Several organisations and neighbourhood watches attended a meeting at Grassy Park Civic Centre last week to vote for a new Community Police Forum (CPF). The meeting was also attended by officials from the the provincial police department, Grassy Park police, the Independent Electoral Commis- sion and the Department of Community Safety (Docs). Provincial Crime Prevention Officer for the South African Police Service Brigadier Sizakhele Dyantyi said the meeting had to be postponed due to the “correct processes not being followed.” Dyantyi gave the floor an opportunity to raise concerns as station commander Colonel Fana Dlamini said no report was available from the CPF as the current body is an “interim struc- ture.” “The interim structure was elected during June and is headed by the interim chairperson Abe Braaf. Due to the structure being a temporary arrangement, no report is available for the body,” Dlamini said. Once given the opportunity, organ- isations scrambled to have their voices heard. Fuad Titus, chairperson of Pelican Park Neigh- bourhood Watch accused the interim CPF of being “rigged.” “The procedures were not made clear to every- body attending tonight and if you ask most people in this hall, they won’t be able to tell you what the role and functions of the CPF is,” he said. Titus demanded the elections that were to take place on the night be stopped as the proper proce- dures were not followed. “I am disappointed in what the Colonel is tell- ing us about there not being a report. These things should have been in order for this specific meeting,” Titus said. Several attendees voiced their agreement. Titus also accused the station commander Colo- nel Fana Dlamini as being responsible for the col- lapse of the interim CPF structure. “He told me he does not acknowledge the inter- im chairperson Abe Braaf. Yet, he is seen driving Braaf around. There are double standards here that needs to be addressed,” he fumed. Braaf retorted saying at the election which took place earlier this year was an “agreement.” “It was agreed that I would stand as an interim chairperson. There was no election,” Braaf said. One resident then remarked the representative from Grassy Park police who facilitated at the June meeting, should also have been present at last week’s meeting. “So there can be clarity and a way forward.” He further commented on the mudslinging and said it was “unfair”. “It’s not fair on those who came here straight form work to listen to this. It’s like we’re sitting with a bunch of children bickering amongst each other,” he said. Dyantyi experienced difficulty controlling the crowd as several attendees shouted and spoke at the same time. When order was restored a new date was set. Dyantyi assured that “proper processes will be followed”. “When we convene again we must be sure that what transpired tonight does not happen again on the new election date.

CHARITY
Dress up for a good causeMONIQUE DUVAL
@monique_duval
It’s that time of the year when women andgirls kick off their boots, get out the ra-zors, warm up the wax and find a new col-
our to brighten up their toe nails.Yes, summer is here and soon we will see
women across Cape Town show off the legsthey have been hiding all winter by wearingtheir favourite dresses.Somewill go for short and tight, while oth-
erswill opt for the skater dresseswhich com-plementmost body types. Still others will gofor a fuller length maxi-style dresses.Whatever your preference, a dress is the
one clothing item that helps women cele-brate their femininity.This year a local NPO is calling on Cape
Town women to wear dresses for a goodcause.MilkMatters, situated atMowbrayMater-
nityHospital, has launched theirDresses forLives campaign where women get theirfriends, family and colleagues to pledge do-nations for each day they wear a dress.
HistoryAccording to their website, Milk Matters
was formed in 2003 by a group of lactationconsultants and two mothers.The group was inspired by the Ithemba
Lethu Breastmilk Bank in Durban and iden-tified a similarneed inCapeTown toprovidebreastmilk to infants who had been aban-doned or orphaned as a result of their moth-ers suffering from HIV or Aids.They have three in-house milk banks at
various hospitals.
CampaignCoordinator Jenny Wright explains the
idea originated from one of their supporterswho decided she wanted to raise awarenessand funds and asked friends and family tosponsor her for each day she wore a dressin December.“She raised sufficient funding to enable us
to go ahead with redeveloping our website,a project that is nearing completion,”Wright says.This year she approached the organisa-
tion and challenged staff to join her.After gaining support, the team thenopted
to invite breastmilk donors and other sup-porters to participate by either wearingdresses too and getting sponsors or by spon-soring a woman of the Milk Matters team.
