Zululand: Regional Round Up
Master Builders KwaZulu-Natal’s Zululand Region held its annual golf day at RBCC and with weather playing its part and pristine course conditions, the day was an absolute hoot.

Attie Barrington won longest drive with Shaun Francis landing closest to pin.
In the past few months I have been attending several safety courses which are scheduled for completion towards the end of the year. The intension is to have somebody with the necessary safety qualifications on your doorstep, to provide assistance with minimal delay and turn around time. On the subject of safety, I remind members about the best practice safety audits and that if you do need help we are only a phone call away.
Whilst in the process of doing your safety audits, I will be updating your details and confirming your business activities to ensure that you are getting the best from the Association’s Find a Builder web module, so please bear with me and have your information ready.
We will be hosting a fishing competition over the last weekend of the month (29 & 30 May) at Meerensee Boat Club should you wish to participate, details are available from the regional office or boat club.
Belated congratulations to Francios and Pam on their recent engagement, we wish you all the very best. Over the next few months I will be covering local developments for uMhlatuze and immediate surrounding areas so watch this space.
