If you missed out on this year’s V.E.R. Spectacular, you missed a great night.

The Eastern Region’s major event of the year, features the prestigious Annual Fleece Competition, the presentation of the equally prestigious awards of Alpaca of the Year - Suri and Huacaya, and this year, included a Committee 10 Year Service Award to Rhys Owen.

For the first time, the fun of a Trivia Segment was added to the programme, so along with the popular Handcraft Competition, the Inaugural Photography Competition, and the enthusiastically competitive Silent Auction, there was something for everyone.

To catch up on all the results and see a collection of photographs taken on the night, click here - then make a note in your diary to watch out for the date of next year’s “Spectacular".



InSight Peru


InSight Peru is an initiative of the Australian Alpaca Association, in partnership with Quechua Benefit, and with the generous support of the South Nowra Rotary Club, Nowra Private Hospital and the Shoalhaven Medical Association.

It is a mission to Peru to perform life-altering cataract surgery on the disadvantaged people living in the Colca Valley. The mission was organised by Nowra Orthopaedic Surgeon and past President of the AAA Dr Ian Davison.

Victorian Eastern Region

The Victorian Eastern Region covers a geographically diverse area. Members farm alpacas across many aspects of the Australian terrain - from the vineyards of the Yarra Valley and the Mornington Peninsula, to the rich soil farming districts of Gippsland, the coastal extension from Port Phillip to Mallacoota and the grandeur of the Great Dividing Range.

Within the Victorian Eastern Region there are over 300 registered alpaca breeders, several with larger studs in excess of 400 alpacas to others with only a minimal number. Many members also promote and sell alpaca products.
