Run 1512: Sunday 19th June @ 10.00am - Gabs Game Reserve PLUS!

This week's hash will be on Sunday the 19th of June at 10:00a.m. in front of the Gaborone Game Reserve (Broadhurst).  The "PLUS" as advertised in the Subject of this email will be the annual On-After Game Reserve Picnic after the run.  Or as I like to call it, "Dining with Monkeys".

 

Directions to Game Reserve as follows (we will meet outside the front gate):

 

From Gaborone Sun/National Stadium/University of Botswana, etc:

Head north on Chuma Road (toward Broadhurst) and at the intersection of Nyerere/Segoditshane/Chuma roads where you see the "Maru Apartments", take a right onto Metsemasewa Road.

Continue on this road as it passes Maru-a-Pula school, bends to the left, and you wll see a "Gaborone Game Reserve" sign indicating that you must turn right, as well as (hopefully) K3H signs from here.

 

From the Western Bypass:

At the BTV Circle, head east "into town", on Seboni Road, over the railway line, and through the stop junction with Nelson Mandela Road where Seboni becomes Nyerere Drive.

Continue on Nyerere drive straight ahead approximately 3km, straight through the major stop junction with Chuma/Segoditshane and continue past Maru-a-Pula school as per the instructions above.

 

After the hash we will have a bring & braai/picnic inside the Game Park, so please bring your favourite picnic'ing cuisine, probably considering extra quantities because whether you like it or not, you will undoubtedly end up unintentionally sharing a portion or two with the notorious Vervet monkeys of the Gaborone Game Reserve.  The Cost of entering the Game reserve is Adults = P10 and children the age of 17 and below pay P5. If you are using your own vehicle there is an extra vehicle fee of P10, and we will share cars if there is room you can spare in yours.
