Awarded for good workTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

As the famous saying goes: “Be thechange you want to see in the world.”Some live everydayof their lives try-

ing to make sure that they become thechange theywant to see andmake their com-munities a better place.One such person is Cheslyn Steenberg (22)

from Kensington, who says seeing the goodin his community makes him sleep better atnight. Doing every little thing possible forhis community to make it a better place

makes him happy and gives others hope.Steenberg was recently recognised with a

Lead SA award for the goodwork he is doingin his area.Steenberg’s work aims for community up-

liftment. Working to see that everything isin order, he works with youngsters to stopcrime and work tirelessly so that everyonein his community has an equal opportunity.

LeaderHe is involved in many things in his com-

munity: He is the secretary of the Kensing-ton community police forum, the ward 56

youth representative and the chairperson ofFrontier “youth serving youth”.He says he does all this to make sure that

his community is a better one.He says he is humbled by the Lead SA

award.“I didn’t expect it. I hope it will also moti-

vate other youth and others in the communi-ty to stand up and work for their communi-ties. I’m involved with the community onmany levels because I believe this communi-ty can be a better one,” he says.His community involvement started at the

age of 12 while in Grade 6 at Sunderland Pri-

mary School.“I saw the challenges that the people inmy

community were facing. There were manysocial challenges and social ills – I had to dosomething. I saw the need to do somethinggood because at the end of the day we areone people andwe should do good for one an-other,” he says.

ChallengesThough he tries to be involved and help

where he can, he says his community is stillfacing many challenges.”V Continued on page 2

“People here – both the young and the old– are struggling to get employment. Hous-ing is a challenge as we have asubstantial number of back-yard dwellers. Substance abuseand gangsterism also pose agreat risk.

“However, I am of the opin-ion that nobody is too bad to be-come better or good. Thesechallenges we face will becomesomething of the past if we asa community work together.That is the key. Workingagainst each other is bad forall,” he says.

Steenberg says his wish is tosee a community where peoplereally care for one another.

“We are already caring butwe can do better. I would appre-ciate the fact if our youth start to enrol intertiary institutions, become employed andtake care of their families. I would like tosee a community where our elderly are re-

spected and taken good care of. We need toremember that the elderly are our pillars,

they gave us what we havetoday: Education, freedomand life.

“I live every day hopingthat one day I will see thiscommunity become a placeof hope for all, not a warzone, not a place of hopeless-ness and depression,” hesays.

Steenberg encourages oth-er youngsters to finishschool.

“The youth can start by at-tending school and finishingschool, get into a tertiary in-stitution and empowerthemselves. But this doesnot comewithouthardwork;

hardwork is the key to success. If our youthcan just take their heads out of the sand,shake it off, have a goal and aim for it, thenhalf the battle is won,” he says.

Well-known floral artist and conserva-tionist Betty Bowker Dwight passed

away peacefully during Saturday night.At 90 years of age, she was very frail the

past few months as her heart has been fail-ing for some years.

Rondebosch Common was her passion.In 1976 she began to plan

her life’s work that woulddepict the Common’s floraand fauna, month bymonth.

She gave permission forthe Friends of the Rondeb-osch Common to createpretty and useful cardswhich still give the Friendsvaluable income to helpmaintain the work on theCommon.

In 2007 Dwight receivedthe Lifetime AchievementAward at the Cape TimesVodacom EnvironmentalAwards in recognition ofher dedication to the Rondebosch Common.

Her great wish was to publish a book ofher portfolio of her paintings of the Com-mon and, together with the Friends, a beau-tiful book was created, Rondebosch Com-mon, which has also provided the Friendsmuch-needed funds to continue mainte-nance work.

She was thrilled that her book was pub-lished and sent far and wide to families nowliving in the United Kingdom and the Unit-

ed States.According to the Friends, Dwight always

knew if a particular species was to be foundon the Common and exactly where to findit.

