GOD BLESS The Baronet and the Matabele King The Intriguing Story of the Tati Concession By David Hilton-Barber The Baronet of the title is Sir John Swinburne, a British aristocrat and Liberal politician. And the the Matabele King was Lobengula, exceedingly well-made, corpulent, with a commanding presence, and when in a good temper, having a kind heart and a full appreciation of humour. Tati was the scene of the first gold rush in Southern Africa. This forgotten corner of the sub- continent encapsulates a chapter of our history involving five countries, powerful men, much subterfuge, a botched invasion, a rebellion, land annexation, prospectors, hunters, traders and adventurers. It is a story begging to be told. The book describes the characters involved, the missionary Robert Moffatt, the explorers Henry Chapman and artist Thomas Baines; the hunters, Selous , Hartley and others, and the gold miners, Samuel Edwards and Daniel Francis. The founding kingdom of the Amandabele comes into the picture, as does the land of Chief Khama and the Bamangwato. Tati lay in the path of Cecil Rhodes's dream of a continuous tract of British imperialism from Cape to Cairo. Close by is Tuli where the Pioneer Column crossed over the Limpopo en route to Mashonaland. The annexation of Bechuanaland was a direct result of the conflicts between the tribes within the area and the threats from President Kruger and from Germany which had recently colonised Angra Pequena.

Two days of extreme, safe and exhilarating activities for the whole family.... and we haven't left out the more laid-back folks! Enjoy a feature packed arts, music and entertainment program running at the outdoor amphitheater. For the little guys we've got the KidZone - with mini-zipline, foam pit, inflatables, pony & tractor rides, and much more. But the meat of the festival is the adventure sports! Try your hand at rock climbing, safely harnessed under instructor supervision, brave the mega-zipline if you dare, traverse the tree-tops on the canopy trail, or try your acrobatic skills on the bunji-tramp! There'll be slack-lines for beginners, a daredevil high-wire demonstration, a horizontal bunji competition, and a multi-point geocache hunt with treasure at the end! For the fitness enthusiasts, break out the bike for an off-road MTB race, or lace up your trail- runners for a scenic trail run/walk though some parts of the dams we bet you've never seen before! Loads of prizes to be won throughout the weekend. Wind down at the end of the day with a canoe paddle on the top dam, catch a sunset concert and then settle down at the amphitheater for a fire show, and a screening of some of the most incredible extreme sports documentaries you've ever seen - athletes at the top of their game. There will be plenty food, drinks and stalls, as well as security, an ambulance and a first-aid station to ensure you have a safe, secure and fun-filled event. Take your festival experience to the next level by bring the whole family camping for the weekend - enjoy the magic of the bush, right here in town! Which brings us to the reason for the festival - the Hillside Dams Conservancy, well-know and well-loved by the Bulawayo community. Hillside Dams is THIRSTY, and needs an upgrade to the irrigation system to get the lawns and gardens green, ablutions at the top dam so we don't have so far to waddle for a widdle, and beefed up security so we can continue to play in a safe environment. 80% of funds raised will be ploughed straight into these projects, to make the Dams a better place for our community - fundraising by Byo, for Byo! So come on down folks, it's going to be huge! Make sure you keep this weekend free, and get ready for RAW to Rock/Air/Water your world! Watch this space as more details will be posted soon !

Dear friend of Bulawayo Help Network and all other caring citizens of Bulawayo. We are fast approaching Christmas which traditionally is a time of caring. We encourage you to join with BHN as we seek to ensure that as many pensioners as possible enjoy something special at Christmas. There are a number of pensioners in their private homes whom we help. Mrs Jan Marillier will be responsible for distributing donations to them. There are also the poorer retirement homes namely Ralstein House, Entembeni, Ekuphumuleni and Bartley Block whom we will support with this initiative. Mrs Di Charsley will ensure donations are evenly spread out. The other retirement homes receive outside support at this time of year and have the capacity to give something extra. You will become aware of bins placed in a number of supermarkets into which you can place items for consumption. There are also 'Hungry Mouths' waiting for your cash donations. If you feel you have the capacity to give more, please make out a cheque to BHN or you can make a bulk donation.

