Thanks for being patient waiting for the details for this rare opportunity to photograph alpacas. The logistics were complicated!
Come to an alpaca farm with five delightful alpacas, ducks and chickens. This will be a great photo opportunity. Please note: Alpacas are curious but shy, ask the ranch owner before touching them, they can be skittish.
You must RSVP for this field trip. Limit 10, we do not want to stress out the alpacas. RSVP at RSVP@evergreencameraclub.com. This is a member-only field trip.
Meet at 6:00 pm on Pleasant Lane, next to Fire Station 7 on Highway 65 just south of I-70. Bring your camera and medium-to-wide focal length lenses, please no tripods. Wear old clothes and comfortable shoes. You may get spit on or step in something!