NameWright says the team thought long and
hard about aname to describe the campaign.“We wanted the name to capture what we
are doing.We arewearing dresses so that ul-timately more premature babies who weighless than 1.5kg can have access to donorbreastmilk, which can undoubtedly be life-saving for them,” she says.By wearing dresses the organisation
hopes to raise funds for the breastmilk bank,as well as awareness to get more mothers todonate milk.Wright says just 50ml of breastmilk can
feed a baby of less then 1.5kg for 24 hoursand it can save their life in those first criticalfew weeks if their own mother is unable toprovide the breastmilk they need.
Signing upWright says women wanting to partici-
pate are required to sign up with the organi-sation and gather support from theirfriends. For each day they wear a dress forthe month of December, their friends agree
to make a donation tothe organisation.The campaign also
appeals to men to as-sist who can helpfund a staff member,friend or relative par-ticipating.Wright explains
once the final total israised they will as-sesswhat themost ur-gent needs are andwhere the money canbe used to make thebiggest impact.“Someof themoney
will be used for publicawareness materials,as without things likeposters and pam-phlets mothers willnot know they can do-nate their milk andwewouldnot have do-nor breastmilk forthe babies,” she says.Wright further
adds that the organi-sation is in need ofnew freezers.“With a caring, in-
volved community, 31days, a few dresses–and just think of theimpact we can have –donor breastmilk isgoing to more of ourmost vulnerable pre-mature babies with the life-saving benefitsit brings.Helpus givehopeand life to prema-ture babies when there might otherwise
have been none”.V For more information call 082 895 8004 or [email protected]

GUY FAWKES
Fireworksunder scrutinyMONIQUE DUVAL
@monique_duval
A call has been made to ban fireworksin False Bay.This follows a report submitted to
the South Peninsula asking for commentson the current sites where residents are al-lowed to discharge fireworks.Speaking during the meeting several
councillors raised their concerns aboutfireworks and other activities on GuyFawkes Day.Councillor Shaun August said the day
was no longer enjoyable as children alsothrew paint at each other, attack commut-ers and cause chaos.“They even cover their hands with black
nugget and place blades between theirhands and smear people. They inflict harmand cause fear,” he said.August explained these activities went
“hand-in-hand” with the discharging offireworks.“I don’t even know why we allow fire-
works on 5 November. If we take the fire-works away maybe we can deal with theseother activities,” he adds.While the subcouncil has a demarcated
area at Sunrise Beach, several councillorsreported fireworks in residential areas.Strandfontein councillor Elton Jansen
described the activities as “evil” and saidsomething needed to be done.In addition to these activities, Jansen
said animals and pets were badly affectedwhen fireworks were discharged in resi-dential areas.
“We find all sorts of sick activities wherepeople even stick fireworks at the back ofanimal and set them alight,” he said.Subcouncil chairperson Felicity Pur-
chase described the events as thuggery andagreed something needed to be done.Proportional councillor Patricia Francke
said Guy Fawkes was also used by gang-sters to fool police.She explained as fireworks are dis-
charged in Ocean View, residents were of-ten confused.“There are fireworks on the one side and
gunshots on the other. It is hard to tell thedifference and gangsters know this,” shesays.Francke also raised concerns about the il-
legal sale of fireworks in residential com-munities.Councillor Simon Liell-Cock said the re-
strictions should not apply to those whohad pyrotechnics licences.According to the report thereare eight de-
marcated areas in the subcouncil area.The report calls on councillors to review
the sites and suggest alternatives as a resultof requests from the public for additionalsites.There are various criteria for a potential
site to discharge fireworks mostly focusingon the proximity to buildings, telephonelines and other potentially explosive sites.Councillors resolved to call for a ban on
fireworks in the subcouncil area and to pro-hibit shopkeepers from selling fireworks.V Do you think fireworks should be banned? Startingwith the word “Post”, SMS your thoughts to 32516.SMSes cost R1.

