On the 15th of May the JAG Sports & Education Foundation hosted their Year in Review. The function was a great success all around, but especially with regards to the items that were auctioned off for the songo.info bmx project. Marco Carvalho’s painting, which he donated to the project, was auctioned off for R10 000.00 to Karl Westvig.

The Specialized Rockhopper Mountain Bike and the Yellow Cape Epic Leader Jersey, signed by Christoph Sauser was auctioned off to Gerard Holden for R20 000.00.

The JAG Foundation is now officially one year old! They have done tremendous work in the last year and only seem to be reaching more and more kids through their sporting and education programs.

As far as construction goes, we are in the final throws of getting municipal permissions. Songo is now working full time and putting his energy into getting the permission to use the land.
