K cool. If I can get ahold of Dewald I will be able to assist him from there. If he wants my help!!!

This thread is very slow so we need to start advertising with proper facts and what will happen. We need numbers as well.

I have spoken the the social worker involved(Patience Kutama) with Siphumelele, provisionally we are booked 15 Dec 2013. She will forward my message to Nadia van Wyk, then we will be able to sort out all the finer details from there.

Currently there are 10 kids at the home and there might more come December (maybe 12/13).

There is also a park across from the home itself, which I am told can be used for parking, if possible can some from that area go check it out for us(I am in the far west sorry). This is the address: 21 Olyf Avenue, Edleen, Kempton Park, South Africa, Africa, Earth :rollsmile:.



Will keep you guys update.

Might need something to get up the side walk, or if the road is quiet enough then maybe everyone can just park in one long line :dunno:
Guess it depends on how many cars there will be.

Remember, once the details are final we will send out a Mass PM to everyone containing info on all three charity events :thumb:

I HAVE MADE CONTACT:joy::joy::joy:

I am planning on meeting with Nadia, during the week so we can discuss what the kids would like and what not. They currently have a mix of children, boys and girls, ranging from 4 to 18.

I will meet her at the house so I can have look at the park the for parking etc.

She is can arrange for the park to be cordoned off so we can use it.

During the course of the weekend she will also talk to the kids and ask them what they would like to do and what they "need" as presents. This way ensuring the kids get what they want and it does not make our effort seem like a "general drop off Christmas party".

I will update you guys asap:thumbs:


All most forgot, I am speaking to Ralf so we can use his workshop as meeting point A, Speedway Motorsport is +- 4 km's from Siphumelele.

during my normal 50 minutes sunday "take-da-dog-for-a-walk", I passed by here, and stopped at the gate, and chatted to the "house-mother".

I put the idea to her that the kids prepare a bit of a "ramp" so that the cars can mount the curb and park on the grass of the park, and she said that they should be able to accommodate.

can't wait for the official meeting with Nadia
