MONIQUE BASSONMORE than 90 residents will soon be
without work after one of the town’s
biggest employers is allegedly forced
to cease operations after 15 years in the area.
The adventure tourism company Stormsriver Adventures and Tsitsikamma Canopy
Tours, who has been active in the Tsitsikamma area since 1998, has been informed by the
that they must close their doors by June 30
SANParks decided not to renew the contract for this part of the Tsitsikamma forest
which is used by the company for their outdoor activities. This part of the forest belongs
Stormsriver Adventures CEO Ashley Wentworth, believes that this decision will have a
negative impact on the area and its community.
“The socio-economic impacts of our forced
closure are devastating. A total of 95 families
will be affected, with 50 permanent and 45
part-time employees who will lose their jobs
- R250 000 in wages per month will be lost,”
Apart from the major job losses, 230 school
children will stop receiving a meal four times
a week, the company’s aids programme will
come to an end, and the community animal
welfare programme will cease to exist.

SWAK dienslewering by die Humansdorp
Verkeersdepartement is besig om inwoners
teen die mure uit te dryf.
Lede van die publiek wat verlede Donderdag opgedaag het om onder meer lisensies te
hernu, moes lank wag om geholpe te raak.
Om in die etensuur ’n lisensie af te haal of
enige ander transaksie te voltooi, is net ’n
Minstens 3 uur is deesdae hiervoor nodig.
Dit lyk of personeeltekorte die groot pro-bleem is.
Kabous Kolesky van Port Elizabeth, wat nie
vir die lang toue daar kans gesien het nie, vertel hoe hy Donderdag maklik drie uur lank
moes toustaan in Humansdorp om sy bestuurslisensie te hernu.
“Ek was voor 10:00 by die verkeersdepartement waar hulle my ’n nommer in die hand
gestop het. Nagenoeg drie uur later was dit
my beurt om in te gaan. Ten spyte van die sertifikaat van my oogkundige het hulle op ’n
oogtoets aangedring wat uitgevoer is deur ’n
beampte wat nie op standaard is nie,” sê Kabous.
Teen 13:00, met die eindpunt in sig, moes
Kolesky in sy spore omdraai om vir ’n verdere30 minute in die ry te wag terwyl die personeel
op ete is.
“Teen dié tyd het hulle nog net 33 mense,
my inkluis, gehelp,” vertel Kolesky.
Teen 14:00 het hy uiteindelik met sy kwitansie in die hand gestaan.
“Ek skryf dié stadige diens toe aan ’n tekort
aan personeel. Daar is net een beampte om
kliënte te help, wat ’n ewigheid vat.”
Volgens nog ’n Baaienaar wat drie leerders
van Port Elizabeth gebring het om vir hul bestuurslisensie aansoek te doen, moes hulle
ongeveer vier ure wag om gehelp te word.
“Tien minute voor hulle om 15:00 toemaak,
kon ons ten einde laas in die ry gaan staan
om te betaal. Maar hier gekom was daar niemand om ons te help nie. Ek het vir vyf
mense gevra om my te help, maar almal het
my geïgnoreer,” vertel sy. “Ek kan nie huis
toe gaan voor ek betaal het nie.”
Sommige inwoners wat nie so lank kon wag
nie, moes onverrigter sake omdraai.
Volgens munisipale woordvoerder, Mfundo Sobele, het die Humansdorp Verkeersdepartement oor die jare ’n gewilde plek vir
mense buite die Kouga geword om verskeie
transaksies te doen.
“Hoewel dit ’n pluimpie vir die personeel
is, plaas dit addisionele druk op hulle en is
dit een van die redes vir die lang rye mense,”Luke Cousings en Matthew Dubber moes ’n dag uit die skool bly om by die Humansdorp Verkeersdepartement vir hul bestuurslisensies aansoek te doen.

