BLOUBERGSTRAND: HATS OFF TO LOCALS
Citizens restore beach sign KAILIN DANIELS @k10daniels

isitors passing through Bloubergstrand were in awe of the refurbished sign after members of the Blouberstrand Village Residents Association jumped on board to have it restored. This as the popular Bloubergstrand sign deteriorated over the years due to the weath-
er and lack of maintenance, leaving it grey and dull. Now the bright blue sign catches the eye of all who drive on Otto du Plessis Drive, welcoming visitors to the area. Lizzy Botha from the Bloubergstrand Village Residents Association said they asked for assistance via social media at first and ideas were provided. “Nobody really came forward and only
gave ideas, but it never actually materialised. Then I discussed this with the members on the committee and other residents in the area and everyone raised money. “We appointed a painter, but he did not charge us a cent. We decided on the blue colour and to make the wall more modern to withstand weather conditions. “That is why we decided to have three coats of paint, so that the wall can last
longer,” Botha said. The wall was sandblasted, leaving it smooth before it was painted. Botha added that the entrance to Bloubergstrand was also refurbished, all thanks to the beautifying of the Blouberstrand Village team. One of the residents, Petrus Philips, said he was very impressed when he saw the new sign. V To page 2
