WEEDS

To help control the spread of declared weeds in Kilkivan Shire, the committee would be grateful if participants could ensure as far as practical, that their horses are free of declared weeds' seeds before they leave home.

WATER

We are currently on Level 5 Water Restrictions.  We have a limited supply of water which is needed for drinking, showers and toilets.  Please be mindful of this.  No washing of vehicles, floats or water wasting will be tolerated.