“Ons personeel probeer om so veel as
moontlik transaksies te verwerk, so vinnig as
wat hulle kan, maar dit is belangrik dat hulle
seker maak dat alle administrasie vereistes
gevolg word om te verseker dat alle transaksies suksesvol is.
“Vertragings kan verder toegeskryf word
aan tegniese haakplekke op die stelsel. By tyeword daar ook gevind dat die kliënt nie al die
nodige dokumentasie gebring het nie, en dit
dra ook by tot die vertraging.
“Met sekere transaksies, soos die hernuwing van ’n lisensie of die goedkeuring van
’n leerlinglisensie, is magtiging van die
provinsiale Departement van Vervoer in
Bhisho nodig. Soms word daar vertragings
ervaar as gevolg van die wagtydperk.”Ooreenkoms dalk reddingsboei vir Billabong

Continued from front page ...“SANParks have since 2010 indicated that we would have
to go through a tender process, but have constantly delayed this and granted six-month extensions,” said Wentworth.
“We were not opposed to the process provided it was
fair and transparent and respected our intellectual property rights as we brought the canopy concept into Africa
in 2000. W we have developed a sustainable business
model, embracing responsible tourism and have certain
legal intellectual property. You simply cannot put an established business out to tender. This is what we are contesting.
“Our attorneys are constructively trying to engage
SANParks to ensure that some sanity prevails. The legal
issues between our attorneys and SANParks are at a very
delicate stage, but they have finally accepted certain of
our intellectual rights. We will at all cost defend the
rights of our wonderful employees.”
Garden Route Regional General Manager, Jill Bunding-Venter, however said the reports doing the rounds
are not only factually misleading but are placing SANParks reputation at risk. “The fact of the matter is that
SANParks as a public institution has to follow the National Treasury regulations as far as Public Private Partnerships (PPP’s) are concerned.
“In an attempt to address project continuity and protect jobs SANParks has in fact renewed the contract
which ended on December 31, 2004 on several occasions
and cannot by law continue with the practice. This was
specifically done to ensure that no jobs were lost and
seamless product offering continues. In essence SAN-Parks has done all in its power to accommodate the current service provider as well as its reputation.”
Despite ongoing negotiations and legal processes, the
parties are yet unable to reach consensus on a structured
way in which a tender process could be undertaken without halting operations.
She said as prescribed by the Public Finance Management Act (PFMA) when a PPP term comes to an end, the
opportunity should be put out on an open and transparent tender. The management of the indigenous forests
is a function that was assigned by the then Department
of Water Affairs and Forestry to SANParks and the permit issued to Storms River Adventures has expired. Typically opportunities relating to state assets cannot be given out in perpetuity.
“This is the case for all projects, even where the private
sector has to invest large amounts of money for e.g. in
the Lodge Concessions, restaurants etc. It should be noted that the current service provider will not be excluded
from bidding for this opportunity - in actual fact they will
be encouraged to partake in the bidding process,” said
SANParks would like to further state that due processes will be followed to ensure that no jobs will be lost.
SANParks would also like to see a scenario where the
current operations will continue to run uninterrupted
until a new service provider is appointed, provided the
current operator does not continue to obstruct the process of rolling out the tender. In the event that the current
service provider is not successful, SANParks envisages
that there will be a seamless handover of the current
workforce to the new provider as per Section 197 of the
Labour Relations Act.KOUGA EXPRESS | THURSDAY 18 APRIL 2013NEWS 3Koukamma: Draft tariff increases

tyd dat die brandweer opgedaag het, was

Die skool het vir vier tydelike klaskamers
gewag, waarvan net een Vrydag afgelewer is.
Geringe skade is hier aangerig.

