Waar boer jy, meneer? Vlieg praat met die volk, en krap waar dit jeuk! Vlieg bly nou al lank genoeg tussen die boere om tot die besef te kon kom dat daar baie verskillende soorte boere is. Dan praat Vlieg natuurlik nie van Boere nie. Daar is ewe baie verskillende soorte van hulle, wat egter ‘n heel ander storie is. Maar vandag praat ek van boere! Landboumanne! Plaasboere! Die belangrikste boere is die boere wat op hul plase boer. Dis die ouens met die dik voorarms, two-tone voorkoppe waar dit bruingebrand onder en wit bo die hoed se rand is. As hulle die dag skoene aan hul voete het, is dit vellies. Hulle weet nog hoe om met ‘n trekker te ry, ‘n bobbejaanspanner te draai en ‘n pomp uit ‘n boorgat te trek. Hierdie manne is Vlieg se gunsteling soort boere. Dan is daar die boere wat in hul bakkies boer. Ry net rond en kyk hoe daar gewerk word. Die son brand hulle gewoonlik net so op die regter voorarm. Baie boere boer ook in die dorp. Hulle hoop maar daar word op die plaas geboer, terwyl hulle ernstige sake in die dorp verrig. Hul arbeid is maar gewoonlik skrikkerig om in die middag weggebring te word, nie altyd so seker of dit die bakkie se dieselwalms is wat hulle ruik, of brandewynwalms wat by die venster uitwaai nie. Hierdie boere is maar bleek, die son skyn nie in die kroeg nie! Nou se dae hoor Vlieg baie van opkomende boere, maar is nie altyd so seker of hulle rêrig

aan die opkom of aan die afgaan is nie. In die tempo wat hulle geld gesteel word deur opportunistiese boere, verbaas dit niemand dat daar ‘n voedseltekort ontstaan nie. Vlieg dink die opportuniste is eintlik finansiële boere; hulle boer net met ander ouens se Landbanklenings. Kommersiële boere, bestaansboere, saaiboere, veeboere, sitrusboere, groenteboere… daar’s nog baie! Wat Vlieg die laaste tyd baie vermaak, is wat hy noem bediendekamerboere! Nee, nee, nee! Dis nou nie die boere waaroor Vlieg vroeër berig het wie se bakkies so olie lek in die nag op sypaadjies en sy buurman se tuinhekkie so laat oop- en toegaan op pad na die bediendekamer toe nie. Dis die boere wat in die dorp in bediendekamers bly en so in die parkies, padreserwes en op die sypaadjies met mielies, pampoene en marog boer. Wat vir Vlieg sy pot se deksel is, is dat die munisipale grassnyers wat so eenmaal voor ‘n verkiesing oor die sypaadjies gestoot word, hierdie landerye heeltemal missny. Vlieg wonder of hy nie dalk die aankondiging gemis het dat alle sypaadjies as deel van grondhervorming aan huisbediendes gegee is nie. Klink vir Vlieg nie regtig na grondrestitusie nie, maar eerder na grondprostitusie!

Highest award for Haenertsburg Police RIGHT: The trophy that was awarded to the Haenertsburg Police for their dedicated efforts to render a support service in the community. BELOW are Const Shingange and Capt Winnie Nkosi, the commanding officer of the Haenertsburg police.

Highest award to village police in Haenertsburg

Susan Ettmayr The Haenertsburg Police, under the command of Capt Winnie Nkosi, has received the platinum award, the highest award possible in Limpopo for best support service. The Premier’s Excellence Service Award comes with R100, 000 cash. They won the award for their involvement in the area and its people — in particular for starting up a Victim Empowerment Centre, known as Haenertsburg VEP. St Vincent de Paul and the Magoebaskloof Bowling Club donated substantially towards this worthy cause. Const Shingange, directly responsible for VEP, has been instrumental in its ongoing organisation, aided by volunteers Mss Maria Matlago and Maphale Modiba. VEP will be upgraded with an ablution block and an examination room for the doctor. The front office will also be upgraded and the floors tiled. A mentally challenged 60 year-old man in Maribathema is living in dire conditions. The money will enable the police to build him a wooden house, with lockable door and furniture. Money will now also be available to buy a school uniform for a 16 year-old girl at Driehoek School. The police will also look at upgrading the farm road numbering system in the area.

