EDITORS’
LETTER
It seems to be
business as usual for most of us. Well, at least for me that is.
Our
heartfelt thanks to the NSRI for rescuing multitudes of people
during the holiday’s last year. Ray and his team surely
deserve a big thanks. Our beaches were busier than ever, and a
lot cleaner too thanks to Vodacom for their beach cleaning
effort. Seven beaches in the
Eastern Cape
, including ours, benefited from the Vodacom Beach Cleanup and a
whopping 13 411 bags were collected in this area. In total the
campaign bagged about 37 558 of rubbish along the South African
coastline. Besides the normal items one would expect littered on
a beach, the campaign also bagged a few bizarre looking items
like shoes, kids toys, a wig, tyres,
nappies and virtually a whole bicycle that washed up on a beach.
I
had the privilege of meeting Colin Clarke. He has been a
resident of Plett for the past 40 years. He and his wife, Joy
are celebrating their 59th wedding anniversary this
week. The Bitou News team wishes them many blessings!
Our
schools are up and running and we wish
all learners a very fruitful academic year.
