Cheers whenwhales are freedNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

As the winter brings an increased numberof whales to our waters, the chances in-crease that the giants become entangled inropes, nets and lobster traps.

Such cases are rising, says South AfricanWhale Disentanglement Network(SAWDN) head Mike Meyers.

On average, 15 to 17 cases of whale entan-glement are reported every year. However,this number is increasing yearly as the pop-ulation increases, he says.

This year has seen eight cases already,with the whale season still only beginning.It is expected to peak in September.

The Network includes a variety of part-ners, including the Dolphin Protection Ac-tion Group, National Sea Rescue Institute(NSRI), Natal Sharks Board, researchersand whale watchers, Meyers says. It has 17centres along the South African coastline.

Every year, a new group is trained andmore equipment is manufactured. It costsabout R25 000 to set up a new team.

The public should report any sighting ofan entangled whale immediately, says Mey-er. There have been reports of people beingkilled by whales in the past, he explains,which iswhy the general public shouldnev-er attempt to free a whale themselves.

The Network will immediately dispatcha boat to locate the animal and monitor it.

The disentanglement team will then follow,using an appropriate knife to cut off what-ever rope or net the whale is caught in.

The Network has a 100% success rate indisentangling whales trapped on the seabottom. However, whales entangled butable to break free are difficult to follow, andan entangled whale can face a slow death.

Dangerous workDisentangling the whale can be very dan-

gerous, Meyer explains. While humpbackwhales tire and stop thrashing, southernright whales will kick their tails sidewaysand this can seriously injure a volunteer.

Safety is very important and the volun-teers never enter the water, Meyer says.

“It’s a very scary thing the first time youassist a whale. Many volunteers go out withtheir heart in their throats,” he says.

“We’re all geared towards getting thatpiece of rope off. At the same time, we’revery close to a large animal, and they oftencry in fear. Sometimes they don’t even real-ised that they’re free and we need to givethem a touch before they take off like a bul-let,” he says. “At that stage, although we’vebeen as quiet as possible thewhole time, theentire team will cheer.”V Report entangled whales to the Dolphin Action Pro­tection Group on 021 782 5845 or to the NSRI on021 434 4011.V For more information or to get involved, contactMike Meyer on 082 578 7617.

The number of incidents in which whales have been caught in ropes along the South Africancoast has increased. PHOTO: NSRI

‘Worthless’tablets raidedNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

Anew technology rolled out in ambulan-ces across the city is making emergen-

cy medics a target for crime.This as three sources in the industry,

who do not want to be identified as theyare not contractually permitted to speakto the media, claim that robberies and at-tacks have spiked over the last fewmonths, especially in areas such as Mitch-ell’s Plain, Manenberg, Hanover Park andKhayelitsha.

They believe the spike coincides withthe installation of tablet devices in ambu-lances, which link medics to the call cen-tre and provide directions to the emergen-cy.

Some medics who have been held uphave even been asked to hand over the“tablets”, sources say.

Useless outside ambulancesThe tablets, according to a source with

industry knowledge, have been installedin a way that makes them “impossible toremove” from the ambulances.

The tablets are also locked and will onlywork on the health department’s system,and are useless for any other user.

The installation of the devices, referredto as MDTs, cost about R300m, the sourcesays.

Medicshave reportedly raised their con-

cerns with management, but have re-ceived no reaction.

They are now calling for immediate ac-tion to be taken, to inform the communitythat the devices are not removable and arenot useable outside the ambulance.

Sources say the device, which is mount-ed above the dashboard, is clearly visibleat night.

The system also updates continuously,and can be heard beeping from outside theambulance.

They say in some areas, medics evenchoose to use ambulances in which the de-vices have not yet been installed or switchit off.

They say no education has taken placein communties to inform the general pub-lic of the function of the MDT devices.

Added pressureThe increase in attacks has left medics

fearful, a source confirms, with many al-ready expected to attend to patients in are-as they feel are unsafe or where gang vio-lence is prevalent.

