This Week's Hash: Glen Valley Poo Ponds

Howzit Hashers,

Before we get to the art of making you lost, a quick announcement: 

We have a new international co-ed prospective hasher named Natalie who would like to join us this weekend, but has no 4-wheeled-transportation device in which to transport herself. Nor does she have a good idea of where the dickens the Glen Valley Poo Ponds is. If anyone is traveling from the south side of town (or Gabane or Block 9 or Mokolodi or elsewhere) and could swing by Kgale View to give her a lift on Sunday, can you please contact the mailing list (kalahari.hash at gmail dot com). Come on, be nice. 


This week's hash will be at 10:00am on Sunday the 6th, from the outer fringe of Broadhurst. Your hares are our esteemed GM, Little Boy Blue, and The Pusher. Directions (translated from very poor Swedish) are as follows:


(Meeting point is) - Gabs side of the Phakalane ponds. This is on the "shortcut gravel road" from Broadhurst to Phakalene.

 

Coming from Gabs Sun going north (on Chuma Rd.) up to the big crossing at BBS mall (Lemmenyane + Segoditshane Way), go right (onto Lemmenyane) and make sure you still have BBS mall on your right while you are approaching the circle/rundabout. Go left (on Limpopo) in the roundabout/circle (now) heading north. You get out of town and pass Botlhale International School and the BDF on your left. Keep on and the tarred road goes over to  gravel road. You are now in the flourishing agricultural land of Glen Valley. Just keep straight on the gravel road for a couple of km and you will drive into a bunch of hashers if you are not very early. 


And if you are the front driving early birds bustards, you can watch out for passing through what has probably been a gate to a fenced area and the road bends to the left. When you see a natural wall on your right, which could be keeping Phakalne ponds from flushing the car, coming up along the road, you are at the venue. A path leads up to the wall 5-10m from the road. Keep that shaded area to the right, close to the bushes for the hash circle etc and find a parking wherever else.


The On-Afters is a Bring & Braai at La Casa De Stenbeck (Little Boy Blue & The Pusher's Palace), Plot 13185 in Broadhurst after the run.
