City, Missouri! This is the 22nd year of the MOPACA show! Don't miss this awesome double show: The MOPACA Invitational Alpaca Show and The Mid America Alpaca Challenge! |
