SA Hunters Newsletters

Skielik is ons by die einde van April en die jagseisoen is hier. Ek vertrou dat elkeen van ons lede genoegsaam voorbereiding gedoen het vir die jaggeleenthede wat nou ernstig aandag gaan kry. Maak asseblief seker dat u optrede in die jagveld en ook andersins absoluut veilig sal wees.

Autumn is in the air and the first leaves are already falling. The morning breeze is considerably cooler. Sadly, large parts of the western regions of the country are still suffering from a drought. A farmer from the Namakwaland region told me last week that they had not had any rain for the last nine years. We keep them in our thoughts and try to help where we can.

Herfs is in die lug en die eerste blare begin val met `n heerlike koeligheid soggens. Ongelukkig is daar steeds groot gebiede in die westelike deel van ons land wat gebuk gaan onder ernstige droogte. `n Gesprek met `n boer in Namakwaland die afgelope week bring trane in die oë wanneer hy vertel dit is die negende jaar van droogte en dat geen druppel reën in meer as `n jaar in die hele distrik geval het nie. Ons harte gaan uit na hulle en ons gaan regtig probeer help waar ons kan.

There is a time for everything. The Bible taught us so. This newsletter is later than usual because I wanted to include important decisions that the Extended Board took on 7 March.