She was an active member both of theFriends and the liaison committee for the

Common until recentyears. She nevermissed theSpring flower walks on theCommon either – hurrying,eager and smiling, across tothe Common as the groupsgathered for their Sundaywalks.

The Friends say Dwightwas a caring member of hercommunity, visiting thesick and lonely at St Antho-ny’s, Arcadia and the Alex-andria Institute, as well asfriends and neighbours iso-lated at home. She was alsoan active member of herchurch.

Dwight was born on 15 October 1924.According to the Friends she lived near

Rondebosch Common all her life.“Her work represents an extraordinary

journey in the life of a woman following herchildhood passion,” the Friends say.

“We lovedyou somuch,Betty, andwewillmiss you. Go in peace”.

The next Spring flower walk on 23 Augustwill be dedicated to Dwight. Meet on thegrassed area at 11:15.

Celebrating women who stand tallTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

Mayor Patricia de Lille haspraised blind women for their

strength, courage and persever-ance in refusing to be defined bychallenging situations they havebeen through or that they face ev-ery day.De Lille addressed women fromSouth African BlindWomen in Ac-tion (SABWIA) at the Cape TownSociety of the Blind in Salt Riveron Thursday last week.De Lille said at the event shechose to celebrate Women’s Daywith them as they were the womenwho overcame adversity and re-

fused to be victims. Instead, theytookaction to empower themselvesand set a shining example for ev-eryone.“You remind me of the 20 000women who, on 9 August 1956,made history when they marchedto the Union buildings to petitionagainst the divisive pass laws.Those women made a powerfulstatement that marked one of themost significant turning points inthe fight against apartheid.“Like those women, you have al-so taken a stand. Despite the physi-cal challenges you face every day,youmake a daily decision not to bevictims of your circumstances. In-stead, your will to succeed has led

you to overcome adversity, learnnew skills and use your time toserve people in need,” she said.

Empowering projectsSABWIA is an organisation thatempowers blind women to live lifeto the fullest. It runs entrepreneur-ial projects, focusing on knitting,weaving and craft work, as well asprogrammes that empowerwomenby providing social work services,placement services, computer lit-eracy, office administration andentrepreneurial training.Attending the event was NettyCoetzee (50), who said it was heart-warming.

“We feel very excited that we arealso remembered. It makes us feelbetter that we don’t live in a worldof our own but people around usnotice that we are there and theydo things with us in mind. I’m sohappyandvery excited thatwehadto come together and celebrate aswomen because there are a lot ofchallenges that we face,” she said.

DonationDe Lille donated R10 000 to helpthe organisation run its pro-grammes, as well as various fooditems like canned foods, vegeta-bles, rice and wool.Lizelle vanWyk,CEOof theCape

Town Society of the Blind, saidwomen lived in a time where theywere confronted with social chal-lenges but they had to stand theirground.“Do things for yourself, equipyourself and make magic happen.Don’t let anything bring you down,you have done a lot for your-selves,” she said.Elizabeth Maphike from SAB-WIA said they were grateful andthey hadn’t expected it.“It’s suchanhonour tohave suchan event. We are really happy andit givesus strength to carryonwiththe work we do for other blindwomen,” she said.

Justice for slain sex workersNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

About 30 sex workers weremurdered in thelast year, according to statistics of the SexWorker Education andAdvocacy Taskforce(Sweat).A third of these murders took place inCape Town, says Sweat spokesperson Lese-go Tlhwale.These numbers were highlighted lastweek as sex workers gathered to rememberfour women found dead in different parts ofthe city.The group gathered in Oak Avenue, Ke-nilworth, where a sex worker was foundstabbed to death; in front of the Loop Streetbackpackers in which a sex worker wasfound strangled and mutilated; in Raven-scraig Road, Woodstock, where another sexworker was found beaten to death and inSiteB,Khayelitsha,where a sexworkerwasassaulted so severely she died.Sex workers and supporters had a mo-ment of silence and lay flowers in memoryof the murdered women at each site,Tlhwale says.“Often cases of violence against sexwork-ers go unnoticed and there are no suspects

found. Sex workers need to be recognisedas human. They died in a brutal way andno person deserves that,” she says.Sex workers experience violence daily,from a number of sources, Tlhwale says.“Violence is rife. According to our count,ten women have been murdered in CapeTown since June last year. Cape Town is byfar the worst,” she says.

