Nedbank Spring Festival offers family fun

Herma Prinsloo
This year’s Nedbank Spring Festival, which will be held on Saturday, offers participants a chance to claim a lucky draw valued at N$70 000 in addition to a pristine environment for a good day out.
This will be the fourth year that Nedbank teams up with Cycletec to bring the 18th Spring Festival.
This fun-filled event brings family, friends and pets together to welcome spring with fun outdoor activities.
The Nedbank Spring Festival last year saw over 560 registered participants taking part in various activities ranging from off-road duathlon, to a trail run, mountain-bike rides and a family dog walk at Windhoek’s Avis Dam.
This year’s event will again be hosted at the Avis Dam.
The event starts at 08:00 and visitors can expect to be entertained throughout the day with fitness competitions, a mechanical rodeo bull and various activities for the children.
Keeping in line with this year’s theme to promote a healthy lifestyle, Food Lovers Market will provide participants with free fruit.
In addition, as has been the practice for the past three years, Cycletec and their suppliers once again placed the entire prize purse towards the lucky draw, which every registered participant qualifies for. The value of the lucky draw is N$70 000.
Nedbank executive Gernot de Klerk said the event remains a special highlight on the bank’s annual calendar.
“As we continue to promote a healthy and active lifestyle, this year in particular we would like to especially bring attention to our Nedbank Spring Health Basket Corporate Challenge, in support of our elderly,” he said
The Mammadù Children’s Shelter will also be at the event selling crafts made by the mothers of some of the children who receive support from the Mammadù Children Shelter situated in Otjomuise.
Interested participants can visit the Cycletec website (www.cycletec.com.na) to enter for the Spring Festival.
The closing date for entries is Wednesday. Numbers can be collected at Cycletec on Thursday and Friday from 12:00 to 17:30.
