Sharing Information

SOUTHERN STATES LLAMA ASSOCIATION Journal

SSLA puts together a quarterly publication called the SSLA Journal. They are posted on our Member’s Only Page of our SSLA website as a member benefit, plus sent electronically to the membership via email. It’s also a great opportunity to share information, calendar of events, stories, photos, show results, BOD meeting minutes, Annual Membership meeting minutes, and more!

SSLA hopes by providing this online publication, we provide the opportunity for everyone to stay informed, veterinarians to send herd health articles and medical updates, updated calendar of lama industry related events, and much more.

A donation of show results, farm or event articles and photos are beneficial in adding value to this great resource for our membership. Articles can be submitted in Word format. Please attach photos to email containing articles, or label photos with article title to ensure they are combined with the article. Please remember to submit them to Charlene Braun before the quarterly submission deadline dates listed below.

It’s also a fabulous opportunity for advertising! Promote your herd, services, events, and such.