“Wealreadyhave the pressure of havingto respond to as many calls as possible. It’snow becoming just a job and we are losingour passion,” he says.

The department of health refused to con-firm the existance of theMDTdevices, say-ing to do so could make ambulances moreof a target.

They declined to comment further.

Pool to be ready for summerASTRID FEBRUARIE

@FebAstrid

The contractor at the Retreat swimmingpool promises that he will be finishedin early September.

This is according to Belinda Walker, may-oral committee member for community ser-vices and special projects. “This is, however,dependent on the weather as the contractoris still affected by adverse weather condi-tions preventing him from working,” shesays. The pool will be opened for use shortlyafter the contractor has completed his work,Walker says.People’s Post previously reported that con-

struction at the Retreat swimming pool wasset to be completed by December last year(“In the swim”, 2 September 2014). The con-struction at the pool site started in 2013.

The former ward councillor, Jan Burger,said last year that although the constructionwas a lengthy process the community lookedforward to the new pool as a recreationalsite.

Walker says the contractor has takensteps to overcome his capacity constraints.“In this regard they have appointed a con-struction manager to oversee the manage-ment of the project and the completion of theworks. The City is monitoring the progressclosely and continually applying pressure

on the contractor to keep to their scheduleand complete the project,” Walker says.

She says that there has been no extra costto the City for the delay. “The City is in factcharging the contractor penalties for the latedelivery of the project, which we are entitledto do in terms of the construction contract,”she says.

Walker further says the main structureover the main pool is just about complete,with all of the major components havingbeen installed and the roof sheeting shouldtherefore be able to commence shortly.

The current tariffs of R6 for adults andR1.50 for children will remain until Julynext year.

42 arrestedin WynbergIn one week 42 people were arrested forvarious crimes, from theft to murder,in the Wynberg police cluster.

Captain Stephen Knapp, spokesper-son of the Muizenberg police station,says the arrests between 6 and 12 Julyinclude one person arrested for posses-sion of a dangerous weapon, three foroutstanding warrants, three for as-sault, one for intimidation, one forbreaking the Sea Fisheries Act andtwo for possession of a stolen car.

The other arrests include eight forpossession of stolen goods, two fortheft, three for domestic violence, twofor murder and five for robbery.

Ten people were also arrested forpossession of drugs.

Knapp says members of the Muizen-berg crime prevention unit passed awell-known drug dealer in ChurchStreet, Vrygrond one day when theynoted a suspicious man who, on seeingthe police, fled into a residence.

“The police officers gave chase andon apprehending the suspect foundhim to be in possession of 16 packetsof tik. The suspect, a 41-year-old resi-dent of Vrygrond, was arrested and de-tained at Muizenberg police station,”he says.

He appeared in the Muizenberg Mag-istrate’s Court on charges of posses-sion of drugs the next day.

Other arrests made in the cluster in-clude two for possession of drugs, onefor theft, one for robbery with a weap-on, one for housebreaking and theft,one for attempted theft out of a car, onefor possession of a dangerous weaponand one for being drunk in public.

The City of Cape Town will give a total ofR2m to community organisations thathelp residents.

Community organisations working inthe City’s areas of focus can apply for aportion of the funding now. The policy al-lows for funding to be made available toexternal organisations to help deliver ser-vices in the City’s area of responsibility,to enable community development.

Ready for actionThe City has an established grant-in-aid

policy, but this is the first time that the so-cial development and early childhood de-velopment directorate is disbursing thefunds.

“Our directorate is only a few years old

and so until now our focus has been on get-ting our internal policies, process and pro-grammes up and running,” said SuzetteLittle, mayoral committee member for so-cial development and early childhood de-velopment. “We are now in a better posi-tion to build partnerships with communi-ty organisations working in the socialdevelopment sector for the benefit of ourresidents.”