A different anti-drinking campaignA new multimedia campaign highlight-ing the dangers of drinking and walkinghas been launched.The #WalkSafe campaign is aimed at
pedestrians and comprises Xhosa post-ers and radio advertisements, as well asan online campaign aimed at conveyingthis message to targeted areas where re-search and statistics have shown peopleto be most affected.Provincial road death statistics show
that pedestrian deaths made up 44% ofall road deaths this year, with over 450pedestrians killed.“We know that poorer communities
are disproportionately represented inthese numbers, with black males, aged20 to 34, being the highest risk demo-graphic,” provincial Transport and Pub-
lic Works minister Donald Grant says.“Recent studies have also showna link
between pedestrian deaths and alcoholconsumption, with alcohol being foundto be present in 58% of pedestrian fatali-ties where blood was tested, and 90% ofmale pedestrians that were killed atnight.”The campaign is live on the Safely
Home website, www.safelyhome.west-erncape.gov.za, and on Twitter as@WCGovSafelyHome’shashtags#Walk-Safe and #SafeRoadsForAll.Early this month, Safely Homewill re-
lease drunk-driving radio messages torun parallel with #WalkSafe. It will alsoboost the law enforcement efforts of theprovincial Department of Transport andmunicipal Traffic Services.

Thumbs up forstreet namesCHEVON BOOYSEN
@ChevonBooysen
Thembilihle, Sue, Margy, Florence andShameez. These are some of the pro-posed street names which have been
approved for thenewhousing project inPel-ican Park.Subcouncil 19 made the decision at a
meeting on Monday 17 November.The Thembilihle Village Housing Project
on erf 934 in Pelican Park, which stretchesfor 3 1668ha in Buck Road, will house 219family homes for domestic workers.The project will consist of semi-detached
and duplex properties.A report (“Housing plan for domestic
workers”, People’s Post, 24 July) indicatedthe R41m project will be funded by the pro-vincial human settlements department.The street names proposed were inspired
by individuals who were instrumental insetting up the housing project.Suggestions for the streets include Them-
bilihle Street, which will be one of the mainroads to access the area, as well as FlorenceCrescent, and Sue, Margy Keegan andShameez streets.Suggestions for the courtyards include
Zingisa, Ubuntu and Akker, as well asLukhanyo Square.Alternative street names are Fazlyn, Azi-
za, Thobeka, Thandeka, Katlego and Noma-da.According to a report submitted to the
subcouncil, the proposed street names un-derwent the required public participationprocess.“The proposed street names were also ad-
vertised in council’s internal departments.No objections or responses to the streetnames were received,” the report reads.Ward councillor Shaun August says the
majority of the beneficiaries have alreadybeen identified and all are happy that theywill be receiving homes.“Wehave informedabout 90%of the bene-
ficiaries and they were all happy to receive
the news. They are set to move into theirnew homes by March 2015 and have re-ceived communication of this,” Augustsays.The beneficiaries of the new homes had
to go through a qualifying process of whichsome did not make the cut.“One of the requirements was that the
beneficiaries with a salary more thanR3 500 do not qualify. In some cases wefound that some of the domestic workersearned more than this sum and new benefi-ciaries had to be identified through theCity’s database,” he adds.Currently sewerage pipes and roadworks
are being completed in the area, Augustconfirms.

In a bid to stem bullying, a Salt River or-ganisation is taking the message of anti-violence to youth online.The Reform Foundation is launching an
online campaign to prevent bullying afternoticing an increase in violence amongyouths, says founder Preston Jongbloed.For over 14 years, Jongbloed has worked
in youth development, experiencing thechallenges facing the younger generation.“As amotivational speakerhaving spoken
to over 400 000 pupils at various schools andjuveniles centres, I have seen an increase inviolence at schools over the last year,” hesays.This, together with a close family friend
losing a son to suicide, inspired Jongbloedto tackle the culture of bullying.A study released by survey company Pon-
dering Panda found that 57% of school pu-pils had experienced bullying.Of these, 26% said this bullying had been
physical and 45% of respondents said dan-gerous weapons were brought to school.“I found that bullying is on the increase
not just in schools and colleges, but also inworkplaces. The foundation was then estab-lished to promote anti-bullying awareness,”Jongbloed explains.In addition, one in 10 of the survey’s re-
spondents felt there was no one to turn towhen they’ve been bullied.The foundation is now launching an on-
line campaign called #betheone, which willfeature a roadshow of celebrities such asJonathan Rubain, Neville D, QuintonManuels, Jason Pretorius and ShermerLeedenberg will visit schools to speak out
against increasing bullying and encouragefurther education.“This gives our celebrities the platform to
share their stories of overcoming their cir-cumstances and carving out successful ca-reers by making good decisions,” he adds.
