‘Take action and inspire change’
he Volkswagen Sasol Racing team gets just one opportunity every season to compete in front of their home crowd in Uitenhage, Jeffreys Bay and Port Elizabeth.
This season rally fans will see the team back in Sasol colours. “For Volkswagen Sasol Racing the home event is an important one,” says Mike Rowe, head of Volkswagen Motorsport. “For many of the members of the team this is a chance to show their friends and family the hard work that gets done at every event around the country.” The rally begins tomorrow at the VW AutoPavilion when the cars leave from the ceremonial start at midday. Before this the vehicles will be held in parc ferme at the AutoPavilion parking lot and fans can mingle with the team, see the cars up close and take photos with their favourite rally competitors. According to route organiser Joe Fourie, the first stage takes place just around the corner at Volkswagen’s own vehicle test track, close to the new PeoplePavilion complex. That stage starts at 12:15 with the rally field heading out to the Longmore Forest for stages two to five. Stage six is at Fountain’s Mall in Jeffreys Bay at 16:54 with the final stage for Friday in the centre of the town at 19:00. “On Saturday the Kings Beach finale will be very exciting. While a short tar stage, we’ve designed it to be a dramatic finish and it will be a challenge for the competitors.”
=Vibrant murals, an impressive indigenous garden and 300 square metre public park were part of Volkswagen South Africa’s ‘Operation Algoa Road’ where employees and volunteers joined hands to beautify the road. The project is in honour of Nelson Mandela and in celebration of the bright rainbow nation he has nurtured. In action during the Show of Hands employee volunteerism campaign are (from left) Dr Zanele Fanti (Medical Practitioner at VWSA), Nonkqubela Maliza (Director of Corporate & Government Affairs at VWSA), Asanda Dayile, Amanda Koko and Thandiswa Zondani.

‘Madiba is amazing!’ toward this international icon. Today, people are urged to spend at least 67 minutes voluntarily helping others as part of the UN’s international Mandela Day campaign. The 67 minutes represents the 67 years in which Mandela devoted his life to the service of humanity as a human rights lawyer, a prisoner of con science, an international peacemaker, and the first democratically elected president of our country.
MICHAEL DORFLING Blessed, amazing and perfect are just a few of the words local residents used to describe Nelson Mandela this week in preparation for Mandela Day which is being celebrated today! “He’s an amazing guy and we all love him to bits” said one resident, and this sentence seems to capture the general attitude of our community