SlaughteredA sex worker who attended the remem-brance event, who does not want to be iden-tified, says she was torn between anger andjoy.“It made me happy to remember thosewhowere killed, but itmakesme angry thatnothing is happening and justice is beingdenied. They were slaughtered like chick-ens,” she says.“Everyone faces risks each day, but it’sworse for us. Sex work is criminalised sowe can’t even go to the police if somethinghappens tous.We feel unsafewhileworkingbecause we face police harassment, clientstake advantage of us and we are oftenrobbed. No-one is looking after sex workersandwe have to work tomakemoney for ourfamilies.”

Flowers were laid to mark the place where the body of a murdered sex worker was found.Three other such murders were commemorated across Cape Town last week.


Freedom Riders to the rescueTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

“People have become greedyand they can easily forget

their neighbours in need. If we allcould do our bit to help, the worldwill be a better place for everyone.”Gail Reagon-Rutgers, Freedom

RidersMotorcycle Club spokesper-son, believes that people shouldplay their part in uplifting theircommunities whenever they caninstead of being greedy and keep-ing to themselves.“We need to stretch out our hand

and help because this is very im-portant. Unfortunately, humanspirit is not geared to helping oth-ers any more. But we as the Free-dom Riders will do our part intouching lives,” she says.

DonationTo do their bit the Freedom Rid-

ers donated blankets, bread andvegetables to The Haven nightshelter in Kensington last week.They promised to help the shelterafter the shelter’s open-day twoweeks ago.The shelter provides a home for

homeless people and they also get

food. This is at times difficult forthe shelter as it is a non-profit orga-nisation.The Freedom Riders helped

build the shelter twenty years ago.

Reagon-Rutgers says the recent do-nation was a way of rebuilding thecommunications channel that hadbeen lost over the years.“Wewere involvedwith the shel-

ter when it started years ago but aswe are all human we lost contact.“When they invited us for the

open day we saw that there was agreat need to support their work

and what they do for other people.We also saw it as an opportunityto take it from where we left withthem and form a strong partner-ship with them and continue tosupport the work that they do.“We will continue to help them

on an ongoing basis because thereare a lot of things that they need.With our help they will be able tohelp others. It’s important that wetake care of each other. Wheneverwe can, we will help,” she says.

Social responsibilitySebastian Maggott, president of

the Freedom Riders Club, saysthey took it upon themselves to putthings together and help.“Weall have a social responsibil-

ity. We are all about charities andhelping out in our communities.We have to supply for the needsthat we see in our area. Everyonehas to do their bit and we are gladthatwecouldalsohelp themas thisis very important. We will contin-ue to do so whenever we can,” hesays.The Freedom Riders also gave

the shelter’s staff members ticketsto its Women’s Day event on Sun-day.

The Freedom Riders Motorcycle Club donated items to The Haven night shelter in Kensington.

Children get turnat playing copsTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

Six pupils from HJ Kronenberg PrimarySchool in Maitland got to live what theywanted to be when they grow up when thevisited the Kensington police station onTuesday last week.This follows a #Feedadream campaign by

a CPUT students with the Peninsula SchoolFeeding Association, launched two monthsago when they visited the school.Every pupil was asked to write down

what they wanted to be when they grow up.The students vowed to help them to get clos-er to their dreams. This was a way to moti-vate the pupils, as well as to give them a feelof their dreams becoming a reality.Fourth-year public relations student

Aphiwe Faku says the pupils wrote manyinspiring things and they had to take thema step closer to their dreams.“We received a lot of things. Others want-

ed tobedoctors, police officerswhilst otherswanted to be nurses and others just wishedto go for a walk at the beach whilst otherswanted dolls. The responses that we gotwere so moving,” he says.The pupils’ outing started when they

were picked up in a police van which droveto the police station with sirens blazing.“Children are so innocent and they talk

from their hearts. They spoke about howcrime affected them and how they wantedto arrest those who did bad things.“They were excited about the day as they

had a lot to learn. They were taken aroundthe police station to see what it looks like.They had an exciting time when they alsohad an opportunity to wear a bulletproofvest. You could see that the kidswere happyabout being police officers,” says Faku.