Tweede wenner van Coke Zero & Bulletin se toekenning vir uitstaande diens

Mnr Dawie le Roux, die eienaar van Tiger Wheel & Tyre in Tzaneen (en ook eienaar van verskeie ander besighede in die dorp) is Maart se wenner van Coke Zero & Bulletin se toekenning vir uitstaande diens (Excellence Service Award). Le Roux het sy hele werkwinkel op ‘n besige dag tot stilstand gebring en sy personeel gelas om te soek na die “center cap” van ‘n klant se motor se een wiel. Alhoewel dit ‘n byna nietige dingetjie is, het Le Roux geweier om op te gee en was die klant se tevredenheid vir hom die belangrikste. Die klein doppie is deesdae die naaste wat mens aan ’n naafdop kry by aluminium-allooi-wiele. Op die foto regs is ‘n wiel waarvan die doppie juis weg is. Hier is Megan Viljoen, ‘n bemarker van die Bulletin wat die toekenning vir uitstaande diens geïnisieer het, mnr Coenie Scheepers van Coke, Le Roux en Jean Aucamp, die redakteur van die Bulletin. Inwoners van ons Laeveld-streek word elke maand genooi om mense wat uitstaande diens lewer, te benoem. Dit kan sakelui wees, amptenare in die openbare sektor, werkers in gemeenskapsdiensorganisasies of liefdadigheidsorganisasies.

Another four rhino poached Following the rhino poaching in January in the Guernsey area outside Hoedspruit, another two rhino carcasses were discovered on a farm in the Gravelotte area and two more on Doreen Farm North of the Olifants River close to Phalaborwa. The carcasses at Doreen were found by Mr Fanie Steyn, a professional hunter (PH) who was in the veld on a buffalo hunt with a client. The rhino were shot on Thursday or Friday last week and the horns had been removed. On 1 April a Protrack patrol discovered the hornless carcass of a female white rhino on a farm in the Gravelotte area, along with another rhino carcass the following day, which still had its horns. Both rhino had been caught in snares. What the anti-poaching unit noted as being out of the ordinary, was that both rhino had been in the snares for only about a day and a half to two days at most. “Normally a poacher sets his snares and only comes back after four or five days to check if something has been caught. We believe what happened is that the poacher came back and found the first animal semi-conscious but still alive and then killed it with an axe blow to the side of the head,” says Mr Vincent Barkas, the owner of Protrack. ‘n Groep vriende wat haar na aan die hart lê, het saam met me Lappies Labuschagne van Tzaneen haar 97ste verjaarsdag gevier. Sy

is bederf met geskenke en pragtige blomme en wil haar liefde aan almal oordra wat dit bygewoon het. Sy het ook ‘n pragtige ruiker van die Hervormde Kerk se Tzaneen-gemeente en een van die gemeente se Sustersvereniging ontvang. Die gemeente se predikant, ds Richard van der Westhuizen, en ds Henk Joubert, die vorige leraar, het ook die verjaarsdag van dié bekende vrou van Tzaneen bygewoon.

“The most significant feature of the Gravelotte rhino is that the animals were not shot. I believe syndicates are now approaching regular people from the local communities to tackle rhino,” says Barkas. He also believes that snare poachers are now turning to rhino poaching and says that this situation opens a new “can of worms”. “When there is a firearm involved it can be traced back to a person or a crime and an arrest can be made, but anybody has access to a piece of cable and can set a snare. A piece of wire around an animal’s head does not leave us with much to build a case on,” Barkas said. According to Mr Faan Coetzee, project executive of the Rhino Security Project at the Endangered Wildlife Trust, this is the first time that a rhino is poached with a snare in Limpopo, although there have been various such cases in KwaZulu Natal. These four killings bring the number of rhino poached in South Africa in 2011 alone to 104. That is more than a rhino a day. LiN News/Kruger2Canyon

Me Anne-Marié Boersma van Tzaneen het kunssinniges van die omgewing met haar kunswerke tydens haar eerste solo skilderyuitstalling verras. Die uitstalling getiteld Nostalgie het onder meer ‘n reeks hoenderhane, ou plaashuise en verskeie pragtige meisies ingesluit. Dit was ‘n lewenslange droom van Boersma om te begin verf en toe sy ophou werk het, het sy begin werk aan haar droom. Alhoewel dit haar eerste solo skilderuitstalling is, is Boersma nie ‘n groentjie wat kuns betref nie. Sy doen ook loodglaswerk, pottebakkery, glaswerk en skilder nou ook al vir drie jaar.

