If you have any topics you would like to see covered in Kampala Eye magazine or on our web site, please drop me a line.

Rhino Stampede 2006

Rhino Stampede 2006

The next Rhino Stampede /4x4 Challenge is set for May 6, 2006. The event is organised and managed by the Rhino Fund of Uganda with technical support from On Course.
