Although making miniatures comes with a lots of challenges, for many members whether they create miniatures as a hobby or a career, “it is a wonderful escape from all the challenges faced by the world today – it is a way to nurture that often-neglected ‘inner child’,” said one of the members.
Every year the financial proceeds obtained through fees, collections and raffles go towards a worthy cause.
This year proceeds will go to Reach for Recovery. The organisation has been active in SA since 1967. They have supported breast cancer patients for almost 60 years.
Their aim is to provide practical and emotional support to breast cancer patients and their families throughout South Africa.
One of the organisers, Priscilla Kleyntjies, thanked everyone who came through on Saturday to support the fair.
“We would also like to thank all our vendors that are non-club members. Everyone made the day special.
Kleyntjies also thanked their sponsors for their generosity.
“To the committee members and Dame Club members, we are grateful for the unwavering commitment and hard work.”
