Uithourit weekend


This weekend was an awesome, yet long weekend as we worked the Uithourit. Its now the second time that Ive worked Uithourit and I enjoyed it this year even more than last year. It started on Thursday afternoon with our meeting with Tannie Antoinette to organize who would be working where the whole weekend. We had a long discussion about the events that would take place, what the plans were and where the first and second year students would work. My Friday started on the boys house road where we were fixing a fence that was run over by Giraffe, the first year students are really getting good at fixing fences, which made my job a little easier. From there I went to Dienshek to welcome all the participants in the Uithourit with their horses. It was fun to help Elani out with helping and welcoming guests to the farm.
Saturday morning was an early start, I was at work at 3 o clock on Saturday morning to help Justin out with filling holes on the routes for the Uithourit. It was freezing cold but it was worth it to ensure that the horses dont get injured. Unfortunately one horse still got seriously hurt during the course of the day. Other than that I was at Dienshek again with Elani to do guest welcoming.
