It was held down at the beachfront in the Witsand Day Park, where more than 30 stalls offered hot and cold edibles and ostrich potjie. Also many crafter's advertised their talents. The stall that attracted great interest was the De Waalville special needs class, under leadership of Janine.
The local band Frik & Co entertainment festival goers, and Pilly Keyser (Elvis) stole the show while singing many of the 'Kings' Golden Oldies. Many visitors that bought raffle tickets won lovely prizes that were sponsored by businesses as far as Riversdale. The Festival committee is very happy to have met their goals, and are proud to announce that the beneficiary's Vondeling Eco School and NSRI Witsand Station 33 will receive donations of R4 000 and R2 000 respectively from the profits.
"Thank you to the sponsors, public and residents for your great support. We hope to repeat this festival next year and hope to see everyone involved again". (Lorraine Martin).
