The Southeastern Alpaca Association, an AOBA affiliate, is pleased to invite you to the Southern Select 2012, 11th annual Alpaca Show at the Calsonic Arena in Shelbyville,Tennessee.

On March 3-4, 2012, we anticipate hosting one of the premier halter and fleece shows in the nation with a Level IV halter and Level II fleece show. In 2012 we are having a Handcrafters' Spin-Off along with our usual halter, performance, and fleece show activities. A free barbeque dinner will be served on Friday evening!

We will again feature alpaca care seminars. The SeAA store  will have alpaca merchandise available for sale. The always popular and record-setting SeAA Silent Auction will reign on the Calsonic Mezzanine. Again in 2012 the Herd Sire Breedings part of the auction will be a Live Auction held Saturday night following the dinner.

Judges

Our judges for the 2012 show will be Jude Anderson for male halter classes, Jill MacLeod for female halter classes, Winnie Labreque for fleece, and Suzanne Cox for performance. Diane Hoschler will be judging the Handcrafters' Spin-Off. The SeAA represents alpaca owners and breeders in the Southeast from the states of Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia. We invite you to enter your alpacas in the 2012 Southern Select Alpaca Show!

The Calsonic Arena

The facility for the Southern Select, the Calsonic Arena, is part of the Tennessee Walking Horse National Celebration and is easily located south of I-24 in Shelbyville, Tennessee.
