Entertainment was also provided in the form of artists such as Marimba Vibrations, Tony Nelson,
Emil Struwig, Darryl Walters and Kari who greatly added to the overall success of the day.
The guests were also encouraged to bid on the Big 5 Auction items, which were donated by the event’s official sponsors, and at the end of the day an amazing R182,400.00 had been raised in support of the work of the MS Society.