Workshops are also available for teachers,parents and corporate organisations toequip them with the tools to combat bully-ing, Jongbloed explains.“Bullying is the result of something deep-
er. Our approachwill be to use character de-
velopment and career direction as a pillarto strengthen victims to be empowered. Wewill look to build value systems and how tobreak the culture of manipulation,” he says.V Visit www.refocusfoundation.co.za or Refocus Foundation on Facebook for more information

Warm sun on your shoulders, soft sand betweenyour toes.Summer is here. Andwith it, long days relaxing
at the beach.But this, for many, includes a cold beer (or several) de-
spite law prohibiting alcohol on beaches.Over the weekend, the City of Cape Town’s Law En-
forcement Department confiscatedmore than 150l of alco-hol from the various beaches and issuedmore than a doz-en alcohol-related fines.In terms of the City’s bylaws, possession and consump-
tion of liquor in beach areas is prohibited. Any offendersare liable to have their alcohol confiscated and be issuedwith a R500 fine as well as a written notice to appear incourt.This is little deterrent formany, with officers confiscat-
ing over 8 000l of alcohol from beaches across the metrolast year.This culture of drinking has deep roots in the Cape.The dop system, introduced after the abolishment of
slavery, allowed a farmer to pay his employees with alco-hol instead of wages. We put ourselves and our familiesat risk through high alcohol consumption.More than threemillion people died from using alcohol
in 2012, the World Health Organisation has said.The study found South Africans consume, on average,
over 8l of pure alcohol every year. However, a large por-tion of alcohol consumption is unreported, which meansthis average could be as high as 11l.For our drinking patterns, on a scale of one to five –
with five representingmost risky– South Africans scoreda four.And despite the best efforts of lifeguards, every year we
lose loved ones on the city’s beaches.Many of these deaths could have been avoided if the al-
cohol had been left at home.Perhaps it’s time we started guarding our own lives,
starting with corking the wine.

Votes are inSAMANTHA LEE
@Samantha_Lee121
A new group of crimefighters havebeen elected to serve on theLansdowne Community Police Fo-
rum (CPF).The election was postponed for 16 days
and were held on Tuesday 18 November.It got off to a rocky start as residents
questioned the CPF constitution and elec-toral process.
Mike Kabat was elected as chairpersonand said he is excited to work with the restof the executive. “I am sure we will allwork well together and I look forward tomaking changes in Lansdowne,” he says.
There were 16 registered organisationswho took to the ballot box to elect their newexecutive.
Along with Kabat, Yvonne Adams waselected as deputy chairperson, AdamHaupt as secretary, Riyaahd Kearns as as-sistant secretary, RiefkahMoos as treasur-er, Ashraf Kenny as public relations offic-er and Saawmiet Moos as project co-ordi-nator.
Most attendees appeared happy with theelections. Kabat thanked the outgoingchairperson Theta Sithole who, in turn,wished the new executive well for theirfive-year term.
Kabat said he is ready for the task.“I have 12 years experience serving on
CPF boards and I like to keep meetingsshort and to the point,” he said.
The new executive will soon meet to dis-cuss their five-year plan and the way for-ward.
Sithole hopes this forum will be treatedwith respect and have a pleasant tenure intheprecinct.Organisations from thepoliceprecinct which covers Lansdowne, Groen-
vlei, Kenwyn, Ottery, Wetton Belthorne,Mountview, Rondebosch East, Crawford,Penlyn Estate or Lansdowne Industria canjoin the forum by completing registrationforms.V For more information or to register your organisation phone Sergeant Nkululeko Mnyaka on082 499 3870.

