Many favourite South African dishes and beverages will be available to purchase on the day including boboetie, lamb on the spit, boerewors rolls, vetkoek and mince, koeksisters and milk tart, to name a few. There will also be a craft market offering a range of items from jewellery to golf merchandise as well as a number of raffle draws throughout the day boasting some fantastic prizes. The swimming pool will also be open to all. The event runs from 10.30am-6pm and costs BD2 per person to enter. Unlimited access to the kids’ activities costs BD5 per child.

The US ambassador William Roebuck and Mrs Roebuck will open their garden as the venue for the celebratory event, for all to enjoy a fun evening with delicious American-themed barbeque and dancing to the talented band Jazz in Progress.
