Wes is one of a bare handful of CaPrA certified judges, and the only one located in the eastern U.S. He will be in charge of the Eastern Cashmere Associations card grading show. The objective of card grading is to evaluate animals relative to an ideal standard and assess their potential as breeding stock. Animals are not compared to each other, as in a competitive show, but only to the breed standard. Allowances are made for age and sex. Each animal entered must be accompanied by last year's fleece.
All natural colors are desirable.
A judged photo contest will be held in the morning with the photographs on display throughout the day with ribbons in place. Our returning judge this year is Peter Sandrian. Peter is the successful proprietor of the Sandrian Camera Shops since 1969, when he took the business over from his father. Mr. Sandrian has expanded to three locations since the original Morristown store opened by his father in 1927. With the original location he is also now located in Whitehouse and Clinton.
