Mossel Bay

Raadsdame Marie Ferreira, Uitvoerende Burgemeester van Mosselbaai.
Vanwaar die naam Mosselbaai?
Die historikus, Comely, het in 1646 geskryf dat ene Paulus van
Caerden die naam "Mosselbaai" aan hierdie deel van die Suid-
Kaapkus gegee het. Dié Seevader en sy bemanning kon blykbaar,
behalwe wildsbokke en olifante, geen verversings langs die kus kry
behalwe mossels nie!
Min het die skrywer geweet dat Mosselbaai meer as 300 jaar later
bekend sou wees as een van die mees gesogte vakansieplekke
langs die Suid-Kaapse kus! Soos ‘n oorsese seiljagvaarder dit
gestel het: "I saw many beautiful places in this wonderful world.
God had however created a few places more special than others
and one of these is Mossel Bay. I call it the "Bay of Heaven." (Heinz
Schwab van die seiljag Inschallah). Nodeloos om te sê dat Heinz
onlangs in Mosselbaai afgetree het.

Dit is weer eens 'n wonderlike voorreg om al ons besoekers
namens die Raad van Mosselbaai in ons pragtige dorp te
verwelkom. Ons gereelde besoekers is vertroud met die gasvryheid
en vrygewige gees van ons inwoners en ek glo dat diegene
wat nou vir 'n eerste keer Mosselbaai gekies het om te kom ontlaai,
gou hierdie kwaliteite van ons inwoners sal ontdek!
I wish to thank our local residents for the support my Council
constantly received throughout the year. As Town Council we make
every attempt to offer you a safe environment and a 'home' to be
proud of. We can, however, only be as successful as you allow us
to be. David Brinkley said; "A successful man is one who can lay a
firm foundation with the bricks others have thrown at him". We are
indeed grateful to our different communities for providing us with
vuurwerke
Geen vuurwerke mag binne die munisipale
gebied van Mosselbaai afgevuur word nie.
Indien jy 'n openbare vuurwerkvertoning wil
aanbied, moet skriftelike toestemming by die
munisipaliteit gekry word. Aansoeke hiervoor
moet minstens 14 dae voor die datum waarop
jy vuurwerke wil afskiet, ingedien word.
word of welcome
Feesboodskap
The Executive Mayor of Mossel Bay,
Alder Lady Marie Ferreira the best quality bricks! My beste wense vergesel u vir 'n veilige en
gelukkige Feestyd. Ek ervaar hierdie tyd van die jaar as 'n periode
waar ons die geleentheid gebied word om familie, vriende en
kennisse van vooraf te waardeer en in dankbaarheid teenoor ons
Hemelse Vader te staan vir die Genade wat Hy so mildelik oor ons
uitstort - selfs al verdien ons dit nie altyd nie! Please take extra
good care of yourself during this Festive Season - do not drink and
drive - use the beaches vigilantly - act responsibly and always keep
those in mind who are less fortunate than yourself!
76
'n Geseënde Feestyd en 'n wonderlike
2012 word u toegewens!
Mossel Bay is a family friendly town.

EXPLORE
Mossel Bay on foot
The Foto-Expo, currently housed in the Carpenter
Shop at 89 Montagu Street is a must see.
This quaint little building was designed by the
famous architect, Herbert Baker, and is one of a
kind in Mossel Bay.
The Foto-Expo offers a selection of amazing photographs
vividly depicting days gone by, giving you a glimpse into
the daily life of the people who used to live in this unique
heritage town, dating as far back as the 1800's. This
picture shows what is known today as the Protea Hotel on
lower Church Street. The square in the photograph is
currently the parking area of the Dias Maritime Museum
complex. The ox wagons were used to cart the wool after
the harvest to be auctioned in the market hall before being
exported to Britain and Europe by ship. There are many
more interesting photographs on display at the Foto-Expo.
Visiting hours will be displayed in the window, or phone the
curator on 083 974 7577. Don't miss the opportunity to
hunt for more historical buildings by getting your detailed
copy of 'Explore historical Mossel Bay on foot', a brochure
with a detailed map and descriptions of all the heritage
highlights in Mossel Bay. Copies may be obtained from the
Tourism Office (corner of Market and Church streets) or at
the Foto-Expo (89 Montagu Street).

Rauch | Gertenbach Photo Gallery
Every picture tells a story... a moment captured that will always be remembered.
April 2009 saw the launch of the Rauch/Gertenbach Photo Gallery where
local photographers show off their best shots. Once a month the gallery is
updated with new photos, so when you visit the gallery be sure to ask for
the archive files from which the rest of the year's photos can be viewed. The
gallery is situated in the foyer of the
Rauch/Gertenbach Attorney's office building,
opposite the Protea Hotel. Entrance is free and
the photos can be viewed during normal
business hours.
All photos are for sale at any size and would be
a wonderful Christmas present. Everybody is
welcome to view this display of Mossel Bay
talent. For more information, contact Christelle
at 044 691 2515.

The main stage of the event, which takes place
from Sunday, 18 to Friday, 23 December, will
again be at the Garden Route Casino - a much
preferred entertainment destination in the Southern
Cape. The casino, and organisers, Frontline
Productions, are putting up a huge marquee
where Bravo! shows will be staged throughout
the week. Specialist technicians have been
contracted to deliver a world class venue, sound
and lighting to ensure the ultimate experience.
This will be the seventh year that Bravo! is
staged, making it the longest-running large-scale
music and entertainment event in the Southern
Cape. The Bravo! concept is unique. In contrast
to traditional music festivals which typically
feature a schedule of artists and bands performing
individually, Bravo! features a collaboration of
artists in dynamic, themed concerts to deliver
top, non-stop entertainment. Aligned with the
main event, there is also an array of daytime
fringe activities and events taking place at the
new Bravo! Lounge Show-Bar in the casino, and
various venues around Mossel Bay. Visitors can
also look forward to a variety of food and wine
stalls selling the best in local taste. In 2010,
thousands of people attended Bravo! at the
Garden Route Casino. This year will be no
different, with a record attendance anticipated!
According to Robin Seabrook, General
Manager: Garden Route Casino, the
producers secured some of South
Africa's top performers, from singers
and musicians to comedians, ensuring
that there is something for
everyone.