Minder boere

Sedert 1994 het die getal komersiële boere in Suid-Afrika van 120 000 tot 37 000 afgeneem. Meer as 2 000 het die afgelope dekade elders gaan boer. Onbillike wetgewing, toenemende vakbond eise vir plaaswerkers, die koste van water en elektrisiteit, die vermindering van bewerkbare grond en grondhervorming word voorgehou as redes waarom boere na lande soos Mosambiek, Kongo (Brazaville), Botswana, Malawi, Lesotho, Zambië, Swaziland en nou ook Georgië trek.

Nuwe gesig vir LFPA Die nuutste personeellid van die Letaba Fire Protection Association (LFPA) is me Maritza Nel, die eerste heeltydse skakelbeampte wat deur die organisasie aangestel is. Haar werk is om lede te werf, want net ongeveer 10% van die grondeienaars en boere in die omgewing behoort aan die LFPA. Sy gaan ook die LFPA bemark en verteenwoordig op alle vlakke. Nel is ‘n oud-joernalis wat in ‘n stadium ook by die Bulletin gewerk het. Foto: Retha Nel

KFC is good for your kids And it has nothing to do with chicken! Beaunice Machitela The children’s prayer group of Tzaneen Primary School — KFC (Kids for Christ) — recently organised a special outreach project for the staff. “We would like to show the teachers how special they are to us, and who can do it better than the writer of Psalms, King David?” said one of the pupils jokingly. This outreach was part of a national movement called Firetrails, where various prayer groups, churches, outreach programs and individuals hold hands high to God’s name. The KFC group at Tzaneen Primary started over a year ago and pupils meet every Wednesday during first break in Ms Leona Krog’s class. Whether singing about God or learning about a Bible verse, the main goal is to bring the word to children in a cool and funky way, so they feel inspired to build a personal relationship with God. The organisers of this group are caring mothers and friends who have a place in their hearts for the school, teachers and pupils. The group meets on Monday mornings and intensively pray for the school. Requests for prayers can be send by anonymous e-mail to KFClaerskooltzn@gmail.com. KFC also held a doughnut-day and every member of the prayer group could bring a friend to the social event for a treat. Whether it was a lot of homework, an unfair judgement or a busy after-school schedule, the pupils of the school are being enfolded in prayer, whether they know it or not. The KFC group is open to pupils in Gr 1 to Gr 7. This is for anyone who wants to journey in God’s greatness with the group, said one of the caring mothers.

