CASTERTON will celebrate its 14th Pedigree Working Dog Australian Kelpie Muster June long weekend 2010 and visitors can expect another fun-filled event for the whole family.
Incorporating the Casterton Kelpie Festival and the Casterton Working Dog Auction, plans for this year’s muster are running right on schedule.
Entries have already been received for many of the activities and community groups have been hard at work finalising plans to ensure the smooth running of the weekend’s activities.
For over ten years the Casterton Community has embraced its local icon the Kelpie and celebrated it on the June long weekend with the Australian Kelpie Muster. Last year saw record crowds and this year it is expected to top that. This year promises to be a a mix of both fun and serious business.
