To create the list, SmartMoney started with 18,135 funds and share classes with less than $250 Million in assets.  They narrowed the search with screens for no-load funds, top Lipper rankings, "cheap fees", and other factors.  The Conestoga Capital Small Cap Fund was one of 16 funds to make the list.

The Fund continues to be an important part of Conestoga’s growth, with net positive inflow of over $15 million in 2008.  With an expense ratio of 1.10% after waivers, the Fund serves those investors that require a mutual fund or do not meet our separate account minimum.
