A lovely evening was held for the FOSTER Jol last night at the Resort, the annual fundraiser for this nature conservation group that is custodian of the pristine Cape St Francis Reserves with their natural flora and wildlife.

The theme was Mexican and and so sombreros in various hues and brightly coloured outfits with flowers made the evening fun and festive , plus there were some amusing ones which added to the jovial atmosphere and vibe.


The event was well organised by the charming and helpful Nita Claasen. Live music organised by Chris Costanza et al., and Sasha, the latter who dazzled in a striking red, kept plenty of feet hopping on the the dance floor. The best was the the floor show given by one little girl, seen also dancing with Harry.

Despite the cold it was a fun evening and the hosts, the Cape St Francis Resort, provided plentiful plates of meat and vege curries for sit down meals. Most attendees gathered inside in front of the band to escape the chill and there was plenty of dancing which kept us warm.

Hats off to the Cowlings, Richard and Shirley, and the late Chris Cowling, and all the other committee members for being involved for so many years in preserving and protecting the beautiful area around the Cape St Francis. Richard gave a short talk about FOSTER and encouraged people to join.
