16 January 2010 - Daytrip - Trekoskraal
I know it is still early in the year, and that most of us just came back from the holidays and funds are at a premium but life goes on and time waits for no man or Hilux.
Niel and I discussed this and decided that for our scheduled monthly day-trip we could go to Trekoskraal and do a little clean-up exercise. That way we combine our environmental responsibility and our leasure time in a way that wont really cost a lot of money, besides for the fuel expenses. Especially after the "campers" stayed below the high-water mark and probably made a mess of the area which could endanger the local wildlife.
Further to this suggestion we also decided that if there was not enough interest in doing it in January we'll do it as our scheduled February outing.
What say you? Are you in or are you out?

Thys, I think Pieter mentioned that the farm owner give the forum members (that do the cleanup) permission to camp on his land for the weekend. But Pieter must rather confirm this.

Het self 'n kamp die 16de Januarie by Ganzekraal.
Sal noggal great wees as ons dit 'n naweek kamp kan maak.
Was vinnig daar in Desember en ja die manne het gekamp net waar hulle 'n gat kon kry.
Tieties baai was ook net so gepak.
cheers!

If I may, I would also like to join in. Looking at the feedback I assume it seems like Feb. However, I am game for any date in future.
