Die Klopse-kultuur is al jare \u2019n groot deel van die gemeenskap van Wellington en l\u00ea baie Wellingtonners na aan die hart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Vir sommige is die jeug- en gemeenskapsontwikkelingsaspek \u2019n prioriteit en \u2019n eer om skares met hul unieke dans en musiek te vermaak. Alhoewel die passie ook in die verlede verdeeldheid in talle families veroorsaak het, is die spanne positief om verandering te bring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Na aanleiding van Paarl Post<\/i> se berig verlede week oor die klopsegemeenskap van Wellington wat weer eenheid wil bewerkstellig, is \u2019n opvolggesprek Dinsdag 9 Julie by St. Albans Prim\u00ear gehou. Hierdie inisiatief is weer eens deur die drie geesdriftige lede van Wellington klopse \u2013 Willem Walters (voormalige voorsitter), Jovan-re Cupido en Fiona Adams \u2013 gefasiliteer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die algemene gevoel om die dorp te verenig, is op die vergadering bevestig.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die fasiliteerders het dit duidelik gestel dat die doel nie is om \u2019n nuwe liggaam te begin nie, maar slegs om by die troepe self te hoor wat die rede is waarom daar nog \u2019n gesukkel is om een liggaam te vorm en hoe die probleem opgelos kan word. Onderskeie troepe van al twee unies \u2013 Drakenstein Coon Carnival Association (DCCA) en Wellington Minstrels \u2013 asook lede van die gemeenskap het die vergadering bygewoon om hul menings te lug.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Behalwe die visie vir eenheid wil die troepe die Drakenstein-munisipaliteit ook nader om die proses te steun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die troepe wil in Desember graag ook \u2019n gemeenskaps- \u201cRoad March\u201d hou om Wellingtonners te wys dat hulle poog om eenheid te herstel. Die road march<\/i> sal \u2019n begin wees, waarna troepe wat ten gunste van eenheid is en watter ni\u00e9, ge\u00efdentifiseer sal word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Een van die troepe, Young Stars Entertainers, meen die jeug verloor belangstelling weens die skeuring en dit lei tot moontlike bendebetrokkenheid en die misbruik van dwelms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Martina Abrahams, \u2019n oudbestuurslid, voel die gemeenskap moet verenig word en bereid wees om die pad te stap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Willem Walters meen daar is mense wat die kultuur \u201cvir \u2019n ride<\/span> vat, en dis hoekom ons die vergadering beroep het om dit stop te sit, want van ons leiers het geen respek vir ons kultuur nie\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Walters voel dit is tyd vir \u2019n nuwe geslag om die leisels te neem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2019n Opvolgvergadering word Dinsdag 30 Julie 19:00 by St. Albans Prim\u00ear gehou. Alle gemeenskapslede wat \u2019n positiewe bydrae wil lewer, word uitgenooi.
