Park run word padloop in Gariep

Foto's: Christelle Hattingh
Die kinders van Gariep is aktief besig om deur hulle vakansieprogram te werk. Stap was vandag op hulle program. En dit het hulle sommer met oorgawe gedoen. Buiten die feit dat hulle 'n bietjie oefeninge doen en ook energie verbrand, het hulle vandag 'n stapmaat gehad, by name me. Christelle Hattingh. Dit het die stap sommer dubbel so lekker gemaak, want stories en grappies word deel van elke tree.

Gariep-woongebied is 60 km van Groblershoop af op pad na Upington.

Die 2,8m-trek in die rigting van Upington ...

Christelle Hattingh het hierdie week die pad gevat met 'n klomp noodsaaklikhede wat sy op 'n bakkie en 'n 2,8m-sleepwa gelaai het. Laaier, bestuurder, koerier en maatskaplike werkster - 'n-alles-in-een-mens. Stopplekke langs die pad was Gariep, Groblershoop en Keimoes. Die dae is te kort en die hande te min om orals uit te kom.

Gelukkige Vadersdag ...

Gebruik hierdie idee om vir jou
pa 'n mooi en maklike vadersdagkaartjie
te maak. Skryf 'n uit-jou-hart-
boodskappie vir hom en sê sommer
dankie vir alles.

National Doughnut Day ...

The first Friday of June is annually celebrated as National Doughnut or Donut Day in the United States. The holiday is a continuation of Doughnut Day when members of the Salvation Army provided doughnuts and coffee to service members during the First World War.

The first Donut Day began as a way to cheer up soldiers who were risking their lives and limbs in the trenches during the war. At home, Doughnut Day became a way to raise awareness about the war and to raise funds for Salvation Army's activities on the battlefield. The tradition of serving donuts to raise funds for the organization is still alive in many parts of the US.

Fried Dough
A doughnut is a ring-shaped sweet snack made of fried dough and is usually rolled in sugar or topped or glazed with icing. Doughnuts can also be filled with jam, custard, or cream.
How to Celebrate?
Celebrate the spirit of charity. Visit your local doughnut store to treat yourself to some of these delicious snacks. Many doughnut stores around the world offer free doughnuts to celebrate Doughnut Day. Make doughnuts at home and share them with family, friends, and co-workers.

Why don't we have a donut day for our local Child Welfare? Put it on the calendar for 2020!!