PAB AND THE ACADEMY GOLDFINGER Thursday 24 October in the Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m. Bond is back and his next mission takes him to Fort Knox, where Auric Goldfinger and his henchman are planning to raid Fort Knox and obliterate the world economy. To save the world once again, Bond will need to become friends with Goldfinger, dodge killer hats and avoid Goldfinger's personal pilot, the sexy Pussy Galore. She might not have feelings for Bond, but will 007 help her change her mind? Admission: $3.00 [free to Film Members] VERDI: DON CARLOS Friday 25 October Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m. 'Verdi Month' ends with a 1996 all-star production of the original French version of Verdi's epic five-act opera, Don Carlos. First produced in 1867, it was written for Paris on the grandest scale and suffered cuts even before its first performance. Because of the three-and-a-half-hour running time, most subsequent productions have made further substantial cuts so this version provides a rare opportunity to see what many claim to be Verdi's greatest opera in its entirety. Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members]. Supper available during the interval MARTIN KASIK (PIANO) Tuesday 29 October Robert Sibson Hall at 7.30 p.m. [Promoted by Celebrity Subscription Concerts Harare - subject to approvals being granted] Martin Kasik ranks among the foremost Czech pianists of the present time and his visit to Zimbabwe is supported by the Czech Embassy to celebrate their National Day - which is 28 October. Naturally his programme includes the music of his native land with the first half featuring four Czech composers, and after the interval comes one of the most thrilling and technically demanding works in the entire repertoire, Mussorgsky's 'Pictures at an Exhibition' Admission: $10.00 / $5.00 [free to Red Carpet members and Academy students] THE BIRDS Thursday 31 October in the Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m. First released fifty years ago in 1963, 'The Birds' has been described as 'Hichcock's last unflawed film' and a 'genuinely disturbing thriller classic from the master of suspense'. Melanie Daniels, a wealthy San Francisco socialite, pursues a potential boyfriend to a small Northern California town but soon after her arrival the birds in the area begin to act strangely. A seagull attacks her as she is crossing the bay in a small boat, and soon birds of all kinds in increasing numbers begin to attack anyone they find out of doors with increasing viciousness... Admission: $3.00 [free to Film Members] WAGNER: GÖTTERDaMMERUNG Friday 1 November in the Robert Sibson Hall at N.B. 5.30 p.m. The final instalment of 'The Ring' in the outstanding cycle from Bayreuth.

At long last her vision and the hard work and dedication by all the staff at Riverside Stimulation Centre has been recognised! Thank You!! Sue Laurine Clarke suelaurine14@gmail.com 4) Condolences/In Memorium/Wreath Funds Shirley Hooley, much loved sister of Bruce McDonald, died last Saturday in Dorset after a long illness. Bruce brucem@netconnect.co.zw At a time like this words can never do adequate justice to personalities such as Mike. I don't ever remember having met Mike in the flesh but have come to know him, and made my opinions of him, through e-mail and skype contacts. I enjoyed these contacts with him and became attached to him with a considerable sense of friendship which had grown between us from his open genuineness, integrity and willingness to assist. I know that I shall miss his presence and my heart goes out to his family and friends for his loss. Mike - where ever you have gone, or go, take these words with you : "Li Hamba Guhle Mgane Wami".

