Don Dawkins has been recognised by CRA as having working in commercial radio for 25 years, joining the prestigious quarter century club.

The recognition comes 15 years overdue however, as Don has been an active member of commercial radio for 40 years.

Colleague Pete Davidson posted on Facebook “Congrats to Don Dawkins who today became a member of the commercial radio quarter century club albeit a little late after being in the biz for 40 years. Don was presented with his certificate and medallion by the big boss and member of the hall of fame Kevin Blyton. Well done Donnie and keep it tight and bright!”

Thankfully, Don will now only have to wait 10 years between his 25 years and 50 years certificates.
