It is with deepest regret that we announce the passing of CKA Life Member and long time Custodian/Caretaker John Davidson. John was for many years the caretaker at McLeans Island, mowing the grass, repairing the irrigation and anything else that broke down, cut down trees and a multitude of other jobs. We will be forever in his debt. Our deepest sympathy to Ellen, Emma and all of John's friends and family at this sad time. Rest well John.

Work has begun on the install of the new switchboard at the kennel centre. This is an essential upgrade as the old switchboard posed a significant fire risk and there was no room left for any upgrades to our electrical system. Expensive but absolutely essential.

By now those of you who visit the McLeans Island venue will have seen the amazing job Wendy has made of the gardens.

Now that winter is fast approaching we need to mulch the gardens and pea straw is the best option.

If anyone has a source of pea straw that we can purchase at a good price we would love to hear from you.