maand sy eerste verjaarsdag.
Pieter Geyer en sy vrou, Tertia, `n oud-Jeffreysbaaier, het die slaghuis in April 2012
oorgeneem. “Ons bedank graag al ons lojale
kliënte vir hul getroue ondersteuning die afgelope jaar,” sê Pieter.” Sonder julle sou ons
nie `n sukses kon wees nie. Ons beplan om
nog vir baie jare hier te wees.”
Pieter bedank spesiaal vir Dawie Horak,
Willie Rossouw, Pieter, Basie en die res van
die span by Beesland-slaghuis vir hul harde
werk die afgelope jaar.
Pieter sê hul doelstelling is eenvoudig – om
hoop na die midde-dorp te bring asook
tevrede klante. “Ons wil weer hoop na die
midde-dorp bring. Ten spyte van moeilike
omstandighede, het ons met die Vader se genade `n sukses van die onderneming gemaak.
Ons het bewys dat `n slaghuis in die middedorp nie net nodig is nie, maar ook `n volwaardige plek volstaan. Toe ons ons deure
verlede jaar opgemaak het, was daar nie een
slaghuis in Jeffreysbaai nie. Vandag spog die
dorp met vier slaghuise.
“Ons glo in die midde-dorp en is positief oor
dié besigheidsektor. Die midde-dorp het iets
wat die res van Jeffreysbaai nie het nie, naamlik die see en `n groot verskeidenheid restaurante. Ons doen `n beroep op die gemeenskap
om die midde-dorp te ondersteun. Saam kan
ons die plek na sy vorige glorie herstel.
“Ek en my vrou het `n ongelooflike passie
vir dit wat ons doen en wil ons Christenskap
in die besigheid uitleef. Die midde-dorp behoort aan Jeffreysbaaiers.”“Beesland-slaghuis staan vir eerlikhied,
vriendelike diens, netheid en kwaliteitvleis
teen billike pryse. Wanneer inwoners lekker
vleis wil eet of `n braai beplan, moet Beesland-slaghuis die slaghuis van keuse wees,”
sê Pieter. “Kliënte kan ook verseker wees dat
ons nie husse met lang ore in ons vleisprodukte verkoop nie.”
Kliënte kan ook uitsien na verbeterde diens.
“Ons het die afgelope jaar uit ons foute geleer,
en beloof om net hierop te verbeter en voort
te bou op goeie en kwaliteitdiens,” sê Pieter.
Pieter was vir twee jaar die eienaar van die
Despatch-vleismark, en vir die laaste 13 jaar
aan die stuur van sake by sy eie slaghuis,
Beesland-slaghuis, in Vryburg. Hy was ook
in 1993 as een van die varkbemarkers in die
Oos-Kaap aangewys. Nou ploeg hy diékundigheid en vaardigheid wat hy oor die
jare opgedoen het, terug in die geboortedorp
van sy vrou, asook die plek waar hulle
ontmoet het en ewige trou aan mekaar beloof
Dawie het vir die afgelope 16 jaar by `n
toonaangewende supermark in Jeffreysbaai
gewerk en voeg nou sy jarelange ondervinding en kennis by die span van Beesland-slaghuis. Volgens Pieter is hy `n onmisbare deel
van die slaghuis se sukses.
Daar is ook elke Saterdag `n boeremark
voor die slaghuis.

milestone for her 50th birthday – she plans on
obtaining her matric.
Lilly Stokwe (49) from Jeffreys Bay recently
completed her level four (grade 11) Abet training at Makukhanye.
She started attending classes in 2012 and did
six subjects - Ancillary Services, English, Social Science, Maths, Travelling and Tourism
and Life Orientation.
Abet is free education available to adult
learners who were not able to complete their
matric as children. The local principal is Ronaldo Jantjies, who also taught Lilly.
Doing the course was hard work because
Lilly had to do all of the work by herself. Thechallenge was attending late classes after

The Abet course has motivated Lilly to improve her qualifications further and to strive