Get into this barber chairCape Town’s favourite barbers are
back with anecdotes which leave youwith more than just a haircut or
shave.David Isaacs andOscarPetersen, aswell

Barber has become a Cape Town institu-tion and is widely regarded as one of theMother City’s most successful comedyshows.Directed by Heinrich Reisenhofer, the
show has turned Isaacs and Petersen intoovernight sensations as they charm audi-enceswithhilariousCapeFlats charactersand humour.“For us it is not just about the comedy
or showmanship, it is a true celebrationof our community and a way of life, andhow we can all laugh together,” explainsReisenhofer.“We have made some exciting changes
and updates to the show, and we reallywant to use this season as our way ofthanking audiences for their loyalty andsupport over the years.”The mockumentary takes a humorous
look at Cape Flats community life and itsprogress in the 20 years of democracy. Allthe favourite characters will return andare guaranteed to leave the audience institches.“It’s hard to believe that it was 15 years
ago when we first performed Joe Barber
in a tiny 20-seatertheatre,” Pe-tersen says.“There were on-
ly two people inthe audience andwe took in a mereR30 that night. Infact, we kept thethree R10 noteswe earned and de-cided to sign ournames and thedate on thebackofthe notes, know-ing that one day itwould meansomething reallyspecial. Whowould havethought?”Isaacs de-
scribes the show’ssuccess since thatfirst performanceas a “rollercoaster ride of laughter andfun”. “We created six episodes of sold-outshows locally, nationally and abroad.There is still no bettermoment for us thanmeeting our audience after each show andhearing their stories and how they relateto the characters as if they were real,” hesays.“Joe Barber is ultimately about laugh-
ter, community and family. It is truly aprivilege for us to have the warmest, loud-est, most loyal audiences that any showcan have.”Isaacs adds it is an honour to have chil-
dren grow up and relate to the characters.
The show will run from Tuesday to Sat-urday at 20:00. Tickets for Tuesday toThursday performances cost R95 and R130on Fridays and Saturdays.Joe Barber DVDs will also be on sale.There will also be a the special New

Call for a ‘zero tolerance approach’As government and NPOs create awarenessof woman and child abuse during the 16 Daysof Activism campaign, civil society is callingfor year-round action.
More than 30 civil organisations havepartnered in protest, calling for a nationalstrategy to address gender-based violencesaying the rape, battery and assault of wom-en each year needs to be prioritised.
In her speech to Parliament on Friday 21November, national minister of Women andChildren Susan Shabangu announced theministry would conduct provincial dia-logues to better understand the causes andconsequences of poverty and inequality, todevelop a research agenda and to inform theNational Strategic Plan (NSP) on Gender-Based Violence.
While civic groups welcome this public re-commitment to the “currently stalled and ill-defined” NSP process, it is simply notenough, the partnership says in a statement.
Civil society groups are demanding a NSPthat is fully funded and commits significantnew resources; is developed through anopen, inclusive and consultative process;and creates real accountability by reviving
and reconstituting the moribund NationalGender-Based Violence Council.
Mara Glennie, executive director of Tearswhich is one of the participating organisa-tions in this week’s actions, explains:
“NGOs are frequently being asked to carryout work in responding to gender-based vio-lence which is the responsibility of the state.The state has essentially outsourced manyessential statutory services to NGOs, butwithout funding [the organisations],” Glen-nie says.
According to a recent study by KPMG,gender-based violence costs South Africa upto R42bn a year – roughly 1% of the country’sGDP.
Yet, as research from the UK shows, forevery £1 spent on prevention, the countrystands to save £6 on response services.
Gender-based violence is on the rise, saysSaartjie Baartman Centre for Women andChildren director Shaheema McLeod.
“Gender-based violence continues to in-crease in the province and the rest of the
country,” she says.McLeod believes this is owing to an ineffi-
cient judicial system, lack of awarenesswithin the police force and ignorancearound what constitutes abuse.
“The bulk of cases go unreported – fear,shame, denial and further abuse from theperpetrator are some of the reasons for this.There is very little victim support and only3% of offenders are found guilty of the crimecommitted,” she says.
“Campaigns such as the 16 Days of No Vio-lence are an excellent vehicle for creatingawareness around abuse. However, to reallysee a difference, we need to change our be-haviour and the belief systems that are sodeeply rooted in our country.”
The Saartjie Baartman Centre, which wasestablished 15-years ago, has assisted morethan 100 000 victims of crime and violence.
Over the past few years, the Athlone-basedorganisation has seen a 65% increase in thenumber of women and children seeking as-sistance.
In South Africa, a woman is raped everyfour minutes or killed every six hours by herintimate partner.
One in five women are forced into sex byan intimate partner.
More than 100 cases of child abuse are re-ported every week and a child is sexually as-saulted every three minutes.
“There should be zero tolerance towardsviolence, no matter what day of the year itis. Education starts with our children. Un-fortunately, all to often victims of abuse be-come the abusers – this is the cycle that wehave to break, only then will we see cam-paigns such as the 16 Days initiative havinga real impact,” McLeod says.