Work harderFaku says they are glad that as students

they could do this for the pupils.“Manyof us never had such anopportuni-

ty. It makes me happy that with what we dothe children will work harder towards real-ising their dreams and they will work evenharder knowingwhat they reallywant to dois a reality and they have had a feel of it.I have no doubt that we have planted some-thing in these kids and they will work to-wards realising their dreams,” says Faku.Kensington police spokesperson Ser-

geant David Stemmet says it was an enjoya-ble day for the pupils.“We took them around the police station

and they had to be in the van so that theyhave the real feel of the policemen at work.Itwas adayof funand they learnt a lot aboutour work, hoping they will grow to join thepolice,” he says.

Six pupils from HJ Kronenberg Primary School visited their local police station last week tolearn what it would be like to become police officers themselves.

For the last three years,MarcelaGuerreroCasas has been “raising” what she calls

her child.She has watched Open Street, an organi-

sation that transforms how city streets areperceived and used by creating car-freestreets for a fewhours at a time and invitingpeople to use the space creatively, grow, falldown and take it’s first tentative steps.Guerrero Casas was recently recognised

by the Mail & Guardian newspaper on itslist of 200YoungSouthAfricans – anhonourmade even more special because she wasnot born here. “When they phoned to sayI had been nominated, I told them I had notbeen born here and they said it didn’t mat-ter because thenomination is aboutmakingSouth Africa a better place. It’s so reward-ing. You feel so warm inside,” she says.Guerrero Casas left Columbia at 17 to

study in the United States. And althoughshe still describes Columbia as home andfrequently returns to visit, her roots arefirmly planted here, she says.Open Street can also call Columbia home,

as it is based on a movement there from the1970s. 120km of streets are turned into pe-destrian areas every Sunday.More than 400cities across the world run similar projects.“I don’t race and I don’t know anything

about bicycles, but I’ve always commutedby cycling. When I moved to Cape Town, Irealised that it wasn’t always safe to do soand a dialogue started with other cyclists,”she says. This grew into Open Street, andthe first event saw Lower Main Road in Ob-servatory closed to traffic for a day in 2012.“That first Open Street was a highlight.

We were expecting around 50 people. When

we saw so many people there, I actuallyshed a few tears,” she says.The movement has since spread to Langa

and the city centre. “Hundreds of cyclistsrode from the city centre to Langa for OpenStreet.When they arrived, theywere all rid-ing in a line and you couldn’t see the end.It was like a glimpse of the future,” she re-calls.However, the organisation has faced a

number of challenges, and has “fallendown” a few times, Guerrero Casas says.Lack of funding and red tape make holdingany event difficult.

Open Street’s Marcela Guerrero Casas hasbeen named one of the Mail and Guardian’s200 Young South Africans.

The Cape Town Science Cen-tre in Observatory celebrat-

ed national Science Week by of-ficially opening its SAP audito-rium on Tuesday last week.

Science Week was celebratedfrom 1 to 8 August.

Pupils from various schoolswere invited to the venue tocome and see for themselves thewonders of science and to learnabout various thing in the cen-tre.

Minister of science and tech-nology Naledi Pandor attendedthe official opening.

A panel discussion on prepar-ing South African children forthe digital economy was held.

It came to light that, thoughthere are challenges, a lot is be-ing done for children to em-brace the digital economy andthey are moving in the right di-rection.

Pandor said Science Weekwas very important as it gotchildren closer to science.

