2022 Vendor Opportunities
We are offering our vendors a great deal this year. $100.00 for a vendor space. YES only $100. With our
location at the Rockingham County Fairgounds within such proximity to James Madison University and the show
is Football weekend. We expect a huge weekend crowd at the holiday end of the year. VAOBA welcomes all
vendors, those strictly retail and others organized for wholesale possibilities, especially those who support the
alpaca industry and provide services or products alpaca-related. We will have alpaca exhibitors from everywhere
and many spectators who are eager to learn more about alpaca. And everybody can be expected to be open to a
little holiday shopping!
We take our vendors and their needs very seriously - our vendor manager this year is
