It’s Christmas time! Retrieve those boxes packed with vibrant decorations and begin adorning your space, as Kouga is gearing up to shine this year. Be it with vibrant lights, shimmering baubles, playful elves, or dazzling tinsel.
In a bid to spread some holiday cheer, Kouga Municipality, in conjunction with Jeffreys Bay Tourism, is rallying everyone from residents to local businesses to join in spreading the holiday spirit by illuminating their homes or premises this festive season.
“The ambiance created by Christmas trees, lights and decorations is unparalleled in fostering a festive atmosphere,” said Kouga executive mayor, Hattingh Bornman. “This will significantly contribute to ensuring that the holiday spirit radiates throughout our region, even amid the numerous challenges we are encountering,” he added.
With the consent of home and business owners, establishments will be incorporated into an exciting light route, with the park situated at the corner of Noorsekloof Road and Dogwood Street as the central focal point.
The park will undergo a metamorphosis into a stunning display of lights and merriment, an authentic Christmas in the Park. Bornman encouraged residents to assist in illuminating the park.
The mayor asked that anyone who has spare Christmas lights, decorations, or any red items in good condition, kindly consider dropping them off at BayMEd Pharmacy or reaching out to Sam at 074 795 3073.
Home and business owners, who would like their premises to be included in the tour, can contact Leilani Coetsee at 084 681 3702 or email to leilanicoetsee19@gmail.com.
