Thanks to Jenny and Koos of Wonderlings for hosting a most enjoyable evening. There were some 60 people there to enjoy an informative talk on the baboons in Rooiel. We did enjoy learning more about our troop and seeing the slide show which you can download or see Joselyn's presentation by clicking here. She has promised more in the future. Thanks also to Estelle and Margie and many others for the food and to Wolfgang for the Flag.
Click to see photos from the Spring Social evening. At the Winter Social evening in July, Rita Blake promised to send her manuscript Rooiels: A History and Other Stories. The version revised by Gerard is now out of print. But Rita's original version has now been loaded. Click on Ecology and History of Rooiels to read it on line, or download it. Thanks Rita. Go to Rooiels Chat for information on the Flute concert in Betty's Bay on 7th October. Tickets are R45 per person and are available at the Rooiels Village shop. The Camera team have been active retrieving photos and videos from the cameras of the Leopard, the baboons and a mongoose. You will get another email with those links as soon as they have all been collated. In the meantime here is one of the new photos with the Leopard sniffing a cat brush that fascinated him.

Get to know new neighbours and renew old acquaintances Spring social evening on Saturday. Come and join us, get to know your neighbours and new residents and celebrate as we hoist the Baboon flag once again to provide warnings to the community of baboon action. There will be a short slide presentation and talk by Joselyn Mormile who is researching the baboons in Rooiels. Wolfgang is setting up a Baboon Report book in the EcoCentre. We encourage you all to enter what has happened and when - both the good and the bad! It will also give you a reason to go into the EcoCentre - it really has so much useful information and interesting posters and displays. Bring your drinks and a glass and join us for sundowners - snacks will be provided at Wonderlings B&B (Klein Rooiels) at 5.30 on Saturday 10th September Joselyn will share some photos she has taken of the baboons in Rooiels and her experience here and elsewhere on living with baboons. There will be time for discussion and questions. And also, very important, time for "geselskap en kuier" and we would like as many as possible to be there. Please can you encourage your friends and neighours, and especially tell new people and those without email addresses. There are still quite a few Rooiels residents that are not yet on the email distribution list.
