A big Thank you to Gavin Bolton and Grant Adams and Woodworx Marimbas for the wonderful work that they have done in training the amaWolseley Marimba Band, for the personal interest they have taken in this group and all the encouragement they have give us all. Your advice has been invaluable to us and you are true to your "Play it Forward" tag line. The members of the amaWolseley Marimba Band and management are eternally grateful for your guidance. The Group underwent further training this past weekend on 20 and 21 July and have perfected their performance and even learnt two new songs. We believe they will make Wolseley, the Witzenberg Valley and indeed South Africa Proud.
If it were not for the generosity of Charles Banks from Terroir Capital and the organisation skills of David Bernhal II of Coastal Luxury Management, this dream could not be real. This opportunity is going to reach way beyond this group of children and create further opportunities for other children to learn to play the marimbas too. Thank you, Thank you, Thank You!
