Celebrating 10 successful years! September marks a very important milestone in the What’s On storied history. Ten years ago this month the magazine was taken over by its current publisher, Rentia Ellis, who purchased it from previous owners Ken and Lorraine Pulford. It’s certainly been an eventful 10 years! Prior to September 2004 the What’s On was a predominantly blackand-white or two-tone publication, and the magazine with distributed at only a select few retail outlets within the city limits. 10
Since then Rentia has transform it into a glossy, fullcolour magazine with a huge regional footprint, which immediately appealed to a whole new audience of readers and advertisers. Not only has the magazine doubled in size, up from its original 28 pages, but it has also added a well-trafficked website and a very popular social media presence. In fact, advertisers are now assured of having their ads seen not only locally and regionally, but also nationally and even internation-
DYNAMIC EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES 043 726 2225
ally! Our website and the electronic edition of the magazine draws hundreds of dedicated readers with East London links from all over the world, including the US, Europe, Australia and even China. Locally, the What’s On’s popularity has increased steadily throughout the last decade and we are exceptionally proud of the fact that it has become virtually synonymous with all things tourism- and leisure-related in East London. So much so that even local tourism officials often called us for information! “It’s been a huge privilege to produce this publication over the past 10 years, and to meet and interact with so many people in and around
our region,” Rentia says. “I am very proud of what we have achieved thus far but there are many exciting new developments in the pipeline that will ensure The What’s On continues to grow and continues to showcase our region’s many attractions.” While The What’s On will continue to exist in its present format, there are also plans afoot to launch a new digital edition, What’s On Weekly, which will ensure that our events and entertainment listings are always as fresh as possible. Look out also for our usual crop of giveaways and competitions as we ramp up to what will surely be a very busy festive season. Here’s to 10 successful years, and many more to come!

HAMBURG BACKPACKERS Keiskamma River
Hamburg is a bit of a time warp, it’s safe and you can enjoy real freedom here. It’s a tiny village which has not changed much in the last few years. There’s a small shop, a bottle store, a pub and an art centre, surrounded by a few houses. No ATM, supermarket or filling station here! It’s the way life used to be fifty years ago. It’s a warm friendly place where fishing stories are swopped, and family memories are made. Hamburg Backpackers is a clean, funky, affordable place to stay in the idyllic village of Hamburg on the Keiskamma river. Hamburg is on the coast between East London and Port Alfred. You’ll be surprised at how little it costs to stay with us. Hamburg backpackers is self-catering, with full kitchen facilites available. Guided Canoe Trails, team building, mountain biking, Adventure Biking, hiking, fishing, bird watching, relaxing, long clean beaches, something for everyone… The canoe trips on the Keiskamma
river are a really refreshing outdoor experience. Lots of birds, incredible views, a very scenic experience. No previous experience is necessary as the kayaks are all stable comfortable high quality sea kayaks. The paddles are the best available carbon fibre wing paddles. The hike on the hills overlooking the estuary is world class, a place where you can gather your thoughts and meditate. Our visitors book is very flattering to read, some of our international guests have said that our place is the best place they’ve been to! It’s difficult to describe the tranquillity that one experiences in Hamburg, you really need to come and enjoy it first -hand. Have a look at our facebook page, just search for Canoe trails Hamburg, there are hundreds of photos on our page.

Christian Dance Academy presents a dance and musical production based on the well-loved book “Fly, Eagle Fly!” by South African Author Christopher Gregorowski and choreographed by Kati Ansell at the Guild Theatre. This family friendly show features student dancers from CDA as well as DaySpring Dance. The story, set in the Transkei, is about a bird with a confused identity. Is it a chicken or is it an eagle? Beautiful and authentic costumes, humorous moments and some creative choreography will be on show. Under the direction of Kati Ansell it promises some vibrant foot tapping tunes, inspiring ballet and varied dance styles that will make you want to fly. Cast members from age four and beyond forty will be performing their hearts out as they raise funds for charity. There is a Gala performance on opening night and will include some snacks and drinks. A percentage of funds raised will be given to the Red Cross Children’s Hospital School, a charity of Gregorowski and the publisher, Niki Daly’s choice.
