Hosted by the Collie Club Of Southern Ohio The first Kem was held in 1958 and was hosted by the Indiana Collie Club. It was first designed so that the Collie Clubs in the Tri State Area (Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio) could host the Kem on a yearly rotation.
The Kem is one of the oldest Collie Sweepstakes and the only one that requires the judge to be an AKC licensed judge. Below we have the results from the 2005 Kem Memorial Sweepstakes.