Legal Resources Centre spokespersonCharlene May says government is obliged toassist in reducing gender violence.
“Government has a constitutional obliga-tion to address gender based violence in astrategic, coordinated and funded manner.Women in South Africa’s constitutionalrights to dignity, equality and freedom fromviolence will continue to be violated as longas there is no national strategic plan to ad-dress gender-based violence,” she says.
BYRNES AVENUE
Fence a welcome barrierMONIQUE DUVAL
@monique_duval
Since the erection of a fence, the wor-ries at Wynberg Civic Centre no long-er exist.
For several months neighbourhoodwatches and residents have raised thealarm about vagrants taking shelter at thecentre.
In addition police have reported severaldrug-related arrests of those seen takingshelter in the doorways.
In response ward councillor Monty Oliv-er, with the use of ward allocation funds,erected a fence at the back of the centre.
Neighbourhood watch coordinator Abie-da Joseph says the first phase was complet-ed on Friday 21 November and the va-grants were removed.
Joseph says during patrols, they noticeda marked decline in the number of strollersin Harpford Avenue.
However, reports have surfaced of thehomeless group having relocated to a parkin Byrnes Avenue.
Joseph says this is cause for concern andthe watch suggests a fieldworker bebrought in to assist. “The watch is notheartless but this group caused big prob-lems at the civic centre. We can’t keep mov-ing them along but we must see if a field-worker can assist,” she says.
Due the number of arrests among thisgroup the neighbourhood watch is con-cerned about the safety risk posed to resi-dents in Byrnes Avenue.
According to Wynberg police spokesper-son Warrant Officer Silvino Davids the
fence has “made quite a difference”.“The fence has been welcomed. It has
been a long process but we are alreadystarting to see progress,” he said.
Davids explains the “bad characters”have since moved elsewhere but police are
monitoring the situation.“We have received reports about people
moving into the park in Byrnes Avenueand ask that people please contact Law En-forcement to move them,” he says.
Davids says all illegal activities in public
spaces should be reported to the police sta-tion.V If you have problems with vagrants phone the LawEnforcement call centre on (021) 596 1999. To report crime phone Wynberg Police Station on(021) 799 1300 or your sector van.

City’s details its festive season planThe City of Cape Town’s Festive Season Co-ordinating Committee has drafted a compre-hensive plan to ensure the highest level ofpreparedness for the busy holiday period.
The plan cuts across a number of depart-ments and focus areas include emergencyresponse, policing, ensuring safety at publicamenities such as beaches, road safety,cleansing, enforcement of bylaws, and sub-stance abuse.
The City will make the following servicesavailable over the festive season:
V 1430 Metro Police, Law Enforcement andtraffic officers patrolling roads and beaches,and conducting operations across the penin-
sula;V 900 firefighters available for any major
incidents;V 240 firefighters on shift at any given time
at the City’s 30 fire stations;V An additional 120 seasonal firefighters;V 250 lifeguards available on rotational ba-
sis – on average there will be around 70 life-guards manning City beaches on any givenday; and
V 1864 temporary staff members to en-hance the City’s cleansing services capacity.
This year, the City’s transport departmentwill pilot a transport plan for the AtlanticSeaboard on the Day of Goodwill (Friday 26December) and New Year’s Day (Thursday1 January).
This plan will see a dedicated team of 20traffic officers deployed along this route tomanage traffic flow on the two major beachdays.
The Community Services Directorate willensure that blue flag beaches are kept in apristine condition.
The department will also prioritise thesafety of beachgoers.
The City has entered into a partnershipwith Lifesaving Western Province, who willdeploy 250 lifeguards. In addition, the organ-isation’s regular volunteer services will bestationed at all popular beaches.
The City’s plan provides for top-up clean-ing services covering all business areas, sce-nic routes and beaches throughout themetropole.
A total of 1864 temporary staff from the Ex-panded Public Works Programme (EPWP)will be deployed to various areas and willprovide the added capacity needed.
PUBLIC SAFETY
Calm watersOver 250 trained and accredited life-
guards will be deployed to variousbeaches between 10:00 and 18:00 daily
during the festive season.This service will be boosted by lifesaving
clubs on some beaches, Lifesaving WesternProvince’s volunteer services and the Na-tional Sea Rescue Institute.