ApplicationsCommunity organisations working in

the areas of early childhood development,street people, substance abuse, youth de-velopment, vulnerable groupsandpovertyalleviation can apply for funding.

The minimum amount per project is

R100 000 and the applications need to in-clude a description of the project and abusiness plan.

Proper checks“We are bound by legislation to do prop-

er checks and balances and to ensure thatthe funds are spent wisely.

“I am excited about the prospect of em-powering organisations to help us changethe social fabric in our communitieswhere the need is greatest,” adds Little.

Application forms for grants are availa-ble at the various social development andearly childhood development district offi-ces.V For more information call Patty des Fountain on021 417 0141 or Fatima Davids on 021 417 4086.

VILLAGE HEIGHTS

City staff plant garden at ZerildaExtreme weather did not deter City offi-

cials from investing Mandela Day time inVillage Heights on Friday last week.

Various activities formed part of how Cityofficials celebrated Mandela Day while see-ing to some of the needs of Zerilda PrimarySchool in Village Heights

These activities included planting a varie-ty of indigenous plants and seeds, helpingwith environmental education activities forchildren facilitated by Zandvlei Nature Re-serve staff, painting a play park and clearinga school sports field of rocks and buildingdebris.

According to a statement City officialshave been working in the Seawinds area,specifically in Village Heights, for aroundthree years through the “Friends and neigh-bours: The other side of the fence” initiative.This initiative is run by the False Bay Na-ture Reserve and aims to integrate sur-rounding communities with the importantnatural assets in the reserve through envi-ronmental education and green jobs.

Johan vanderMerwe,mayoral committeemember for energy, environmental and spa-tial planning, says the event on Friday wasnot only held to honour the legacy of formerpresident Nelson Mandela.

“Importantly, we are not only celebrating

the legacy of this great man, we are also cele-brating the culture of volunteerism. I thankour officials and the other volunteers for notbeingdeterredby the extremelywetweatherand showing how we all have to work togeth-er to make progress possible,” Van der Mer-we says.

He adds the turnout at the event was en-couraging as staff and residents came out tosupport the days activities.

“Zerilda Primary School in Seawinds,near Lavender Hill, is attended by a numberof children from the Village Heights commu-nity.

“The Mandela Day activities, aimed at im-proving the facilities at the school, were ini-tiated by Village Heights parents. This sortof response from the community is very en-couraging as it highlights how, through pro-grammes such as the ‘Friends and neigh-bours’ initiative, a sense of pride and owner-ship is being cultivated,” he says.

The school plans to use the indigenousgarden a primary tool for the environmentaleducation programme.

It also provides a biodiversity link to acommunity nature garden currently underconstruction at Village Heights as part ofFalse Bay Nature Reserve’s “friends andneighbours” programme.

City staff and officials in the indigenous garden planted at Zerilda Primary School on Fridaylast week as part of their Mandela Day celebrations.

The provincial government wants to hon-our the legacy of former president NelsonMandela by developing a tourism routewhich traces his journey in the province.Alan Winde, provincial minister of eco-

nomic opportunities, says it is part of a se-ries of heritage tourism proposals.The proposal comes from South African

Tourism’s mobile app, which is based on amap of Madiba-inspired tourism attrac-tions.“The map was launched last year to en-

courage local and international tourists towalk in the footsteps of Madiba. We hopethese initiatives will offer an authentic ex-perience to visitors, allowing them to expe-rience a piece of the Western Cape’s richcultural heritage,” he says.The proposal is to develop signage for the

Madiba route, which will highlight cultur-ally significant sites in the province.“It is our goal to develop clear signage for

theMadiba route so tourists are able to eas-ily navigate to the different sites. At thisstage this is a proposal, and we will engagethe relevant stakeholders,” he says.The proposed Mandela journey will be

made up of Robben Island, Pollsmoor pris-on, Drakenstein correctional services, CityHall and Parliament.The proposal will be submitted for ap-

proval next month.“We can increase the economic contribu-

tion of the tourism sector by up to R28bnfrom R17bn.“It could add up to 100 000 formal jobs.

