| Algemeen Te midde van chaos regoor die wereld, het ons as jagters die voorreg om die stilte van die natuur te kan waardeer en vrede en skuiling kan vind teen die bedreiging daar buite. Nog ‘n nuwe jaar lê vir ons en loer en ons kan net spekuleer oor wat dit vir ons inhou. Oor 2022 wat nou byna verby is, kan ons net dankbaar wees vir die voorreg om deel te wees van ‘n organisasie wat mense inspireer om jagters en bewaarders van die natuur te wees. ‘n Geseënde Kerstyd aan julle almal. Vir diegene wat elders gaan vakansie hou, ens ons ‘n voorspoedige en veilige reis. Tuisblyers moet ook die rustyd geniet. Afsluiting Sowat 140 lede het in November ons laaste ledevergadering van 2022 bygewoon. Springbok-tak tel onder een van die voorste takke wat met ‘n beskeie begin gegroei het tot een van die Supertakke met meer as 1000 lede. Ons het ook die trofee ontvang vir Kampioen-tak met meer as ‘n duisend lede. Ons bedank ons lede vir hulle insette en ondersteuning om hierdie prestasie te behaal. Dankie ook aan die komiteelede vir hulle arbied en swoeg en sweet. Laastens, bedank ons elke personeellid by die nasionale kantoor wat ons bystaan en die Vereniging op koers hou. Die uitvoerende komitee het oor twee dae vergader en nuwe planne beraam vir die toekoms. Opleiding Gereelde opleiding word by elke skietdag aangebied. Lede kan Ronel by die takkantoor skakel om opleiding vir baanoffisiers en toegewyde jagters- en sportskutstatus te bespreek. Neem kennis dat die toegewyde jagterskursus gaan verander na ‘n een dag kursus teen koste van R650. Bewaring Dit gaan goed met ons bewaringsprojek en Operasie Grootoog gaan van krag tot krag met Lionel aan die stuur van sake. Dankie aan Judy vir haar raad en bystand. Skietaangeleenthede Dankie aan die skietspan vir julle deelname en die bydrae wat hulle lewer om die skietbane veilig te hou. Baanoffisiere werk soms oortyd om alles reg te kry en reg te hou. Die toenemende belangstelling in sportskiet en die MDS-dissiplines hou ons mense baie besig. Super Skins 2023 Onthou ons Super Skins op 4 Maart 2023. Inskrywingsvorms is beskikbaar by Ronel en Rozani. 46 kuts het reeds ingeskryf en 200 teikens is verkoop. Dankie aan die talle borge wat hulle reeds verbind het.