Her advice for people who would like to do
the Abet courses is to keep on motivating
themselves and to be patient with themselves.A study, which is being funded by the Economic Development, Environment and Tourism Department through the Eastern Cape
Development Corporation, will look at the
possibilities for the narrow gauge line in
terms of tourism, passenger transport and
freight. This was announced by the Mandela
Bay Development Agency CEO Pierre Voges,
The Apple Express train stopped operating
in December 2010. The PE-Avontuur narrow
gauge railway line, which runs for 285 kilometres, is the longest operating narrow gauge
railway in the world. The line was best known
for its tourist train, the Apple Express, which
commenced operations in 1965 to Loerie, later
to Thornhill or Van Stadens.
According to spokesperson Nerina Skuy,
there are hopes to resume a limited service
“The train stopped operating on December29, 2010. The previous operator, the Port Elizabeth Apple Express (PEAE) Section 21 Company, ceased operating the heritage tourism
train because the then Eastern Cape Department of Roads and Transport had reneged on
an agreement to support the operation,” she
“The railway line suffered flood damage at
the airport and at Chelsea during the heavy
rains of the past winter. Transnet have indicated that they will evaluate the damage and,
depending on this assessment, the decision
with regard to repairs or future operations
will be made by them. However, this is not the
only damage. The section just beyond
Kareedouw was damaged in 2008 and has yet
to be repaired,” said Skuy.
In the meantime, she said, the Apple Express Rail NPC (AER) is in the process of finalising a lease agreement for premises at the
Transnet Humerail Diesel Depot where the
train is stored. Until this lease is finalised the
Apple Express technical crew cannot commence any work on the train.
“Unfortunately, at the time the train ceased
operating, the coaches were due for refurbishment and some need heavy maintenance. The
coaches have spent two years out in the elements and are looking a little worse for wear.”Ombudsman details

1C5GDPA3G-180413-KG-hs-algoasteelSOWAT 90 000 ton se appels is onlangs gedurende ’n erge
haelstorm in die Langkloof beskadig.
’n Erge haelstrom het deur ’n 20km-strook van die Langkloof beweeg en appels wat nog gepluk moes word, beskadig. Die meeste boere het reeds sowat 70% van hulle oeste
gepluk, maar die oorblywende appels is in verskeie gevalle
erg beskadig. Veral die Haarlem- en Misgund-omgewings
het erg deurgeloop.
Marius van der Westhuizen, voorsitter van die Langkloof-boerevereniging, sê sowat 90 000 ton se appels is beskadig, en jong bome is ook beskadig of het gebreek. “In
die Haarlem-omgewing is tussen 30 000 en 35 000 kratte
se appels beskadig.”
André de Wit, voormalige voorsitter van die verenging,
het sowat 4000 kratte se appels verloor. “Bome het afgebreek of is ontwortel, ruite is gebreek en van my werkers
se huise se dakke het afgewaai.” Die storm het oor die
Paasnaweek voorgekom.nie. Goeie pryse word ook behaal weens ’n hoë vraag na
appels, omdat die mark in Europa min oordragvrugte van
hulle plaaslike oeste het.”
Die vrugte is nou net geskik om sap van te maak, en
Van der Westhuizen sê daarvoor word boere baie minder
vergoed. “En dit kom terwyl alle moontlike kostes, soos
lone, aansienlik gestyg het.”
Die vallei verwag wel ’n koue, nat winter wat volgende
jaar moontlik weer ’n goeie oes tot gevolg kan hê.
Bron: Landbou.comUitstekende oes, verliese gely
Volgens van der Westhuizen het die vallei vanjaar uitstekende oeste, met hoë-gehalte vrugte wat goeie pryse behaal. Hy sê hoewel boere nie hulle totale oes verloor het nie,
die verliese wel druk op hulle winsgewendheid gaan plaas.
“Dis uitvoergehalte vrugte wat beskadig is,” vertel hy.
“Die beskadigde vrugte kan nou nie meer, terwyl die rand
gunstig is vir uitvoere, na die uitvoermark gestuur wordGroot kommer