Currently, 204 000 residents are formallyemployed in the tourism sector.”

One of the oldest museums in the South-ern hemisphere is receiving amultimil-

lion rand upgrade.The Iziko South African Museum, which

was opened in 1879, has received fundingfrom the provincial department of arts andculture to create a bigger museum.The renovation and upgrade of the muse-

um will facilitate greater access to the col-lections and enable Iziko to work towardsbecoming a world-class museum, explainsmuseum CEO Rooksana Omar.

Six storeys“The courtyard project consists of the

construction of six storeyswithin the court-yard of the existing research building, adja-cent to the UCT campus. When completed,this buildingwill house the research collec-tions, offices and laboratories, as well asgive unique behind-the-scenes access to thepublic to view collections in storage, scien-tists and technical staff working on fossilsand other specimens,” she says.The project aims to increase the storage

space for the growing natural history andsocial history collections, improve visitoraccess to the research and collections withthe aim of increasing public awareness andprovide additional office and exhibitionspaces for Iziko museums.The renovations are expected to be com-

plete late next year.A report by the Central City Improve-

ment District estimates the project to beworth R180m.

Behind the scenesThe upgrade will allow Iziko to “lift the

veil” on the daily activities behind the pub-lic exhibitions and share the full extent ofits collections with visitors, Omar says.“Visitors can learn to better understand

the constantly evolving universe we live inandmarvel at the biological and cultural di-versity of our planet,” she says.Themuseumwill remain open during the

renovations, although some exhibitionsand areas may be closed.

One night of hitsOUISA STEYL

@LouNotes

A few of Cape Town’s divas will be onstage at the Joseph Stone Auditorium

for a special once-off performance on Satur-day 1 August.They’ll be performing in Kat Gilardi’sDi-

vas one night only, a cabaret show of dragqueens lip-synching.The annual charity concert is the brain-

child ofKat,whogrewup inMitchell’s Plainand now lives in Rondebosch East.“IwonMissGayWesternCape in 2010 and

as the titleholder you have to come up witha fundraising or awareness concept,” sheexplains. Considering there were alreadymany pageants on offer, Kat decided to in-stead do something she really enjoyed.

Creativity“Cabaret or lip-synching deserves the re-

spect of an art formas it was not viewed likethat.”Kat explains that there’s a lot of effort, en-

ergy and creativity that goes into preparinga song to perform.She decided to create a concert to show-

case Cape Town’s talent on one stage toraise funds and educate local communities.“We are not just boys or men in dresses

but men with talent and creativity withamazing personalities and good souls.”Funds raised at the concert will go to the

Miss Gay Western Cape competition. Theyrun soup kitchens and finalists of the com-petition visit old-age and children’s homes.“My teamand I atMissGayWesternCape

have no financial backing,” Kat points out,adding that they welcome any contribu-tions to help them with their charity work.Kat says the audience at this year’sDivas

one night only show can expect a bigger andbetter production thaneverbefore. “Theau-

dience will definitely be in for an amazingshow this year.”

Big namesMost of the performers involved are sea-

soned cabaret artists, but there will also besomenew talentwhomade it through an au-dition process.Some of the names on stage includeMani-

la von Tees, Vida Fantabisher, AnastaciaKhan, Angel Lalamore, Dayana Lima and3D (ThreeDivas), who’ll be performing hitsby divas like Patti Labelle, Whitney Hous-ton, Mariah Carey, Tina Turner, ArianaGrande and Madonna. Heart 104fm’s IrmaG will be the MC for the evening.Kat says the show has become a true com-

munity event with something for every-body on stage. She also invites the audienceto join the stars at the concert’s after-partyat West End in Rylands.V Tickets for Divas one night only on Saturday 1 Au­gust at 19:30 for 20:00 cost R100 each and are availa­ble from Computicket.V Anyone who would like to sponsor something forthe show or the goodie bags for the artists can emailKat at [email protected].