Ds Barry vd Merwe • NG Kerk Letsitele Vrydag 08 April 2011

Bouers is vernielsugtig Wat gaan aan in die afdelings van die Groter Tzaneen Munisipaliteit wat bouers en ander kontrakteurs se werk moet nagaan? En wat gaan aan met betrekking tot die nagaan van omgewingimpakstudies en al die ander prosesse wat hiermee gepaard gaan? Daar gaan niks aan nie! Of bitter min en daar sit mense wat beslis nie die kennis het om die prosesse te monitor en te bestuur nie. Dit is so duidelik soos daglig. In Tzaneen is geen respek meer vir vleie, fonteine en wateraflope nie. Winkelsentrums, woongebiede en die storting van bourommel en ander vulmateriaal word sonder enige respek vir die omgewing na willekeur toegelaat. Voorskrifte en voorwaardes wat gestel word, word gewoon geminag. Inspeksies word duidelik nie uitgevoer nie, of dit is onkundige inspekteurs wat nie weet waarna en waarvoor hulle moet kyk nie. Daar kan selfs korrupsie wees, dat amptenare omgekoop word om maar net weg te kyk as die oortreders hul gang gaan. In die proses word kosbare vleie, strome en fonteine in en om die dorp stadig maar seker versmoor onder vulmateriaal en rommel van ontwikkelaars wat nie ‘n duit omgee nie. Dit is ‘n tragiese toedrag van sake en dit behoort die dringende aandag van die gemeenskap te geniet. As die dorp maar net ‘n sakekamer gehad het wat minder in die maandelikse spys-en-drankvergaderings belang gestel het en meer aandag aan die dorp se vooruitgang (dalk eerder agteruitgang) geskenk het, kon dit gehelp het. As Tzaneen se apatiese gemeenskap maar net die moed bymekaar kon skraap om ‘n effektiewe belastingbetalersvereniging op die been te kry en aan die gang te hou, sou daar minder vinger gewys kon word en meer resultate tot voordeel van die dorp en breër gemeenskap sou behaal gewees het. Stap vir stap gaan ons omgewing agteruit. Die minagting waarmee die ekologiesensitiewe Letabariviergebied bejeën word en die laksheid om op te tree teen die verwoesters, skrei ten hemele. Soos met verskeie ander sake sal Tzaneen ook met die skade wat aan die omgewing aangerig word, te laat wakker skrik en sal ons met ‘n onomkeerbare ramp sit en tevergeefs om vleisbraaivure skinder en kla.

Tongknopers Welvaart, welsyn en welstand: Welvaart is gelyk aan ekonomiese voorspoed.Welsyn is ‘n algemener begrip wat wel matige welvaart, gesondheid en gerieflike persoonlike omstandighede insluit, en ook in die betekenis van “maatskaplike werk” of “liefdadigheid” gebruik word. Welstand slaan in die eerste instansie op iemand se gesondheid. Welaf is nie so lekker nie; gebruik eerder ryk, welgesteld, welvarend, vermoënd of goed daaraan toe of sit goed daarin.

Ai tog Roy Hurter van Tzaneen skryf: Wat ‘n rooi-gesig-ervaring is dit nie om my broer uit die buiteland op hul eerste dag in ons pragtige land, te ontvang net na hulle rot en kaal besteel is nie. Die wrang smaak van die gebeurtenis verdoof die goeie en mooi stories en die natuurskoon wat aan hulle voor gehou was in totaal. Maar laat ek by die begin, begin. Dis hul eerste besoek aan die Limpopo en die familie beplan vir hoelank die rit deur Botswana vanaf Namibie. “Oppas in Botswana vir die verkeerspolisie en “bribes”, was my woorde. Maar die rit verloop sonder enige gebeurtenis en hulle kom veilig in Swartruggens aan. Die volgende oggend vertrek hulle na Tzaneen en stop by die Nyl Plaza vir koeldrank ens. En dis waar die storie suur word! My broer moet geld trek en gaan na die outoteller waar die masjien sy kaart uitspoeg, met die eerste probeerslag. Daar staan ‘n man wat aanbied om te help, “want die masjien maak partykeer so”.

Ons Hurters is van nature goed gelowig en hy laat die Samaritaan toe om hom te help. En wraggies, daar trek Ouboet geld en alles

is “a-for-away”. Tot die volgende oggend.”You have exceeded your daily limit” laat weet die outoteller in Tzaneen hom. En dit nog voor hy kon geld trek! ‘n Oproep na die bank in Windhoek lewer niks konkreets op nie asook ‘n besoek aan die plaaslike tak van die bank is sonder antwoorde. En so gaan dit die hele week tot Saterdagoggend. “Meneer, jou spaar- en tjekrekeninge toon ‘n NUL-balans” laat weet hulle uit Namibië. En hier kom die skoknuus: Die Samaritaan het Ouboet se kaart gekloon en hom van sy spaar- en tjekgeld verlos! Ek wil nie eers praat van die gebeure by die plaaslike SAPD nie, dis ‘n storie vir ‘n ander dag. Hoekom vertel ek hierdie storie? Vir één rede alleen: Die Samaritaan by die outoteller moet maar soos die Samaritane van die Bybel se tyd vermy word. Ten minste behou jy jou geld en waardigheid.