“Children must learn aboutthe different applications and

be able to create applicationsthey want. With science labs weare glad that we are able to pricka child’s mind and expose themto exciting developments thatare happening around them.

As adults, we must learn toappreciate that, these days,young people are thinking inways we are not thinking. Theycome up with solutions or ideaswe never thought of and as olderpeople we have to be able to beled by the youth and we appreci-ate that science is exposingthem to a whole new world,” shesaid.

Pandor added that sciencecentres played an importantrole in strengthening the sci-ence and technology culture.She also expressed a wish tohave at least one science centrein the ward for every child to beexposed to science and learnthrough the fascinating scien-tific world.

Julie Cleverdon, director ofCape Town Science Centre, saidthe auditorium would provide anew learning space and givemore children opportunities tolearn new things.

ASTRID FEBRUARIE@FebAstrid

About 7383 homeless people are living inshelters and on the streets of the city, a

survey conducted by the City of Cape Townhas found.In the first of its kind in South Africa, the

City completed a headcount of street peoplein the space of 10 days.The surveywas done inWoodstock,Wyn-

berg, the city centre, foreshore, Bellville,Goodwood, Strandfontein, Parow, SeaPoint, Portlands, Table View, Tafelsig,Mitchell’s Plain, Kuilsriver, Claremont,Lansdowne, Lentegeur, Muizenberg, Vre-dehoek, Oranjezicht, Retreat and Milner-ton. In each of these areas 50 or more home-less people were found.The City’s social development and early

childhood development directorate has re-vealed these findings. It is part of a researchproject that set out to determine the num-ber of street people in Cape Town, but alsoto gain a better understanding of the phe-nomenon of homelessness.Researcher Lynn Hendricks has present-

ed a report on the survey. She said the rea-sonswhy the surveywas donewas tounder-stand the phenomenon of homelessness,and to make recommendations for inter-vention strategies and implementationplans within the City.Hendricks explained how the survey was

done and said that the City was clustered,using the Cape Townmap book. Five teamswere allocated specific areas in Cape Town.Teamswalked and drove around their ar-

eas and team leaders ensured that every ar-ea marked in the map book was covered.“The state of homelessness aswe current-

ly face it is different to what we observedjust a few years ago,” Hendricks said.She explained that homelessness was an

ever-growing problem. To understand thephenomenon itwas important to look at dif-ferent aspects of the problem, including

characteristics of street people, pathwaysto homelessness, the homeless culture, exitstrategies for homelessness and interven-tions regarding homelessness.Suzette Little, mayoral committee mem-

ber for social development and early child-hood development, said the street peoplecount coincided with an investment of justunder R10m in the directorate’s street peo-ple programme.“The budget for this programme has

grown from R4.5m in 2013/14 to R7.8m in2014/15 to R9.7m in 2015/16 – an increase ofmore than 100%,” she said.Little said the research team deliberately

operated in the early morning hours tomake it easier to distinguish between peo-ple who slept on the street and so-called daystrollers or job seekers whomade their wayto economic hubs during daylight hours.“They did not only focus on the obvious

areas, like streets and bridges and buildingentrances, but also ventured into themoun-tains above Fish Hoek, for example, to

check for people,” she said.According toLittle, theCity hasmade tre-

mendous strides in recent years in its ef-forts to address the complex problem ofhomelessness in a holistic way.“It is not something that is unique toCape

Town, but Iwould like to think thatwe havecharted a good course in how we addressit,” she said.Little said the City had three objectives.The first was to help as many people as

possible who wanted to get off the streets.The second was preventative in nature –

to stop others frommigrating to the streets.And the third objective was to sensitise thepublic through their give responsibly cam-paign.“We cannot force people to accept our of-

fers of assistance and there are those whoprefer to remain on the streets because itsaves them from taking responsibility fortheir lives, but we are determined to helpeach and every person who wants to helpthemselves,” Little said.

City counts homeless

The City of Cape Town found more than 50 homeless people in Woodstock, as it did in otherareas of the city. One team came across a number of people under a bridge in the foreshore.

