NEENAH - Alpacas took center stage in Neenah Sunday to show off their soft coats and loveable nature.
The animals were featured in the Lucky 13 Spring Bling Alpaca Show at the Tri-County Arena.
Breeders from local farms, and across the country, brought in more than 250 Alpacas.
The animals were judged and ribbons were handed out based on the quality of the alpacas' fleece.
Breeders said it's a chance to promote the animals and their fleece products.
"The Alpaca fiber is extremely warm. It's usually non-allergenic. So if people are allergic to wool, they usually are not to alpaca," said organizer Lori Konyn.
The event also featured some hand-crafted alpaca products and live demonstrations of how to spin fleece into yarn.
