Thank you so much for making this happen!
  • To Dr Sherrilynn Wakefield from the Katanning Vet Clinic for coming out to speak at the breakfast about farm dog health and diseases in foxes, and for offering a big smile while handing out all the prizes and goodie bags!
  • We are thankful to the SSAA who took up the sponsorship of the Red Card for Rabbits and Foxes events, and for their contribution of the $5 bounty to support the Regional Men’s Health Initiative.
  • To the teams, who go out and make a difference, and still manage to come in for breakfast and be cheerful and bright despite being out a long sleepless night. Well done for getting those foxes, rabbits and cats!
  • And, last, but not least, to our many sponsors. Thank you for your contributions. They make these events happen!