Ons boere trek, maar dis nie doodsake Sedert 1994 het die getal kommersiële boere in Suid-Afrika van 120 000 tot 37 000 afgeneem. Daar word bepaal dat meer as 2000 boere die afgelope dekade die land verlaat het om elders te gaan boer. Onbillike wetgewing, toenemende vakbond eise vir plaaswerkers, die koste van water en elektrisiteit, die vermindering van bewerkbare grond en grondhervorming word voorgehou as redes waarom boere na lande soos Mosambiek, Kongo (Brazzaville), Botswana, Malawi, Lesotho, Zambië, Swaziland en nou ook Georgië trek. Landbou-unies is verder ook bekommerd dat die nuwe verblyfregwet selfs meer boere uit die land sal dryf. Dr Theo de Jager, die adjunk-president van Agri-SA, is egter nie bekommerd oor die groot getal boere wat vandag elders boer nie. “Dit is ‘n wêreldwye tendens dat grense oopgestel word en dat boere ‘n produk verbou waar dit die mees winsgewend is. Ek voorspel dat piesangs byvoorbeeld binne die volgende paar jaar nie meer in SuidAfrika verbou sal word nie, maar wel op groot skaal in Mosambiek omdat die omstandighede en klimaat die piesangbedryf

in Mosambiek baie winsgewend maak. Die vraag is wie daar gaan boer — boere uit Suid-Afrika of boere uit China?” “Voedselsekerheid gaan nie oor wat jy alles self kan produseer nie, dit gaan oor wat jy mededingend kan produseer. Wêreldwyd sien ons dat lande soos Duitsland en Spanje nie meer plaaslik sitrus en tee verbou nie. Dit is vir hulle meer winsgewend om dit in te voer,” sê De Jager. Hy voorspel dat daar binne die volgende twee dekades slegs 5 000 boere in Suid-Afrika sal wees. “Tegnologie maak dit vandag moontlik om op ‘n baie groot skaal te boer. Vandag se 37 000 boere produseer meer landbouprodukte as die 120 000 van die vroeë 90’s.” De Jager glo dat ‘n land se winsgewende boerderye beskerm moet word, sodat ander voedselsoorte wat nie meer winsgewend verbou word nie ingevoer kan word. “Wildboerdery in Suider-Afrika is so ‘n voorbeeld — 80% van alle wild word in Suid-Afrika gejag, en dit is veral Limpopo wat ‘n belangrike rol speel. Dié R6 miljardbedryf maak voorsiening vir die invoer van byvoorbeeld koffie en tee wat daagliks deur Suid-Afrikaners geniet word,” sê hy.

Op 5 Februarie 2006 is Andrea Santoro, `n Katolieke priester, in Trabzon Turkye, vermoor terwyl hy in die kerk gebid het. By geleentheid het Santoro gesê: “Ek is hier om tussen hierdie mense te lewe en om Jesus hier deur my te laat lewe omdat ek myself tot sy beskikking stel... Die verlossing word deel van jou wanneer jy jouself gee. Die kwaad van hierdie wêreld moet gedra word en die pyn moet gedeel word deur dit op te neem in jou eie liggaam soos Jesus gedoen het.” Min het die priester geweet hóé letterlik hy die kwaad en pyn van hierdie wêreld in sy eie liggaam sou dra. Gedurende lydenstyd dink ons daaraan dat Jesus mens geword het, óns liggaam aangeneem het om die pyn te kom dra. Kom ons gee onsself, ook ons liggaam, vir Hom sodat Hy só in die wêreld teenwoordig kan wees en die wêreld die verlossing wat Hy gebring het kan sien en ervaar. Mooi naweek!

Die mense hoor Let wel: hulle sê nie so nie! • Dis lelik as die finansiële adviseur se skuldeisers so sukkel dat hulle moet begin dreig om te boks. Die manne is ver verby lou; hulle is behoorlik rooi onder die kraag, hoor die mense... • Wie sou nou kon gedink het ‘n blote waarskuwing dat ‘n mosie van wantroue ingestel kan/sal word, ‘n man so vinnig sal laat reageer. Maar as besigheid ‘n Conkoksie word, dan kan dit so gebeur… • Ou Smiley, jy weet mos nou al nie almal swymel voor jou sjarme nie. Jy kan sommige van die mense soms bluf, maar jy kan nie almal die heeltyd bluf nie. Of jy nou die “ding” lees en of jy dit nou nie lees nie, maak geen verskil aan jou skelmstreke en die gewetenloosheid waarmee jy lieg nie. Dalk is dit deel van jou beroep om Controversieel te wees. Probleem is mense sê nou al prontuit jou “sell by” datum het reeds opgekom en jou raklewe raak kort… • Daar kan dalk lelike goed uitspring as mens nou ‘n flip in die bos gooi, veral omdat die “big daddy” se rekord so sleg lyk…

