Be there! Days to go till #Streetbraai
The Herald is counting the days until Jacaranda FM’s Scenic Drive first ever #Streetbraai here in Randfontein.
The public is reminded about the first-ever Randfontein-based Jacaranda FM Scenic Drive #Streetbraai, which is to take place on Friday, 6 April.
The venue is the corner of Mimosa Avenue and Lourie Road, from 4pm to 8.30pm, and Rian van Heerden and the team will be broadcasting live from the location.
The event was originally scheduled for 23 March, but the organisers had to reschedule for Friday, 6 April, due to the wet weather.
Rian, a former Randfonteiner, wishes to remind his fellow ‘townsmen’ about the event, saying, “We hope to see each and every one of you on 6 April, when we’ll be there in full force – braai-ing up a storm, having a proper ‘kuier’ and playing you more music you love!”
Jacaranda FM said in a statement that the Straatbraai initiative was started in February this year.
“The idea was to provide an opportunity for people to get together, to get to know their neighbours again, and create a sense of common cause and unity. It’s something that was a part of South Africa’s culture for many years, but, for some reason, we haven’t been doing it for a while. Now we’re having street braais again, coming together as South Africans – irrespective of background or heritage. It’s an evening of braai-ing together, having a ‘lekker kuier’ together, and doing more of the things you love, with the people you love.”
