Volunteering Llamas
Helping Cancer Survivors Reach their SummitsAnnual "Survivors at the Summit" Hike of Kings Peak. Llamas have been helping humans carry their burdens for centuries. In 1999, our llamas began helping a very special group of people reach their goal of hiking Kings Peak, Utah's highest--cancer survivors affiliated with the Cancer Wellness House in Salt Lake City. The last Kings Peak hike was in 2005, and the Rosebud llamas carried unmanageable gear and food for each of those seven annual CWH "Survivors at the Summit" hikes of Kings Peak. This was a five-day activity of the most moving kind. We were honored to be able to be along as our llamas--doing what llamas do--helped dozens of courageous people reach their summits as part of their fight against cancer. |

| Delighting Children with Disabilities
Con Amore Free Fishing Day. Many children with disabilities in the Uintah Basin attend the Con Amore School in Myton and a host of entities and businesses support Con Amore's annual "Free Fishing Day." Rosebud Llamas Utah is among them. Held in a beautiful spot in the Uinta Mountains with fish galore and hundreds of volunteer "buddies," the Con Amore kids enjoy a day of excitement and fun. Two of our llamas are on hand to greet and delight the kids.
