Fwd: Hash No. 1559: This Sunday

Hidey Ho, Hashers,

As mentioned last week at the Poo Ponds, this week's hash comes with a special clause: we have to have permits to get onto "that side" of the dam, so you need to RSVP for this one. 

PUH-LEEEESE reply to this email and/or Rock Dassie (who is organizing the festivities for us: derick.barratt@peri.co.bw) BEFORE THURSDAY MORNING THE 10th of MAY if you can come. He needs to arrange the permits in advance, and we will pay our entry price on the day (P10/person P20/vehicle).

Meet at 10h00 on Sunday the 13th (Mother's Day! Don't forget to bring your Mummy) from "around the Gabs dam area" - the actual DAM. NOT the yacht club. Directions are as follows:

From Samora Machel Dr. (otherwise known as "the road that Fairgrounds Mall, Cresta, and the turnoff to Sanitas is on"), if you're coming from Old Naledi/Old Lobatse Road/Cresta turn RIGHT onto the water works road just past Toyota Motor Centre and Fairgrounds Mall.  Obviously if you're coming from the Gabs Sun/Riverwalk direction, this turn will be a LEFT, just before Motor Centre. There is a sign pointing to Sanitas as well as a Water Utilities board, at this turn.

Then turn left onto a dirt road (also toward Sanitas), and proceed straight down this dirt road but do NOT turn at the next option to go to Sanitas - carry on through a few twists until you come to the dam wall (hopefully on your right) and keep going up to the boom where the permits that Rock Dassie will secure for us SHOULD be waiting.

Follow the road on to CityScapes where there will be a K3H sign either pointing right or continuing a further 4km until the next K3H sign. 

A bring & braai will follow, so bring your food & chairs. It's a lovely spot by the waterside, so definitely worth the ten bucks to get in! Carpool if you can!
