Goeie en welkome Vuurtoring-nuus

-Danger Point oopgestel vir 3 dae-

Goeie en welkome nuus vir inwoners en besoekers aan Gansbaai en omgewing! Danger Point Vuurtoring sal vir 'n volle 3 dae tydens die komende naweek oopgestel word: Saterdag (30 April), Sondag (1 Mei) en Maandag (2 Mei) vanaf 10:00-15:00. Inwoners en besoekers word aangemoedig om ons Vuurtoring te kom besoek - vir die eerste keer in 'n lang tyd.

Gedurende die naweek sal daar ongelukkig geen toegang tot by die bopunt van die Vuurtoring wees nie. Slegs die onderkant van die toring sal toeganklik wees. Hierdie is 'n tydelike reëling. Die oopstelling van die terrein en toring sal permanent gewysig word, sodra die MOU en ander relevante administratiewe aangeleenthede tussen Transnet Nasionale Hawe-owerheid, aan wie die eiendom behoort, die Overstrand Munisipaliteit en Gansbaai Toerisme gefinaliseer is. Gedurende die naweek sal lede van die 'Vriende van die Vuurtoringkomitee' beskikbaar wees om relevante inligting aan besoekers te verskaf. 

 
Fotokompetisie

Hierdie sal 'n ideale geleentheid wees vir die neem van foto's - bring jou kamera saam en skryf in vir die Fotokompetisie. Neem foto's van die Vuurtoring, die Birkenhead Gedenkteken en die pragtige uitsig oor die see. Plaas die foto's op die Gansbaai Toerisme Facebook-blad / tag @gansbaaitoerisme. Pryse te wen: koopbewyse vir ontbyt vir 2, asook koffie en koek vir 2 by Rosemary Country Kitchen.

Hierdie reëlings is moontlik gemaak deur 'n mondelinge ooreenkoms tussen die Uitvoerende Direkteur van Lighthouse Navigational Services; Overstrandse Uitvoerende Burgemeester, dr Annelie Rabie, Raadsdame Riana de Coning; Overstrand Munisipaliteit; Glenda Kitley van Gansbaai Toerisme; Barnie Germishuys (voormalige Operasionele Bestuurder Lighthouse Services).

Vir meer inligting kontak Glenda Kitley, Bestuurder: Gansbaai Toerisme by 072 291 5564.

Good news! Visit the Danger Point Lighthouse

The grounds of the Danger Point Lighthouse will be open to the public on Sat 30th April; Sunday 1 May and Monday 2 May from 10h00-15h00. At this stage there will be no access allowed to the top of the Danger Point Lighthouse, only the bottom of the tower will be accessible. (This is a temporary arrangement which will become permanent once the MOU and other relevant administrative matters are finalized between Transnet National Ports Authority, to whom the property belongs, the Overstrand Municipality and Gansbaai Tourism)