KOMMER heers in die sitrusbedryf oor
swartvleksiekte en die EU se streng
maatreëls rondom die siekte.
Die Europese Unie se fitosanitêre-invoervoorwaardes aangaande swartvleksiekte op
sitrus is strenger as wat tegnies-wetenskaplik regverdig kan word. Die Departement
van Landbou, Bosbou en Visserye sê hoewel
hulle reeds die verskeie stappe op internasionale vlak gevolg het om‘n dispuut oor die
kwessie aanhangig te maak, dié pogings nou
verskerp gaan word.
Die bedryf word die afgelope seisoen deur
die siekte geteister, en veg verbete om ’n
moontlike verbod op uitvoere na dié wêrelddeel te voorkom. Justin Chadwick, hoof
uitvoerende beampte van die Sitruskwekersverenging, sê die siekte kom op sitrusvrugte wyd oor die land voor. Dit verkleur
die skil van die vrug.
Sowat ’n kwart van die land se vrugte
word na die EU uitgevoer, terwyl die bedryf
sowat R6,5 miljoen werd is.Visit Braams Toyota JoubertinaBraam

1C5GCGF3G-180413-KG-hs-braams1C5QSNK3G-180413-KG-hs-agriNa ander markte
Chadwick sê weens die belangrikheid van die
bedryf vir die land, lewer baie produsente
tans nie hulle sitrus vir die EU-mark nie,
maar eerder vir ander plaaslike of internasionale markte. “Die voorwaardes van die EU
is eintlik onmoontlik om na te kom.”
Luidens ’n verklarjng is een van die
streng voorwaardes verlede jaar ingestel.
Hiervolgens kan meer as vyf aanmeldings
van die siekte in een handelseisoen lei tot
nog strenger voorwaardes of ’n uitvoerverbod. Die EU wil voorkom dat die siekte hul
grense binnedring, hoewel dit glo nie van
geplukte vrugte versprei kan word nie.
Die departement sê, in samewerking met
die plaaslike bedryf, sal hulle voortgaan om
die streng voorwaardes teen te staan in die
hoop om uitvoere te vergemaklik.

Wel gedaan Life Isivivana
GRAAG wil ek die verpleegpersoneel, sowel
as die skoonmakers, van die Life Isivivanahospitaal in Humansdorp komplimenteer
met hul uitstaande diens.
By die hospitaal word jy gehelp sonder die
gewone verskonings van “ons is baie besig”
of “ons is te min personeel”.Glimlagte is aan die orde van die dag. Hul
gesigte weerspieël ’n gees van blymoedigheid met geen taak te groot of te klein nie.
Die personeel en sale is baie netjies.
Ek sal Isivivana aanbeveel as ’n goeie en
Hou so aan. - KobusTariefverhogings is belaglik
DIE arrogansie van uitvoerende burgemeester Booi Koerat en die Kouga-leiers wat
verwag dat belastingbetalers net moet aanhou betaal, is merkwaardig.
Dienlewering aan belastingbetalers neem
teen ’n tempo van 12% per jaar af, en Koerat
en sy span wil kostes met nog 13% verhoog.
Die besluit benadeel die belastingbetalers
jaarliks net verder. Ons as belastingbetalers
se lewensomstandighede en koste word nie
in ag geneem deur die huidige Kouga-leiers
se misbruik van hul gesag en swak bestuur
van belastinggeld nie.
Moet die belastingbetalers ook eers ’nUbuntu-aksie van geweld openbaar voor
daar waarde vir ons belastingbydraes gemaak gaan word?
As ons na die Kouga se riool, waterkwaliteit, infrastruktuur en swak leierdissipline
kyk, is dit duidelik dat die huidige leiers van
Kouga nie waarde toevoeg in verhouding tot
hul vergoeding wat uit ons belastinggeld
verdien word nie.
Koerat en Kouga-leiers sal moet aanvaar
dat daar belastingbetalers is wat vir hulself
kan dink en die verpolitisering van verskonings nie sal bly aanvaar nie.
Hennie Josephus - JeffreysbaaiLof vir Hankey se munisipale span
TWEE weke gelede het ek by Wyk 9 se raadslid, Luks Ntshiza, gaan kla oor ‘n drein wat
oorgeloop het en ‘n vreeslike reuk afgegee
het. Tot die varke het uit die woongebied gehardloop om eerste daar te gaan bad.
Toe ek die Vrydag by die munisipaliteit se
superintendent, mnr Manie Nelson, gaan
kla het dat dit nou te erg word, het hy gesê
dat hy alreeds ’n oproep daaroor van die
wykraadslid se sekretaresse ontvang het en
dat hy nou op pad is.
Hy het in sy bakkie geklim met ‘n paar
werkers en met die suigtrok op hulle hake
is hulle weg.
Toe ek ‘n uur later by die huis kom, sienek hoe hulle besig is om die probleem op te
los. Dit is ook nou die einde van die varke
se badtyd. Nog ‘n probleem wat opgeduik
het, was op Vrydag, 5 April, toe een van ons
kerkbroers kom sê het dat water uit die meter by die Nasionale Pinksterkerk te Hankey
stroom. Ek het hom na mnr Amos Mabukane
by die munisipaliteit gestuur en na ongeveer
twee ure se harde werk deur die werkers is
die probleem opgelos.
Sal dit nie wonderlik wees as ons meer van
hierdie soort mense in ons gemeenskap het
nie? Dankie aan Kouga-munisipaliteit se
Hankey-kantoor vir sulke raadslede en
werkers. - Hettie BooysenDASHING FUN AT FOUNTAINS MALLGetting a head start on the annual Global Leadership Academy (GLA) Trolley Pro 2013 are