Onwaardige laaste rusplek is ’n skande

Ook ontoeganklik

Modjadjiskloof se begraafplaas het die afgelope tyd in ‘n gehawende toestand verval, met gras, struike en onkruid wat dele van grafte heeltemal toegegroei het. Etlike grafte is vervalle en slordig, wat daarop dui dat onderhoud aan die begraafplaas duidelik jare agterweë gebly het. Die foto hierbo en die een verste links wys duidelik hoe bosse en onkruid die terrein oorgeneem het. In baie gevalle is grafte nie eens sigbaar tussen die lang gras en bosse nie. Op die foto hiernaas is die muur van herinnering waar die as-oorskot van mense in nisse in die muur bewaar kan word. Die muur is egter ongebruik, moontlik omdat mense so teleurgesteld is met die toestand van die begraafplaas, dat hulle nie hul naasbestaandes daar wil laat begrawe of hul as daar wil laat bewaar nie. Mense vind ook die beeld van die vrou wat prominent daar opgerig is, in swak smaak en sê dit herinner eerder aan Hollywood... Links bo is die toegangspad na die begraafplaas. Die pad is plekplek so onbegaanbaar dat dit haas ontoeganklik vir gewone tweetrekmotors is. Foto’s: Louis Roux

Tzn-brandweerman was een van rampslagoffers

Mnre Deon en AJ van Vuuren

Louis Roux ‘n Gesoute paramedikus van Tzaneen was een van drie Suid-Afrikaners wat Maandag in ‘n vliegongeluk in die Demokratiese Republiek van die Kongo (DRK) omgekom het. Mnr Petrus Jacobus van Vuuren (40), onder familie en vriende bekend as Parra, was in diens van die maatskappy Mechem, ‘n afdeling van Denel wat onder meer landmyne opspoor en vernietig. Net een van die 33 passasiers het die vliegongeluk oorleef, toe die Bombardier Canadair CRJ-100 straler van die Verenigde Nasies (VN) in slegte weer op die N’djili-lughawe in

Kinshasa neergestort het. Petrus was die broer van mnre Deon en AJ van Vuuren, brandweermanne van Tzaneen. Hy was ‘n oud-Vossie en kom uit ‘n brandweergesin. Sy pa, Andries, en Deon se tweelingbroer, Dawid, is twintig jaar gelede in ‘n motorongeluk naby Moria op slag dood. Hulle was albei in diens van die brandweer in Polokwane. Mnr AJ van Vuuren sê Mechem het die nuus van sy broer se dood Dinsdagoggend aan hulle oorgedra. Hy was na Kinshasa onderweg om mediese dokters te gaan evalueer en sou daarna ‘n EOD-kursus in die hantering van springstowwe ondergaan. “Hy was ‘n eerlike en geharde mens wat sy dienste as paramedikus in verskeie Afrika-lande ingespan het. Hy het onder meer in die Soedan, die Kongo en Eritrea gewerk en was in die Ivoorkus die VN se brandweerhoof in Afrika.” Hy was sedert Januarie vanjaar deel van Mechem se ontmyningspan in Kisangani in die noorde van die DRK. Mechem sal sorg dat sy oorskot van die DRK na Suid-Afrika gebring word, maar die proses kan tot drie weke duur. Eers dan sal die familie begrafnisreëlings kan tref. Mnr AJ van Vuuren sou volgende week as paramedikus en brandweerkenner na Djibouti vertrek het, maar het sy besluit na die

Wyle mnr Petrus van Vuuren

dood van sy broer en op aandrang van sy familie gekanselleer. Hy het ‘n hondetelery by Polokwane. “Ek, Deon en my ma Tiekie is geskok oor sy dood en gaan hom baie mis, maar ons sal voortgaan met ons werk as brandweermanne in murg en been.”

