A simple traditional cache placed to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the Coonalpyn Show.
Mrs Hawkeye grew up in Coonalpyn and it has been a tradition we still honour to attend the yearly show entering baking, preserves and various crafts. Mrs Hawkeyes Grandfather was the inaugural president and since the beiginning there has been a member of the family at every show. Her mother has attended every show but two, the first, (1944) she wasn't allowed home from College and the second she was in hospital having her first child. (1953) The show is held each year on the third Saturday in October and you will find an abundance of local product and produce. Do yourself a favour and visit this wonderful show if you ever have the chance.
