Community turns out at Mimosa Makiti despite cold weather
Market goers, including children had the chance to purchase food, clothing, gifts, art and crafts, home-made goods and other goods from the vendors.
Saturday, October 29 saw families brave the cold weather conditions to show up at the Mimosa Makiti that was held at Wilgespruit NG Kerk.
Instead of sitting at home residents came out and enjoyed great food, good entertainment, games for the children and much more.
Market goers, including children had the chance to purchase food, clothing, gifts, art and crafts, home-made goods and other goods from the vendors.
Curry and rice, hamburgers, chicken pregos, boereworsrolls, spare rib pockets and pancakes were some of the goodies that were enjoyed on the day as well as a wide variety of cold drinks and baked goods for dessert.
Younger attendees enjoyed face painting, fishing, water balloon pinata, tombola with a twist, dunk tank, disc shooting, pillow fight, guess the sheep and three jumping castles.
On top of the tons of entertainment, some also got the chance to hang out with the police and other members of the security forces.
The entertainment was presented under a tent with performances from Dawn Farmer Orchestra, Bianka Esterhuizen with your favourite hits and Matt Stern.
Event organisers said the stalls attracted a higher-than-expected crowd of locals, and they described it as a successful and fun-filled community event.
