Rain doesn’t scare Kovsie Rag
2012-01-31
There were rain, but also sunshine, when students of our university took to the streets of Bloemfontein on colourful floats, during the annual Rag main procession on Saturday 28 January 2012.
A festive atmosphere prevailed when the procession moved along Nelson Mandela Drive, with young and old gathering in the streets to watch the floats.
Earlier in the day, two processions departed for Heidedal and Mangaung, so that residents of these neighbourhoods could also share in the activities. Food parcels were distributed in the two neighbourhoods along the way.
The main procession departed from the Main Campus at 18:00, from where it moved to the Old Greys Sports Grounds for the Rag concert. Die Heuwels Fantasties and DJ Black Coffee entertained the crowd until late. The floats of Armentum, Soetdoring, Wag-'n-Bietjie and Legatum residences were named as winners.