Gravelotte het weer ‘n poskantoor Louis Roux Gravelotte se status styg vandag met ‘n groot sprong wanneer ‘n volwaardige poskantoor in die dorp geopen word. Dit gaan verligting bring aan talle bejaardes in en om die dorp wat nie meer na Phalaborwa of Letsitele hoef te ry om hul maandelikse pensioengeld te gaan kollekteer nie, terwyl sakeondernemings

van Gravelotte nou ook regstreekse toegang tot posgeriewe sal hê. Die dorp het jare gelede ‘n poskantoor gehad, maar dit het verval weens die hoë huurkoste van die Telkom-gebou wat dit gehuisves het. Nou is die gebou opgeknap en met personeel toegerus om die gebied met volledige dienste te voorsien. Een van die groot dryfvere agter die herlewing van die poskantoor is die Leydsdorp boerevereniging, wat die afgelope ses jaar onverpoosd gespook het om die poskantoor weer aan die gang te kry. Dit is langs die Piet Warren-meeldepot in die dorp en maklik bereikbaar vir al die inwoners.

Sonkrag vir Limpopo ‘n Sonkragaanleg met ‘n opwekkingsvermoë van 60 MW word in die omgewing van Vivo beoog, aansienlik meer as die huidige kragverbruik van Louis Trichardt en omstreke, wat sowat 40 MW beloop. Die Soutpan Sonkragpark word beoog op

500 hektaar en is een van minstens drie soortgelyke hernubare kragopwekkingsaanlegte. Die ander twee aanlegte wat beplan word, is Witkop (30 MW) by Thabazimbi en Delta (30 MW) by Lephalale. LiN Nuus/Zoutpansberger

Die treurmare van die padlose inwoners by Weltevrede in Georges Valley duur voort, nadat die soveelste teenspoed kontrakteurs van die Groter Mopani Distriksmunisipaliteit verhinder het om Januarie se stormskade in die gebied te herstel. Dié kruiptrekker staan steeds sonder diesel, terwyl sy operateur en nog twee werkers ‘n bakkie moes leen om hul lone in Giyani te gaan haal. Hulle sou vroeg in dié week terug wees, maar het

nog nie opgedaag nie. Intussen moet mnr Hilton Atherstone en sy vrou Liza hul produkte teen groot koste stuk vir stuk met ‘n ompad na leweransiers vervoer, terwyl nog ‘n inwoner, mnr Martin Petersen, se voertuig op die vrot ompad gebreek het. Sy vrou is al dae van haar werk in Tzaneen afwesig, omdat sy nie vervoer het nie. Die inwoners gaan vandag nog die Limpopo-regering nader, om ‘n oplossing vir die sloerende gemors te kry.

Lekker pryse vir jagters Vir slegs R100 per kaartjie is daar groot pryse te wen met die Nederduitsch Hervormde Gemeente Tzaneen se jagkompetsie. Die eerste prys is ‘n eland, twee rooibokke, twee nagte verblyf vir twee jagters en twee

Reën kortwiek 4x4’s Swaar reën word vir volgende naweek in en om Tzaneen voorspel, wat die viertrek-mense laat besluit het om die 4x4-byeenkoms van 16 April tot 16 Julie uit te stel. Een van die organiseerders, mnr Hannes Enslin, sê die verwagte nat weer kan die byeenkoms erg ontwrig en deelnemers in vele opsigte kortwiek. Teen 16 Julie sal die reënseisoen verby wees.

