CYCLE AND RUN WITH WORDS DURING THE

US WOORDFEES

 

On Sunday March 5 Coetzenburg near Stellenbosch will host mountainbike and fun run challenges called the Homecoming Velddtrap met Woorde: Ek skop stof op in my taal as part of the annual US Woordfees.

 

What makes the event different is that it commemorates Afrikaans by having participants run with words unique to the language. So are you TANDESTOKKIE or MOEGOE? BABBELAS or PARAAT? We celebrate the unique Afrikaans words that make our language so special.

 

After the race athletes will be able to participate in the conservation program. They will receive a spekboom and a handmade wire medal.