PUTTING up a R10 million barrier at Van Stadens-river bridge is a bit of a lark as far as I
I don’t want to seem callous, but suicidal people have such a deep spiritual problem that no
bridge barrier could prevent them from their
suicidal mission. They might as well put barriers on all the other high bridges.
Personally, I have lost many close relatives
who took suicide as the only way out of their
A bridge is not the only expedient to put an
end to their ordeal. Some use a gun, a rope, gas,
or some or other death wish of sorts to end their
lives. If a bridge puts a barrier in their way theywill soon find a substitute.
I can only wonder how many palms are
greased by this R10 million project by a selected
contractor or contractors who may be to eager
to jump on the bandwagon of enlarging their
portfolios. My question is: Are they really interested in peoples’ emotions of having lost
loved ones, or in economical advantage.
Its obvious that all the other deterrents at the
bridge have failed, so let’s try another one. For
much less than R10 million, I am sure they can
create employment by placing a full-time security official at the bridge.
That is my candid opinion.
- Desmond BesterDie ontydige sluit van posbusse
DIE volgende brief het ek 24 Januarie 2013 aan
die plaaslike Posmeester gerig – sonder reaksie. Is dit te veel gevra?
Ek versoek u vriendelik, dog dringend die
Ons betaal ten duurste R320 (vir ons is dit
baie geld) vir die gerief om ’n posbus te kan hê
sodat ons self ons pos kan gaan haal omdat die
aflewering nie altyd so betroubaar is nie. Maar
wat baat dit om vir daardie “gerief “ te betaal
as jy nou gebonde is aan kantoorure: vanaf 8:00
Ek (en soos duisende ander) werk van 8:00 –
17:00. Soggens ry ek 7:45 by die poskantoor
verby, maar kan nie my pos uithaal nie, want
die hekke is gesluit. Namiddag kom ek 17:10
verby, maar weereens die hekke is reeds gesluit. Watter voordeel is daar dan eintlik om ’n
posbus te huur?
Ek verstaan u problem met die “straatslapers” en watter gemors hulle veroorsaak. Ek
het simpatie met u daaroor, maar daar is so ’nmaklike oplossing.
Gebruik een van u personeellede en laat
daardie persoon die hekke eers 17:30 in die namiddag sluit. Net ’n halfuur later, en honderde
menses sal juig! Daardie personeellid kan
soggens ’n halfuur later begin werk of haarmiddaguur of sybe ’n halfuur langer maak. En
siedaar! Waarom almal wat betaal vir hulle posbusse nou straf? Dit hoef mos nie nodig te wees
nie. Personeellede kan roteer om elkeen ’n
beurt te gee.
Om op ’n Saterdag in te ry dorp toe om pos
te gaan uithaal, sal nie meer nodig wees nie.
Meneer die Posmeester, u kry u pos gerieflik
op u lessenaar. Betaal u miskien ook vir ’n posbus? Ek glo nie. U behoort die posbushuurders
se problem in te sien.
Miskien kan u sommer nuwe sluitingstye
van die hekke in die koerant bekend maak. Ek
glo ek het die ondersteuning van honderde ander ongelukkiges.

