Big Fish Caravan and Camping

Dearest Camping family & fishing friends

As most of you are already aware, our Gamtoos gem is currently overflowed by tons of water!

We truly did not expect this devastation. Not knowing the outcome and not knowing the full extend of the amount of water on its way, we still clung to the hope in our hearts that the level of the raging waters would not cause the devastating damage we had to witness in our caravan park, farming communities and surrounding area since the call for evacuation came.

Our closing time for the winter season came much quicker than we planned, and unfortunately we will be closed untill further notice.

Thanks for all the tremendous support already shown in so many different ways through phone calls, messages and prayers.

We will keep on hoping, trusting and praying for something even more beautiful to rise out of these raging waters (aka roaring river!)

Met groot hartseer wat ons afskeid neem van een van ons geliefde personeel. Nee wag, Deon was nie net 'n uitstekende park bestuurder nie, hy was family... soos ou furniture net beter!

Here,

Stort U seën oor Deon se geliefdes uit, vergroot hulle grondgebied, neem hulle onder U beskerming en weerhou onheil van hulle, sodat geen smart hulle tref nie.’
- 1 Kronieke 4:10

Deon ~ getrou, eerbaar, lojaal en altyd reg met daad en raad. ‘n Slim pel, vinniger as 'n calculator, ‘n vriend wat leer en help. Soms ‘n streng oupa, kwaaier karavaanpark oompie, maar nooit sodat mens rede nie kan verstaan. ‘n Storieverteller, grapmaker en pleinweg ‘n lekker mens!

Jy gaan gemis wees ou Deon! 'n Beter pel kon mens nie voor vra nie.

Rus sag.