We hear of people taking the law into their own handsto deal with criminals, more often these days.Andwhile not only the hardened criminals, but also the

petty thieves are “punished for their crimes” by ordinarymembers of the community fed up by a “lack of policeaction”, very often vigilante justice becomes more thanjust a “simple hiding”.Recently, a suspectedmurderer paidwith his livewhen

residents of Kalkfontein decided to take the law into theirown hands.The reason? The community “distrusts” the police.

Theyalso complain about the lackof policing in their areaas is the case with other crime ridden areas across theCape.In a separate incident earlier thisweek, nine foreigners

and a South African were robbed at the bottom of Lion’sHead in Cape Town.When the victims chased the criminals after the rob-

bery, one called the SouthAfrican emergency number 112– without success.He phoned his mother, who tried phoning the 112 emer-

gency number as well as 10111 for over 20 minutes. Whenshe finally got through to the Cape Town Central policestation, the police officer on the phone did not knowwhere Lion’s Head is. The victims gave up after waitingon help to arrive for 35.Although the above incidents are not related , there is

an agreement: the police were conspicuous in their ab-sence.Such clumsy action (or rather a lack of any action) is

a blot on the name of our sergeants.The longer this poor service continues, the more the

community will continue to take the law into their ownhands – in itself a frightening and unacceptable idea!

Look out for morel mushroomI’m a Rondebosch-based mushroomforager and fungi researcher in need ofsome knowledge and/or advice fromFish Hoek residents who may havespotted an extremely rare mushroomgrowing in the valley.The morel mushroom is highly

sought-after for its excellent taste and isextremely rare to find in Cape Town.Research has led me to believe that

Fish Hoek was once a hotspot forforaging wild morels, but this is goingback over 50 years.

The morel is brown-yellow, shaped likea small conical brain and usually popsup in spring when the ground warmsup, at least in the northern hemisphereit does.They have been known to pop up after

fires and are believed to be mycorrhizal,meaning that they grow under certaintrees – in this case oak, ash, elm andapple orchards.I am curious as to whether they are

still around.Finding one, or a patch of them, would

be quite a discovery.Any information about these mush-

rooms and their last seen location wouldbe highly appreciated.I wish to find them and collect sam-

ples, as to preserve their spores forfuture propagation around the city.Eating them is undoubtedly a bonus!Please email me at [email protected] if

you know anything of this rare fungusthat grew in Fish Hoek.

Cry of desperationBy the time this article is published,another two coffins would have beencarried by bereaved family members toour local cemetery.Another two young lives cut off in the

prime of their youth.More tears, more heartache and more

uncertainty of what to expect next.As a community we are desperate –

desperate to see the end of this senselessbloodshed, desperate to be freed from thisevil that seems to overwhelm everythingin its wake.These are not words of despair, but

words of desperation. In spite of all ourefforts we humanly endeavour to do tomake our community a better place, theauthorities still ignore or choose tooverlook what is happening.As community leaders, organizations,

structures and churches we are doing ourlevel best but the reality is that we arenot the authorities. We are not the police,social development, court or the govern-ment.As long as basic services are not

delivered within the reach of the commu-nity, desperate times will prevail.I hope out of our desperation this time

round we will keep those who areresponsible to render these services,accountable and that if they don’t weshall collectively deal with the matter.

PAUL PHILLIPS,Parkwood

Gender violencea serious issueThe horrendous and brutal attacksagainst the courageous 14-year-oldGrabouw girl, and the 18-year-old matricpupil, Sanet de Lange begs the question,“When will civil society start winningthe battle of violence against women?”The ongoing scourge of the abuse ofwomen and children continues unabat-ed!Have we forgotten the brutal murder

of 2-year old baby Zoey Petersen at thehands of her drug-crazed father?The most vulnerable in our society

continues to be violated almost on a

daily basis, despite campaigns such asthe 16 Days of Activism for No Violenceagainst Women and Children, whichruns globally from 25 November (Inter-national Day for the Elimination ofViolence against Women) through toInternational Human Rights Day on 10December. I urge civil society to collec-tively tackle the issue of gender violenceseriously, and for government to securethe highest political commitment to endthe pandemic expeditiously.

