The ILR Board has decided to move forward and pursue the development of a show division. The board will consider all positive and negative responses in the development of this new show division and we are committed to this division being an affordable and fiscally independent venture FROM THE REGISTRY and a positive move for the llama industry. Motion by Kathi, second by Karen. Motion passes unanimously.
