With the CCV being Australia’s first cavy club founded in July 1962, we celebrated our 60th anniversary in 2022 with a special anniversary show where past and current members congregated to commemorate the wonderful occasion. The event garnered a lot of public interest and the local newspapers and photographers were on hand to capture the moment.
The CCV was afforded the opportunity to invite international judges from Germany and Poland to judge our 2024 Oktoberfest and Polish Palooza double show event. People from all over Australia travelled to enter under these judges, in their one off Australian judging appearance. This was the first time judges from Germany and Poland had judged here in Australia.
The CCV are committed to giving our members diverse and cultural judging experiences like these and we hope to have international judges here again soon.
Again, the local newspapers and photographers were on hand to capture the event.
