celebrating a dandenongs institution
It was wonderful to join the 60th birthday celebration of the Save the Dandenongs League yesterday at Karwarra Gardens in Kalorama.


It was wonderful to hear stories of SDL founder May Moon, known not only for her fiesty and fierce protection of the Dandenong Ranges but for her memorable drop scones too.
Many recounted stories of past trials and tribulations as well as challenges for the future. SDL continues to be the voice of the community, I look forward to joining them for many future celebrations.

Boy, does it bring back the past hearing Miss Moon's name again. My grandmother's home was across the road from Miss Moon's in Jeeves Ave Kalorama, fiesty and fierce indeed, as kids, my cousin and I received the tongue of Miss Moon many a time. And to this day I still respect her great work, but call her "May" never, never, always Miss Moon. Fond memories.
You're not alone Jim, even in 2010 she's still being called Miss Moon.
