Makgadikgadi Walk makes way for Epic

Friday, May 17, 2024 | 130 Views |

FRANCISTOWN: This year’s Makgadikgadi Pans Day Walk will take place from June 28 to July 2, which is an adjustment from being held during its traditional date being the President’s Day holidays.

The schedule is meant to avoid clashes with the popular Makgadikgadi Epic. Makgadikgadi Pans Walk started 20 years ago as part of the YCare Charitable Trust’s commitment to corporate social responsibility.

Since the inaugural pans walk which was held in 2003, different corporate institutions have participated in the walks annually to raise money for charity and to foster team work.
