Not only were we invited to paddle, (six lucky Shine participants) but we were also the chosen recipient of proceeds being raised through the SMS campaign open from 16 November to 16 December 2011. SMS SHINE to 38270 to donate R10 and change a child's life!
Race day fell on a beautiful summer morning at the Waterfront. Shine had such a fun and laughter-filled time under the rolling tablecloth of Table Mountain. Being able to raise awareness and money whilst having a good time with such enthusiastic people has to be the ultimate.
Thank you to both Cambridge and Oxford for their sense of adventure and generosity of spirit, and to everyone who came to support us on the day. We had a wonderful time.
