==Round winners==
Congratulations to the winners of [[round 143]]: [[User:ZonerX|ZonerX]] from [[Region:Stockholm|Stockholm biked home his third [[Gold medal|Gold]], [[User:Drylaw13|Drylaw13]] from [[Region:Scotland|Scotland]] added a [[Silver medal|Silver]] to his previous two [[Bronze medal|Bronze]] – will the next medal be a [[Gold medal|Gold]] for him? [[User:cre8or|cre8or]] from [[Region:Västra Götaland|Västra Götaland]] had to turf home over 1 million [[points]] to secure a [[Bronze medal|Bronze]] this round.
Well done mates!
== [[Bonanza:Västervik 2022|Bonanza 2022]] ==
The World Cup in Turf took place in [[Municipality:Västervik|Västervik]] on the 21st of May, over 300 turfers came together and competed in two heats. 190 turfers took at least one Event zone in the Foot event and [[User:OdKing|OdKing]] from [[Region:Dalarna|Dalarna]] won [[Bonanza Gold|Gold]]. 145 turfers competed in the Bike event and it was a tight race to the very finish, when [[User:MrJokerit|MrJokerit]] from [[Region:Västra Götaland|Västra Götaland]] came out on top and took home the [[Bonanza Gold]].
A new record for maximum number of turfers to take a zone together took place between the two [[Bonanza]] heats at the Event area: a total of 194 turfers assisted [[User:MovieMania|MovieMania]] when he took the [[Zone:Bonanza2022|Bonanza2022]] zone.
In the evening at the Bonanza banquet, the [[Turf_Award#Turf_Award_2021|Turf Awards]] for [[2021]] was revealed.
Best Turf performance: [[User:hdaskydrone|hdaskydrone]] and [[User:Király|Király]] got equal number of votes
Turf Star of the year: [[User:Welshman|Welshman]]
Turfer of the Year: [[User:UrbanGeeks|UrbanGeeks]]
Most Spectacular zone takeover: [[User:gerald_flux.rc|gerald_flux.rc]] and [[User:recycling|recycling]].
Results from the [[Bonanza]] and [[Turf Award Nominations 2021|Turf Awards 2021]] can be found [http://media.kalmarturf.se/2022/05/Resultat-Bonanza-2022_TurfAwards2021.pdf HERE].
It was a very well planned and exectued Bonanaza, three cheers for the Västervik Bonanza Crew! At the Banquet they handed over the flag to [[Turf Västerbotten]], who invites everyone to [[Municipality:Umeå|Umeå]], the city of birches, next year! See you there on the 20th of May 2023 :)
==Open Events==
In July you can go to [[Municipality:Gothenburg|Gothenburg]] for an open event on the 2nd of July :) Information in Swedish [https://www.turfgoteborg.se/2022/03/08/turf-gbg-open-2022/ HERE].
At the end of August, there will be the much appreciated KulTurf in [[Municipality:Örebro|Örebro]] (information in Swedish [https://hem.turforebro.se/kulturf-2/ HERE]) and at the beginning of September you can head to [[Municipality:Malmö|Malmö]] for the first open event in a long time organized the the [[Turf Skåne|Skåne turfers]] (information in Swedish [https://www.turfskane.se/eventskalender/varaevent/skaneopen2022/ HERE]).
[[File:Skane-Open.jpg|none|600px|]]
== Vacation Time ==
Vacation time is here, and I took two weeks after the [[Bonanza]] to see a bit of [[Region:Skåne|Skåne]], [[Småland]] and [[Region:Blekinge|Blekinge]] in [[Country:Sweden|Sweden]]. On a rainy day when travelling between [[Municipality:Kristianstad|Kristianstad]] and [[Municipality:Växjö|Växjö]], me and my partner remembered Holger Nilsson, one of [[User:SunYour|SunYour's]] special missions The idea is to work together to help Holger Nilsson (based on the character Nils Holgersson who rode the goose Akka from the very south of Sweden to the north in a book by [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selma_Lagerl%C3%B6f Selma Lagerlöf]). The idea is that you pick him up by taking the zone he is currently in, he has to travel via the zones predetermined in the mission list, total of 431. He has currently travelled through 78 of the official stops on his journey. If you are vacationing in the Swedish south this year, please help him along the way! When you have picked him up, you can help him visit several of the zones on his way, as long as you don't dwadle too much (zone takes have to be within one hour of each other, but you don't have to only take the mission zones). If you are lazy and more than one hour goes by between zone takes, he will stay in the last zone you took before your ”break”. The special rules for Story Missions can be found [https://frut.zundin.se/mission_help.php HERE].
Vacation time often also means visiting Turf zones you usually never visit. It is also very common that one visits zones in area with few/no local turfers and here you are likely to find things "wrong" with the zones, like they are not in a proper location, an attribute is missing or the name is just not right. Then it is time to write an issue and help [[Turf Crew]] to better the zone :) Zone guidelines can be found [[Zone Guidelines|here]], but it is by far not a complete list of what can be wrong with zones.
It is not hard to write an issue, but you need to login to the [https://issues.turfgame.com/browse/2 issue page], this is easiest done by being logged into the [https://turfgame.com/ Turf homepage]. And you need a lot of patience...the issue page is very slow in updating, and this is true for submitting an issue as well. It might feel like it has stalled, but usually it just loads very very slow. If you are impatient, you will submit the same issue two, three or four times! So please, be patient when submitting issues :) [[Turf Crew]] do appreciate the help from the community in writing issues and alerting us when something is not right with a zone you visit.
== Turf Ultimate Region Fight ==
During the September round, [[User:MaXi|MaXi]] is once again organising the [[Turf Ultimate Region Fight 2021|Turf Ultimate Region Fight]]. If you and turfers from your region want to be part of this, please assign a region team leader/coordinator and e-mail MaXi at: [Mailto:maxi.triathlon@gmail.com maxi.triathlon@gmail.com] for more information. Last day to sign up your region in June 30th
This is the third year in a row this region fight will take place. Will [[Region:Åland|Åland]] be strong enough to defend last year's win or will some other region best them?
== The Munros hills ==
On the 4th of June [[User:Wintergreen|Wintergreen]] and [[User:CSL|CSL]] compleated their Munros by taking the zone on [[Zone:beinneallair|Ben Alder]]. Munros are hills in [[Region:Scotland|Scotland]] over 3000 feet (914,2 meters) as defined by [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sir_Hugh_Munro,_4th_Baronet Sir Hugh T Munro] in 1892. It took these two turfers 50 years to visit them all, and now they might have to go back to those early ones in order to take the Turf zones that have recently appered on them, hopefully that will not take them another 50 years ;) All Munros does not have a zone yet, but it is an on-going project.
[[File:BeinnEallair.jpg|none|600px|]]
== Did you know... ==
...that over the years 2379 [[Bonanza Participator]] medals have been awarded to 1321 different turfers.
...[[User:eddyueue|eddyueue]] and [[User:Hjulpynt|Hjulpynt]] have partcipated in 10 Bonanza, the most of any turfers.
== Turf Picture of the Month ==
Out of the submissions for this issues Turf Picture of the Month, the choice fell on [[Zone:Ångfartyget|Ångfartyget]] sent in by [[User:LillaHunden|LillaHunden]] in [[Municipality:Södertälje|Södertälje]].
