The job continued this past Friday. A big shout out to AgriLand SSK East London for donating 30 x 1.4 m wooden dropper poles, and to each volunteer who sacrificed their morning to install them.

A special mention to Ian Field for preparing every single pole by hand in advance of installation!

And as always, Shelly's Coffee & Craft kept our volunteers caffeinated and in good spirits.

Ahead of Mandela Day tomorrow, a small group of Ratepayers got hands-on and replaced the first section of missing poles along our boardwalk. These widening gaps have been a increasing safety concern for the walkers, joggers, and families who use it daily.

A special shout out to:

๐ŸŒฟIan & Margie Field, for driving this project and sponsoring poles
๐ŸŒฟGonubie SAPS for sending two members to assist with labour

Today I attended the public hearing concerning the proposed name changes. I spoke specifically about Gonubie and that we oppose the suggested change. The meeting was conducted in Xhosa that made it very difficult to follow the proceedings. It is my view that this is not public participation if a section of the community cannot follow what is said by the facilitators.

Come to us. Listen to us. Public participation should take place in the community affected.

Furthermore, we call on officials to seriously reconsider the use of Sports, Arts and Culture funding for a renaming that amounts to a minor spelling change. Gonubie's local community has a real need for a proper sports facility, with ablution blocks. Would this funding not be more impactful if redirected into a project that benefits the residents?

We are not against progress. We are against a process that sidelines the community it claims to serve.