9.5kg dagga found on 2 menTwo Ethiopians were arrested at the TNTbuilding in 14th Avenue, Mutual Park afterthey were found with 9.5k of dagga.They were arrested on the spot with the dag-

ga with an estimated street value of R100 000.Kensington police spokesperson Sergeant

David Stemmet says they appeared in the CapeTown Magistrate’s Court on Friday.

You may think having a new tar surfacelaid on the pavement in front of your homewould be an improvement, but work doneby a con artist is proving to be anythingbut.

Residents have been warned of a man,who poses as a City of Cape Town contrac-tor, who offers to lay leftover asphalt on themunicipal property in front of their homesfor a small fee.

He reportedly carries out work, but usessubstandard material which soon startswashing off.

And residents are beingwarned that theymay be liable for hiring the scamster.

Brett Herron, mayoral committee mem-ber for transport, says he has heard aboutthe unapproved work taking place.

“Transport for Cape Town has been ad-vised that the man goes by the name of Ser-gio andapproaches residentswith the storythat he has leftover tar and needs to use itup. He offers to surface the footways infront of their homes for cash or goods.When they agree, he brings a team inwear-ing safety vests and does the work. He hasbecome threatening if residents refuse topay,” Herron says.

The material applied by the con artist isa mixture of old asphalt, slurry and char-coal. It is completely loose and soon startswashing off the footway into the stormwa-ter system, Herron says.

Ward councillor Jacques Weber says sixmonths ago, a resident contacted him say-ing she had paid for work to be done, whichhad lasted only two weeks. The City thenfixed the pavementwhere the damaged hadbeen caused.

Four property owners have already fall-en prey to the scam, leaving the City to re-pair the damaged surfaces. Herron saysresidents will now be held accountableshould they hire this man.

“Residents should not employ this com-pany as they may be held liable for damageto City property. Any work on pavementsand roads requires a permit for resurfac-ing,” he says.

Con manleaves aloose mess

Substandard tar laid by a scamster may seeresidents held liable for the damage.

Silver lining for netball teamEARL HAUPT

@EarlHaupt

The u.12 netball team of Willows Prima-ry School inHeideveld has exceeded ex-pectations and come home with silver

in theSouthAfrican schoolsnetball primaryschool championship.A few weeks ago, People’s Post reported

that the school qualified to take part in thetournament and was seeking sponsors tohelp the team members reach Pretoria.They received support from Islamic Relief

South Africa, which donated the kit andequipment the team needed to compete inPretoria. The teamdid themproud and justi-fied their reputation as one of SouthAfrica’stop primary school netball teams.Faadiel’s Transport Services provided the

travel arrangements which allowed theteam to get to and from Pretoria safely.Agnes Grootboom, a teacher at Willows

Primary and the team’s manager, is ecstaticabout the team’s achievement, but alsopoints out that the effortwas inno small partdue to the hard work and commitmentshown by her players.“The girls practised throughout the June

holidays in preparation for the tournament.During the first week of the holidays, someof them did not come to school for practicesessions. I had to go fetch them at home andsometimes (had to) wake them up, but afterI encouraged and motivated them, they be-came more dedicated and really workedhard during the practice sessions.”In the tournament itself, the team repre-

sented the Western Cape and swept pastteams from the North West, Eastern Capeand Limpopo.They reached the final in which they

would take on Gauteng.If qualifying to take part in the tourna-

ment was already seen as a tremendous

achievement, then winning their way to thefinal in the hope of taking home the honourswould be nothing short of extraordinary.The team managed to play to a 6-6 score

in the final, which meant that the matchwould have had to go into extra time for awinner to be crowned.Unfortunately, when the final whistle was

blown, Gauteng managed to eke out a 7-6

win, taking home the gold. Despite narrowlylosing out on top honours, Grootboom re-mains immensely proud of her charges.“They made the school, and the whole of

the Western Cape province, very proud. Iwas very happy and told the girls that thehard work we put in during the holidayspaid off.“If you work hard, you will succeed,” says

Grootboom.Grootboom is grateful for the sponsors

and school principal Kashief Abrahams,who, with their contributions, allowed themto take this journey.“I think the girls looked very good in their

new netball gear, tracksuits and bags. Ithink that this also contributed towardstheir winning spree,” says Grootboom.

