Next weekend is Sedgefield’s yearly party.
So much to do and so little time. Jump, hop, skip, stroll, ride, fly, fling and laugh. Laugh loudly and outrageously as you you will do all this slowly. Very slow actually.
The third Slow Festival starts on the 5th of April and will s-l-o-w-l-y wind it’s leisurely way to the last day of the party on the 9th.
Yeah, right.
Three years ago Sedgefield became the first town in Africa to be admitted to the elite club of Cittaslow town all over the world. So one thinks the Sedgefielders, being the slow bunch they are, would go about a party slowly.
Yeah right.
Paragliding to gently float above the town and lakes.
The ultimate wacky boat race on Swartvlei.
Music trivia evening for all the has been hippies floating about.
Murder mystery dinner for Murder she Wrote fans.
Get dirty sprint race for the child in you.
Slow easter treasure hunt for everyone.
Float box derby for those still wanting to build a “seepkiskar”, but now one that floats. What fun…
Funky hair, slow art, fast feet, slow dining, sipping and slumbering.
I can’t wait for the town to be painted orange.