Crab Walk and MTB Ride
ESTI STEWARTTHE annual Christy’s Catch Crab Walk/
Run and Mountain Bike Ride will take
place on April 27.This event forms part of the SAMSA Sea
Pledge Saldanha to Sodwana celebrations.
The run will start at the Walskipper in Jeffreys Bay at 09:00, with registration taking
place at 08:00. The finish line is at Christy’s
Catch in St Francis Drive, St Francis, a mere15km away.
Sponsor Mark Christy insisted on the shorter distance as family participation is what he
The 15km walk and run is all along the beach
from Walskipper to the St Francis main beach,
and then to Christy’s Catch. The Kromme River will be crossed by barge. Runners are also
welcome to enjoy this event as part of their
training, however it is not a marathon.

SCHOOLS, businesses and individuals who inspire friends
and colleagues to take part in this year’s SPAR Women’s Challenge will stand to win great prizes in the 20th edition of the
race in Port Elizabeth on May 4.
According to SPAR Eastern Cape marketing manager Abri
Swart the aim of the “introduce a friend”-competition is to reward loyal supporters and encourage new participants to discover the fun and community spirit of the road race which
annually draws around 12 000 runners.
“If a lady who took part last year introduces a friend who
did not, they fill in an additional form that goes into a separate
lucky draw. If their names are drawn, each of them will win
Swart said participants may introduce as many new ladies
as they wish, but may only nominate each one once.
“We’re once again also offering incentives in the hotly contested schools and corporates category.”
He said the primary school and company with the most entries would each win R2 500, while the most-represented high
school would earn a laptop computer.
“In addition, the teacher who assembles the largest number
of learners will receive R1 200 for his or her efforts.”
Last year Lorraine Primary went to the head of the class,
while long-time supporter Lawson Brown High narrowly beat
off challenges from Arcadia and Westville Senior Secondary
Aspen Pharmacare took advantage of the team-building opportunity to scoop the profits in the corporate category.
“To make things easier on everyone, we have instituted a
special bulk entry procedure for schools and companies,” said
“But each runner can still choose whether to do the 5km or
10km event, as both count towards the total.”
He said participants in the newly introduced Little Ladies’
Race for girls under the age of nine, which takes place during
registration at Pollok Beach on May 1, would not qualify for
the primary schools category.
Swart said organising club, Walmer Athletics, had already
dropped off or posted bulk entry packs – containing forms,
posters and instructions – to interested schools and companies
across the metro.
“Their race numbers and T-shirts will be prepared and prepacked in bulk for collection before the race.” Representatives
can collect their organisations’ packs from the registration
tent during office hours on April 29 and 30.
Enter at www.spar.co.za or collect a form from your neighbourhood SPAR or selected sports shops in Nelson Mandela Bay.
Late entries will be taken during registration from May 1
to 3 (9am to 7pm) and on the morning of the race.
For bulk entry information, contact Colleen Muller on 084