The girls from the Willows Primary school under-12 netball team proudly stand with the silver medals they won at the South African SchoolsNetball primary school championship in Pretoria.

EARL HAUPT@EarlHaupt

Riders hoping to enter next year’s CapeTown Cycle Tour (CTCT) will have toadhere to new, groundbreaking entry

requirements.The Cape Town Cycle Tour Trust

(CTCTT), which organises and runs therace, has announced a new entry system.An online “ballot system” will now re-

place the first-come, first-serve process,which the Trust says will bring them in linewith other international events. Such a bal-lot system has never been used in a SouthAfrican race before.This is in an effort to give every potential

entrant a fair chance of competing in therace by avoiding a fast sell-out of spots,which has been the case in the race’s recenthistory. Entries to this year’s race sold outin a record eight hours.The Trust has also increased the number

of entries from 35 000 to 40 000, butDavidBel-lairs, a director of the Trust, confirms thatno corporate group entries will be allowed,encouraging those who have made use ofthese entries in the past to follow either thepublic entry process or take up the opportu-nity to support a charity.Bellairs says these charities will be allo-

cated 7000 entries and the Pedal PowerAsso-ciation (PPA) will receive 5000 entries,which will be given to random members ofthe Association.“To honour PPA as founders of the event,

its paid-up members will be offered an ‘ear-ly-bird’ opportunity to register their interestin an entry to next year’s race.“Thosewho are unsuccessful in the initial

PPAballotwill automatically beadded to thegeneral public ballot, starting on 9 Septem-ber, giving them an additional chance to beawarded an entry,” Bellairs explains.27 000 ballotswill be available to the gener-

al public, with a further 1000made availabletodevelopmental associationsaswell as sub-stitutions.Registration of interest in obtaining a bal-

lot will be free and will open on 9 Septemberat 13:00.The window for such registration will re-

main open until 25 September at 13:00.

Prospective riders can register their inter-est at www.cycletour.co.za.Doing so amounts to an indication of inter-

est only, and will not ensure entry, and willrequire prospective entrants to update theirdetails at the same time.In the week following the closure of the

window for registration, successful appli-cants will receive emails from the CTCT toconfirm that they have been awarded an en-try, which will cost R470 per local rider.International entrieswill remain openun-

til February, or until the allocation of 5000

riders is reached, and will cost R800 each.Unsuccessful applicants will also receive

an email and will be invited to enter via asupporting charity or by means of the offi-cial substitution process in January.Successful applicants will have until 26

October to pay and secure their entry. Pay-ment not received before this date, or the ap-plicant’s option to decline the entry, will re-sult in that entry being made available to apreviously unsuccessful rider.

Standard practiceAccording to Bellairs, online ballots have

been successful in top European and Ameri-can sporting events.“Such systems have become standard

practice at key sporting events around theworld, including the New York MarathonandBostonMarathon. TheTrust, alongwithits three co-naming rights sponsors – CapeArgus, Pick n Pay andMomentum – careful-ly researched and considered all options,and we are confident that our new processwill serve riders well and further entrenchthe global appeal of the CTCT,” he says.“Wewant to avoid thousands of applicants

rushing to be first in line as the entry portalopens, and being disappointed when theysell out in a matter of hours.“Our intention is to create a fairer system

as it allows for a greater and more inclusiveopportunity for securing an entry. Entrieswill be awarded at random, regardless ofwhether interest is registered on the first orthe last day of the registration period.We be-lieve the implementation of this new systemis the bestway forward,” concludes Bellairs.The CTCT takes place on 6 March next

year.
