Some people spend their weekends at the mall❗
Our members❓ They drive into the middle of nowhere to re-erect a solar panel, ensuring continued water supply for wildlife and communities ❗👌😊

The Land Rover Owners Namibia crew 🙆‍♂️🙅‍♂️🙋‍♂️🚙🚐 headed back to the remote Farmstead of De Rust near the Brandberg to finish what was started the previous weekend. With the concrete around the solar panel pole finally cured, it was time to get that toppled solar panel back to where it belongs to ensure the water 💦 keeps flowing for wildlife, livestock, and the people who call this incredible place home.

This isn't a new story either. Back in 2019, LRON sponsored and installed the solar-powered water 💧pump and panels that continue to provide one of life's greatest luxuries in the arid Damaraland, WATER.💦

This weekend's motto.

Because sometimes the best recovery 🚨 isn't a stuck vehicle ... it's rescuing a solar panel. ⛑

a well as:
Mission accomplished? ✅
Braai lit? ✅
Campfire stories told? ✅
Slept under a million stars? ✅
Land Rovers slightly dustier than before❓ Absolutely. ✅

If you're wondering 🤔 what a bunch of Land Rover Owners and friends do when they're not exploring Namibia... this is it❗

Not all heroes wear capes… some drive Land Rovers. 😉🚙

Last weekend, a dedicated team from Land Rover Owners Namibia (LRON), along with some helping hands, headed back to the remote Farmstead De Rust near the Brandberg, where in 2019, Land Rover Owners Namibia had sponsored and installed a water pump as well as solar panels, ensuring that wildlife, animals and residents had access to much needed water.

After a couple of issues with stolen or broken water pumps over the years, it is now the pole of the solar panel that needed attention.

Constant desert winds had the top-heavy solar panels dancing just a little too enthusiastically, eventually wearing away the galvanising at ground level until the pole finally gave up and took a 'nap'.

The good news? The toppled solar panels escaped without a scratch, and the pump simply carried on doing what it does best. Even lying flat on the ground, the panels soaked up enough Namibian sunshine to keep the water flowing and the dam full. Now that's dedication! ☀️💧

The repair crew is making sure history doesn't repeat itself by strengthening the installation, tidying up the plumbing, and fitting level switches to prevent water wastage.

And because no successful Land Rover mission is complete without a proper ending, the team wrapped it all up with a Braai (BBQ).

Because sometimes, the best adventures aren't about where the road ends… they're about making sure there's water when you get there.