In addition, there will be 218 lifeguards onduty who will oversee the City’s 36 publicswimming pools over the peak holiday sea-son, says City of Cape Town Mayoral Com-mittee member for Community Services andSpecial Projects Belinda Walker.
“We want to emphasise that safety is ashared responsibility between the City andour beachgoers and pool users. While theCity does provide lifeguards in conjunctionwith our partners, this service does not existto take the place of a parent or guardian’ssupervision of children,” she says.
Beachgoers should swim only in designat-ed swimming areas indicated by flags andonly where lifeguards are on duty.
“There are also law enforcement officerspatrolling beaches to assist in ensuring that
people swim only in designated areas. Weask that all people respect the instructionsof both lifeguards and law enforcement offic-ers and also report any irresponsible behav-iour in the water, such as people swimmingoff the rocks, so that they can preemptivelykeep people safe,” she says.
Beachgoers are encouraged to swim onlywhere there are lifeguards and where signsindicate that it is safe to do so.
Do not swim in an area if there are no life-guards present. Only swim in areas whereother people are present. Swim in groupsand advise friends or family when you goswimming.
Do not swim when there are marine ani-mals such as whales, dolphins and seals inthe area or when a marine animal carcasshas washed up onto the beach.
If you find yourself in trouble, raise yourarm and wave to attract the lifeguard’s at-tention. Try not to panic, as this will makeyou tired.
If you see someone in trouble in the sea,alert the lifeguards or find trained help. Donot put your own life in danger.

In search of the doubleJOSEPH PILLAY
There’s no stopping a rampant Gl-enthorn-Athlone side who are wellon their way to perhaps clinching
their third consecutive league andknockout cup double.After beating archrivals Westridge
Yankees 6-0 in their quarterfinal SuperLeague knockout encounter at TurfhallStadium on Sunday, they proved thatthey will be difficult to stop.CoachWayneMay’sGlenthorn are still
sporting an unbeaten run to date andwere in full flight eliminating Yankeesfrom the silverware accolades for the sec-ond time in recent weeks.Glenthorn recorded a 4-1 win in a
league assignment.Nonetheless, Glenthorn pitcher Lau-
ren Mulder held her nerve and pitched asteady game with a well marshalled fieldthat ably assisted her in registering ashut-out victory to her name, consider-ing that Yankees loaded the bases twicein the third and sixth frame but on bothoccasions their runners were left strand-ed due to poor batting.Mulder in her 6 inning contest claimed
one scalp - that of Candice Bull - and al-lowed one base-on-ball while she gave upeight scattered hits of which Aimee-LeeCampbell (3-3) and Jacky Adonis (1-2)faired best for Yankees with the bat.Another aspect of the Yankees defeat
which their coaching staff of Natasha deKlerk and Janine (JJ) Johnson will haveto address is that even though their side
occupied the bases quite regularly andthat eight were left stranded – a topic upfor discussion is that runs dried up be-cause none of the lower order batters –which included Tammy Golding, Rox-anne Ohlsson, Megan Cable, Charne Er-asmus, Sharnel Whiteboy and CarlaWichman – could make an impact.Glenthorn smacked nine hits off Yan-
keeswithCarlaSwanepoel, CarlyMulderand Courtney Stevens each clobbering athree bagger off lead-off pitcher CarlkyDavids.Davids occupied the mound for three
innings, faced 15 batters, allowed sevenhits and gave up one walk while reliefpitcher, Megan Cable, who was perhapsbrought on too late and should have start-ed did duty for the next two batting turnsand did not live up to the capable highstandard she normally sets in a game.Cable walked three batters, did not
fanned any of the ten batters she facedand allowed two hits with Carly Mulderbatting 2-3, Nick Fortune and CarlaSwanepoel each 1-2 performing well withthe bat for Glenthorn.Defending champions Glenthorn will
face VOB in the semifinals scheduled for1 Februarynext year afterVOBhad earli-er in the day defeated Kenfac Phillies 4-1.Cathy Buckley who pitched Falcons to
a shut-out 10-0 victory over Tanta Sporttook revenge on the latter for the shockleague defeat (3-2) the previous day.Falconswill square-up to StMartin’s in
the other semi-final with the cup finalspencilled in for March 15.
