Betty’s Bay Hack Report No 658

What a glorious way to celebrate 55 years of hacking in Betty’s Bay! The day was perfect; there were four new hackers, a strong Pringle Bay contingent and lots of the usual hackers. Thank you all!

It was a difficult hack as the Fynbos is thick and most of the Rooikrans could only be reached by cutting one’s way in and then crawling in to cut the offenders.

The tea was made by Merran Silberbauer, and the sandwiches by Jane Fearnhead. Thank you ladies. Penguin Place donated the bread- thank you!

The troops were:

John Benn, Tom Dreyer, Sue Fielden, Rosemary Fowkes, Jeannie Harning, Jan Joubert, Ulli Niemann, Willem Stiglingh, Natalie and Bernard van Wulven, John and Sue Weaver, Chris Geldenhuys, Sandi Todd, Richard Gould, Mike Begley, Nick Green, Jack Wixley
(welcome to the last two who came ‘out of the bush’ to join us – being house owners in the vicinity of the hack), Ed and James Silberbauer and Frik Potgieter.

The next Hack will be on Sunday the 4th of March 2018 at 8h30 next to The Crassula Hall in Crassula Drive off Porter Drive.
