We are pleased to invite you to the fourth annual Happy Camper Llama Show in Estacada, Oregon on June 19th-2st 2026. This event is held at Hidden Oaks Llama Ranch (HOLR.) Columbia River Camelid Association is excited to organize the show in cooperation with our gracious hosts, Sherri & Wil Tallmon. The 2026 show has been selected as a ILR Championship Show. We are keeping things laid back and leaning in to all the things that make llama shows fun! We are excited to be back again and are looking forward to camping out and having fun with our llamas!

Bring panels, show out of your trailer, or stake experienced llamas out in the pasture at no charge. A limited number of panels are available to rent.

RVs and dry camping are encouraged. No hookups are available. There will be porta-potties on site.  Show participants camp free of charge. If no one in your group is participating in the show, there will be a $25 camping fee (per campsite) for the weekend. RVs must be self-contained. You will be parking on grass. Those who stay on site will be in a large pasture, the same pasture as the show ring. There are large shade trees in the pasture. 

New for 2026, The Pack Llama Trial Association (PLTA) Challenge! This is an event in which llamas and handlers participate for experience, entertainment and education. Rather than being an examination of a llama’s skill against strict standards, as the pack trial is, this event provides an opportunity to engage with other packers and handlers in a stress-free environment that supports learning and fun. Undertaken in a group setting, it provides PLTA members with an environment for exchange of ideas and training concepts and an opportunity to increase both the llama’s and the handler’s skill in a natural setting
