Dear Members,
According to the latest crime bulletin, JSRA, there has only been one burglary reported in the past month. We had an extended camping season due to the beautiful weather in May. I was in Jonkershoek last weekend and always enjoy the transition we experience in Jonkershoek with the beautiful autumn colours on the trees and the rest covering the ground. My wife found some edible mushrooms as well.
With winter upon us, our prayers are that we'll have lots of rain, remember Jonkershoek is still beautiful during this season, have a Blessed one.
Regards
René Bützer and the Jonkershoek Team. june / july 2018

PIGGY SHOOT: We had a long-time record attendance for juniors at this year’s Piggy Shoot! Almost a dozen juniors and a dozen ladies, as well as 24 men competed for the ham and sausages on a lovely autumn day at the WCSU range near Atlantis. Best Lady shooter was Margrit Kilchenmann with 49 points (out of 60), the men’s winner was Daniel Siegenthaler (57 – 3x10, 3x9) and best junior Christian Matusik with 50. The outright winner of the Piggy’s Tail Shoot was junior Madison Bützer, who would even have won with her 2nd and 3rd best shots! She also came 2nd in the main Piggy Shoot! Congratulations! We also had 5 shots standing at a 50 metre ‘gong’ or ‘swinger target’ for bragging rights. Juniors were permitted to shoot this event from the bench, and full scores were made by Theo Mahnke, Caitlin and Travis Goode, Rachel, Iris, Christian and Sarah Matusik. It was a truly enjoyable family day, with parents competing against their sons and daughters, and siblings against each other. Every competitor won a ham or sausage, with the lowest scorers earning a pig’s tail as compensation! Swiss Bratwurst, Cervelat and Fleischkaese with rolls and mustard were enjoyed by all. The top three results per category: Men Score Ladies Score Juniors Score Siegenthaler Dani 57 Kilchenmann Margrit 49 Matusik Christian 50 Sewell Eric 56 Bützer Bianca 46 Bützer Madison 45 Voegeli Ulrich 55 Schmid Karin 40 Matusik Rachel 44 ABSENDEN: On Friday 4 May almost 40 club members and guests attended the annual prize-giving dinner at the club. As has been the case over the last few years, Eric Fraser won most, namely seven of the competitions! Well done! Paul Schweizer gained the Metzgerstich ham and the Wymann Weinstich. Other double champs were Fridolin Lenz (F. Schweizer & Pres. Mettler Cup) and Gert Behrendt (Berner Oberland & Feldstich). The rest of the shoots were won by Fritz Kuhn (Bundesprogramm), Peter Hostettler (Appenzeller), Derek Ohland (Intertown) and Graham Butler won the year-end shoot, the Vier Hürden trophy sponsored by Thomas Henke. SHOOTING RANGES: We have received approval for the remainder of the year at the Navy’s Klawer range, but had to re-apply for permission to use the Military’s Good Hope range at Atlantis. The shoots were cancelled, and we will be advised when our application is approved. june / july 2018 Presi report
