Spring Creek Sproingers
Llama 4-H Club
Our club has been going strong since fall of 1998; in working with
the llamas and presenting them to the public, the kids have gained
an amazing level of maturity. With the Joyful Llama Ranch being located
near the Urban Growth Boundary, it's convenient for suburban kids to lease
our llamas ($1 per year) and come to the ranch to train them. We show
at several county fairs each year and win lots of ribbons.
What is a "sproinger"? The word "sproing" describes that "bouncy" type of
running in which all four feet leave the ground. Young llamas often
display this behavior at sundown--come to the ranch & watch!
