COME RECORD YOUR PERSONAL HISTORY STORY OF OUR AREA

Community members with undocumented and interesting historic information about our area are encouraged to sign-up at your nearest local library to contribute to an Oral History Initiative project.

The Department of Cultural Affairs and Sport will schedule a video recording session with you to capture your stories on a DVD and YouTube that will enable the public to have access to the information, and will be very beneficial to preserve for future generations.

Come share your personal histories, traditions, culture, information and knowledge about your community and place. For example, how the Langeberg region came to existence, the history and development of the 5 towns, places, culture, heritage, the schools, clinics, churches, street names, nicknames, habits, lifestyles, sports, sports legends, authors, well known singers, actors/actress, farming, the farm life, plants, herbs & uses.

Any interesting information about what used to happen in the towns in the1950s, 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, 1990s etc.