Muggings, robberies must be reportedIt’s been safe and quiet for the last fewmonths at sunrise beach where localMuizenberg residents enjoy walkingtheir dogs or just taking a family stroll.But in the last week three violent

attacks have occurred.Two Sundays ago a man was robbed

at knife point and last Tuesday twoseparate incidents of ladies being robbedat gun point, at 10:00 by a couple of

youths.This is terrible. The sad thing is most

of these are never reported to the police,as people feel “What’s the point?” Thenthey complain that the police do noth-ing. These attacks need to be reported inorder for the law to do something aboutit!

PEOPLE'S POST | RETREATTuesday, 21 July 2015 SPORT 11

EARL HAUPT@EarlHaupt

The Western Province CricketClub Badgers (WPCC) hockeyteam has repeated last year’s

heroics and successfully defendedtheir Greenfields Elite Club Chal-lenge title in Durban at the week-end.

The tournament boasts the larg-est total prize money for a SouthAfrican hockey tournament.

WPCC pocketed R25 000 for its ef-forts in securing the tournament’stop honours, which is the highestprize money ever awarded inSouth African hockey history.

The Greenfields Elite Club Chal-lenge is the only non-tertiary na-tional hockey tournament on theSA circuit to feature the country’stop club hockey teams.

The tournament was establishedin 2013 by Riverside Sports andRiverside Hockey Club to show-case proficient top class hockey bypremier players in a festival typetournament.

This year, spectators were treat-ed to an even more exciting displayof intense hockey performancesfrom SA’s top players and clubs.

Participating teams included theBadgers, Kearsney Hockey Club(2nd), Riverside Hockey Club (3rd),Wanderers Hockey Club (4th) andOld Edwardians Hockey Club

(5th), who were also newcomers tothe tournament, and Malik Old Al-banians Hockey Club (6th).

Deserved championsThe Badgers would seal the deal

in the final match of the festival,beating Kearsney 3-0, with goalsfrom captain Andrew Cronje, Matt-hew McConkey and Ryan Crowe.

According to Jon Cook, the Badg-ers were fully deserved champi-ons: “Throughout this outstandingevent, the Badgers were compactin defence, inventive in midfieldand composed in front of goal.

“The Cape Town side were alsoindebted to their inspirationalgoalkeeper Mark Turner, whomade a number of breathtakingsaves at vital moments in histeam’s four matches.

“The impressive Kearsney outfitmade the Badgers work hard forthe victory, yet the goal scoring op-portunities they created didn’ttranslate into dividends.”

WPCC wins richest prize in SA hockey

“We are certain that participation in thistournament will be beneficial for the prep-aration of the first team for the season,”says Gomes.

“Wepoint out that for Sporting to partici-pate in a tournament in South Africa hasa special feeling because as early as 28 July1997 we have a strong bond – the date onwhich Nelson Mandela became a memberof merit of Sporting Clube de Portugal.”

The battle lines are drawn on Sundaywith the losers of Friday’s matches hopingto salvage pride in the third place play-off,before the final. It takes place at 13:00.

“We hope to grow this tournament in theyears to come and host other big-name soc-cer clubs in Cape Town.We ask for the sup-port of the Cape Town community to makethis event a hugely successful one.”

Tickets cost betweenR150 andR325,withthe City offering an “early bird” promo-tion:BuyaR200 ticket forFriday’smatches(on the middle tier of the north and southstands of the Cape Town stadium) and re-ceive a free ticket to Sunday’s final day.
