There is a task force of alpaca breeders working on getting a float in the 2009 Rose Bowl Parade here is some back ground on that project from a member of the task force

The idea came about to have an alpaca float in the Rose Bowl Parade as a
way to give alpacas more recognition, to bring more awareness of
alpacas, the alpaca industry, and alpaca breeders in North America.
Kim deVos took this to the AOBA Board. They okay-ed it if we can raise
the money ourselves. From a financial perspective, we cannot
use "AOBA" funds for this. We (the Task force) have to raise all the
money for the float. If we cannot raise the money, it will not
happen. It is up to us and the members to make this a reality. The
project belongs to everyone. There will be no "big" sponsorships! No
one will get to pay for it all and get their name written on the side
of the float. It has to be a grass roots effort with everyone feeling
a part of it. We are hoping that each alpaca lover will do something,
big or small, to support the float.
