TGeorge Bush, the most experienced hunter, is leading the group of hunters
On the morning of December 11, 2021, the Aishalton group of hunters – led by George Bush, the most experienced hunter, Community Development Officer Manley Thomas and Councillors – left on motorcycles. They will most likely meet the hunters of surrounding villages of Shea, Maruranau, Awarewanau, Karaudarnau and Achiwib at some of the sacred hunti, ng and fishing grounds.
We can reminisce that the hunters of previous generations went on foot, then using bicycle. Our modern hunters will fortunately cover more grounds and bring back bulkier loads of food.
The women and remaining villagers will prepare farine, cassava bread and the various traditional drinks- Parakari, potato fly and fruit wines – for the upcoming festivities.
The entire village is praying for the hunters’ safe and successful return.
Toshao Michael has extended an open invitation to all for the Aishalton Christmas Luncheon which will be accompanied with games and much dancing until day-break.
