I’ll be one of the guest performers at the Bobs For Good Foundation Spring Ball!
About the Spring Ball:
It started with Bob and Ron’s idea to bring friends and colleagues together in Johannesburg to have a small charity ball and to tell their guests about the Bobs for Good dream: To provide shoes for every child in South Africa who has to endure physical and social torment because their families cannot afford this luxury. The event, of course, went down in history and helped spread the word of Bobs for Good. It also inspired guests to get out there and do more good for people less fortunate.
A year later, Bobs for Good has a dedicated team, a new office for 6 passionate staff, a successful fundraising campaign under its belt and importantly, there are nearly 7000 children walking proud in their new shoes, thanks to Bobs for Good.
With all the achievements and amazing people we’ve met on our journey, we’ve decided to celebrate in style by hosting our 2nd annual charity Spring Ball. This year, Bobs for Good is bringing the Ball home to Cape Town – Simon’s at Groot Constantia was the undoubted choice to host the glitzy occasion, set in the lush Constantia Wine Valley and surrounded by the mountain and vineyards, the perfect setting to welcome in Spring.
Bobs for Good has named this year’s edition ‘Welcome Back Blue Skies‘ to promote our new brand look and feel – a bright, fresh, sky blue set on a new cleaner, more playful logo and neutral background to represent the earth of Africa that children walk barefoot on. And of course, let’s celebrate the fact the suns shines a whole lot more in September!
The Bobs for Good Charity Spring Ball is one not to be missed. The team are working around the clock to ensure you are treated to a night of special guests, top live performances, relaxing on the rooftop balcony with delicious welcome drinks and meet amazing people who have helped make our achievements happen. Enjoy gorgeous food, complimentary wine all evening, win fabulous prizes in our small auction, delight in the detail of spectacular decor and let the good times flow. We won’t mention everything just now, we want to get a few surprises in!(Spoiler Alert: I’ll be performing magic for all the guests throughout the evening!)
The celebration kick starts at 6.30pm so come hang out with us on the rooftop balcony overlooking the mountains and vines, get your photo taken with our team and browse the small exhibition we’ve made to showcase our work so far.
So get your dancing shoes ready and your ‘touch of blue’ and book your ticket now! All funds raised from ticket sales, donations and the auction will be used to put shoes on the feet of children across South Africa in our national campaign (tour), Shoesholoza, next February 2011. The Shoesholoza campaign is a national equivalent of Walk This Way, a provincial campaign held in February this year, that put over 5000 pairs of brand new school shoes on children from all over the Western Cape.
Join the Bobs for Good team and help continue their rewarding work by celebrating the doing of good at their charity Spring Ball: Welcome Back Blue Skies. Grab your friends or bring a date or buy a table to entertain your clients. The more the merrier and its all for good.

The way we see it, I need to continue doing what is in my ‘flow’ (more about this in a minute) and use my talents and skills as a performer and speaker to produce exciting, fun and valuable presentations that will give our clients something that they simply can’t forget. (On that note,
Over the past few years, I’ve observed the difference between a successful event planner & someone who is clearly not a regular event organizer. What is becoming apparent is that many people are looking for the ”secret” online. They’re like the many people who approach me after a show, telling me that they’ve tried Googling for the methods to my magic, but could not find a suitable solution!