SEPTEMBER 22, 2013 PAUL HUBBARD Project Manager, Matobo Rhino Initiative Trust World Rhino Day, September 22, dawned grey, cold and with a smattering of rain. The clouds matched our mood as we worried about what this meant for people being tempted to come out to the Matopos and take part in our activities aimed at raising money to continue our fence building project. After all who would want to get out of bed early in the morning in such bad weather? As it turned out, we needn't have worried. Bulawayo loves the Matopos and people came out by the score to support the Matobo Rhino Initiative Trust and the Rhodes Matopos National Park on the day. By the end of the day, over 350 people had come to Sandy Spruit Dam and shared the day with us, living this years' National Rhino Day motto, 'Rhino Leading the Charge Against Extinction'. Scores of riders took to their bikes, following an easy but scenic course laid out by Vaughan Elkington and the Lounge Lizards social biking club. Some people rode the course more than once! The majority of people opted for the fun 5km walk, some in awesome costumes that raised a few eyebrows and helped create a relaxed, fun atmosphere enjoyed by all. Good entertainment was provided by Fence Africa and National Fencing who each agreed to install 300 metres of fence along the road, actually building the fence on the day in front of the visitors. Their excellent work will now be seen by every visitor to the park and hopefully increase awareness of the work being done and the type of fence being built by the MRIT. People from the Badja area, to the south-west of the park came to provide assistance with building this section of the fence on the day and celebrate the existence of rhino in the area. Chief Nathisa, a trustee of the MRIT, sent his representative, Mr Sikosana to address the crowds and discuss the positive impact the construction of the fence has had in the western section of the park. Mr Oscar Nyathi gave an impassioned speech highlighting the positive aura of cooperation between the National Parks Authorities, the Matobo Rhino Initiative Trust and the local communities and other stakeholders. A highlight was the presence of Twalumba, the rhino made from recycled tin cans who was brought to the site by Swift by kind assistance from Environment Africa. Drums of Peace played at the close of the day for free, launching their 'Rhino Song' a fine piece of music that will hopefully be heard around Zimbabwe. Alison and Sarah Burton had created three delightful paintings of rhinos in the Matopos which were auctioned and raised enough money to pay for a kilometre of bonnox wire! The team of Andre van Rooyen, Violette Kee-Tui and John Eppel sponsored the printing of several canvasses showing off Andre's amazing photographs of the Matopos landscape. These were auctioned on the day by the ever- exuberant Mike Burns, and raised enough money to help install a kilometre of fence. By all measures, the event was a real success and has raised enough money to build and install at least another two kilometres of fence in the park. More importantly the fun day had other benefits: Increased awareness and promotion of the Rhino situation in the park. Demonstration to foreign donors and potential donors that the local community are making an effort to help. Increased the joint community spirit. Upgraded the Sandy Spruit site due to the repair of the ablution facilities, bush clearing and general clean up of the site. Fulfilling the request by the Rhodes Matobo Committee to put up a 'shop window' fence at the entrance to raise awareness for the general public. Recognition of major donors with new signage at the gate. These are real positives that sometimes get overlooked. As to facts and figures, we raised $5256 from gate takings as well as $954 from sponsorship. The art auction on the day raised $2450 for 6 pictures making for a total of $8760. Once expenses have been deducted, I think we cleared at least $6000 which is roughly enough for two kilometers of fencing installed in the park. So the day and activities achieved our aims and more thanks to the help and support of so many different people. The event was held with the full support and appreciation of the National Parks and Wildlife Management Authority and I would like to publicly thank them for their assistance and guidance during the day. For more information and pictures about the fun day and the fence project, please visit www.rhodesmatopos.com or like us on Facebook. 'Write To God' - Peace initiative: The Write to God initiative is a non-commercial, volunteer administered platform aimed at connecting people to God, It was initiated in Kenya 2012, prior to the country's election where the aim was to remove the anxiety and fear enabling the Kenyans to express themselves in calling on God to grant them a peaceful election, which was achieved. The success of the Kenyan experience led to the project spreading to other African nations such as Mozambique, Botswana and now in Zimbabwe. This initiative goes beyond age, race, gender, religion, or any other affiliation and aims to inspire the people of Zimbabwe to write a letter to God by December 2013. We are encouraging people to reflect and go deep within and express those emotions on paper so that it will benefit you as an individual making you feel lighter, less burdened, connecting with God and to inspire others into either writing their own letters or relating to what has been written. Furthermore, this initiative aims to unify Zimbabweans as one family under God, irrespective of how we address him. You can write on any paper, however for the duration of the project we have letter templates upon which one can write their letter provided at key collection points (see below for Byo points.) One can also use online channels like email, facebook, whatsapp and sms enabling all to write. People must state Private or Public when writing their letter and we will treat them accordingly. At the end of the project, we will invite leaders of all faiths together to sacrifice the letters collected.
