Spotlight on Our Sponsor


"It's been said that you have not lived at all until you have experienced
the charm, mythical lure and sheer raw excitement of the African Bush"

In one of their native languages the word 'Thaba-Mahaka' means: The Mountain of the Vultures. This compliments the areas where they hunt. Most of there concessions are situated next to and around the Waterberg Mountain Range. Within this area you will find a huge variety of habitats from savannah grasslands, forest like areas, mountainous hillsides, and deep dark valleys with rivers to semi-deserts! You can find the Grey Ghost (Kudu), Impala, the very dangerous Bushbuck, Warthog and elusive Bushpig, Eland and Waterbuck in these areas. The magnificently fast & powerful Leopard is also to be found within these very areas. The list goes on and on...

Thaba Mahaka, owned and operated by Leon Small is a generous sponsor of the Kentuckiana Chapter. Chapter member Dr. Rick Pelphrey, son Rick, daughter Katie and friend Kelly Anderegg recently completed their first African Safari with Thaba Mahaka. Dr. Pelphrey was the lucky winner of the Thaba Mahaka Safari at KYSCI 2008 banquet- fundraiser. Read more about their adventure with Thaba Mahaka in this issue.
