DIE ekonomie is taai en het al veroorsaak dat talle gevestigde ondernemings hulle deure moes sluit. Nog een wat moontlik di\u00e9 stap sal moet neem is die bekendeTolbos restaurant en padstal by Patensie in die Gamtoosvallei.<\/p>\n
Dit gons op sosiale media vandat die eienaars bekend gemaak het dat die Tolbos dalk in die wind gaan rol.<\/p>\n
Die gewilde bymekaarkomplek, waar mense soms hulle pakkies laat aflewer, spesiale geleenthede vier, inligting oor die Gamtoosvallei kry en etes kan geniet met produkte uit die vallei, is besig om al stiller te raak.<\/p>\n
In \u2019n openhartige inskrywing op die oudste padstal in Patensie se Facebook blad, het Carin Scheepers en haar ma Hetsie Scheepers bekend gemaak dat die onderneming finansie\u00ebl in die knyp is en dalk binnekort moet sluit.<\/p>\n
Vir meer as 33 jaar is Tolbos die hartklop van Patensie \u2013 nie net as \u2019n onderneming nie, maar as \u2019n staatmaker inligtingsburo vir toeriste en gaste. Hulle kan kundige inligting verskaf veral oor die skilderagtige Baviaanskloof wat \u2019n w\u00eareld erfenisgebied is.<\/p>\n
\u201cDie sluiting van Tolbos sal nie net lei tot werkverliese van die vriendelike personeel nie \u2013 dit sal ook \u2019n impak h\u00ea op die klein besighede in die Baviaanskloof wat afhanklik is van verwysings na hulle, vir hulle bestaan.<\/p>\n
\u201cOns vra nie donasies nie, maar almal se ondersteuning in hierdie moeilike tyd. Kom drink \u2019n lekker koppie koffie, koop van die plaaslike produkte, geniet \u2019n smullekker ete en vertel ander van Tolbos. Die ondersteuning sal \u2019n reuse verskil maak sodat ons kan voortgaan om die gemeenskap en besoekers met liefde te bedien,\u201d pleit hulle.<\/p>\n
\u201cOns is dankbaar vir elke gereelde ondersteuner wat ons in staat gestel het om kop bo water te hou in die uitdagende tye. Hierdie is nie \u2019n maklike pleidooi nie- ons is by breekpunt. Ons vertrou op die sterk gemeenskap en hoop van harte dat ons di\u00e9 storm sal oorleef,\u201d skryf Hetsie en Carin.<\/p>\n
Deur storms, droogtes, vloede en hittegolwe is Tolbos daar met hulp, raad en lafenis. Met \u2019n hupstoot sal hulle dit weer kan deurstaan.<\/p>\n