Tzn Cycling Club to host Challenge The Magoebaskloof Challenge, one of the oldest and best known mountain bike races in Limpopo, will be hosted by the Tzaneen Cycling Club this year. Thanks to the new main sponsor, Fairview Hotel, the race is now called the Fairview Hotel Magoebaskloof Road and Mountain Bike Challenge. The Tzaneen area is known as a true mecca for mountain bike racing and due to popular demand, the Magoebaskloof Challenge now also includes a MTB race. This year there will be a road race on 14 May and a MTB race on 15 May. Due to road works in the area the route for 2011 has been slightly altered. The Fairview Hotel will be the starting and finishing point for the road race. The MTB race will start and finish at Merensky High School. The road race consists of a 70 km and 45 km route. A fun-ride for the kids will also be held. The MTB race consists of a 40 km and 20 km route. The 40 km route has something for everyone — great climbs and down hills, singletrack and jeep track, winding through the plantations around the Magoebaskloof Dam. Plenty of food and drink will be on sale. Loads of good prizes as well as lucky draws make this a challenge not to be missed. The Fairview Hotel Magoebaskloof Road and MTB Challenge is the only race presented by the Tzaneen Cycling Club and promises to be of the highest standard. For more information on accommodation and on-line entries go to www.cyclelab.com or contact Piet Roode on 082 457 0570.

Die gewilde Woensdag-gholfreeks van Sugarloaf/Ruto Mills by die Tzaneen gholfklub het pas ten einde geloop, met die goeie nuus dat die twee borge die toernooi vir die res van die jaar sal borg. Die wenner van die eindronde was Wally Steenkamp met 38 punte, tweede was Allan Bissett met 34 punte en in die derde plek was Tom van der Westhuizen met 32 punte.. Die wenner van die nie-kwalifiserende spelers was Wallie Coetzee met 36 punte. Deur die afgelope jaar het die borge elke laaste Woensdag van die maand die kompetisie geborg en die wenners het uiteindelik in die eindronde om die titel meegeding. Die kompetisie is op die been gebring om plaaslike gholfspelers op Woensdae die geleentheid te gee om die gholfklub te benut. Mnre Lino de Carvalho (Sugarloaf) en Paul Engelbrecht (Ruto Mills) het met lof gepraat van die goeie ondersteuning en onderneem om die kompetisie weer te borg. Op een Woensdag het ‘n rekordgetal spelers in die klub se geskiedenis opgedaag, toe 87 mense vir die kompetisie aangemeld het.

Fietsryklub gaan van krag tot krag Die Tzaneen Fietsryklub het nog ’n mylpaal bereik. Die honderdste lid het sedert hul onstaan in Januarie 2010 aangesluit. Die klub het met 28 lede begin en het aanvanklik aan die behoeftes van padfietsryers voldoen, maar al hoe meer bergfietsryers het aangesluit. Vandag word ryers aan hul heldergroen en -rooi hemde geken en is hulle daagliks op paaie in en om Tzaneen te sien. Die klub het ook vinnig onder ander dorpe se fietsryers bekend geraak en is vandag ook bekend vir hul geesdrif. Vir die eerste keer word die jaarlikse Magoebaskloof ChalREGS: Dorothy Rood en Monica Roode wens Hein Wagner op die regte Tour de France-styl geluk as 100ste lid van die klub.

Tzn se skopboksers is weer tops Die Tzaneen Skopboksklub het onlangs aan die Great North-toernooi in Pretoria deelgeneem en weer eens uitstekend gevaar.

Angelique Ellis het die tweede plek in die ligte kontak- en semi kontakafdeling behaal.

This week’s fitness tip Ettienne van Wyngaardt (Fitness specialist)

It’s time to start eating a healthy breakfast, and why not start with oatmeal. This hot cereal is high in fiber and low on the glycemic index, which means it fills you up and takes a long time to digest. Research has shown that diets high in slow burning carbohydrates like oatmeal suppress the hunger hormone grehlin more effectively

than diets high in fat. In fact, when you eat oatmeal for breakfast, you may find that your appetite is lower at lunchtime. Steel-cut or rolled oats digest slower than the “instant” variety, so it’s worth taking a few extra minutes in the morning to prepare you breakfast the oldfashioned way.

Hockey stars earn colours The first boys’ and girls’ hockey teams of Stanford Lake College attended a five day hockey clinic in Potchefstroom recently and are this season set to take on their Limpopo opponents with confidence. The boys won five of their six matches, losing to Menlopark in the final match. The girls won three, drew one and lost two matches. A total of 35 teams attended the clinic. The training sessions were intense and the players acquired new skills that will make them very competitive in this season’s league. After having competed in the Limpopo trials, ten players reaped the rewards of their hard work and were chosen for Lim- ABOVE: Ten boys of Stanford Lake College popo teams.
