Revving up community spirit in Philipstown with the annual Draadkar Grand Prix

The Draadkar Grand Prix is an annual event held in the Northern Cape town of Philipstown, designed to spotlight the youth in the area. This exciting race, a highlight of the summer calendar in the heart of the Bo-Karoo, features children of all ages competing in their homemade wire cars. The visionary behind the Draadkar Grand Prix, Kay Fourie, is a local artist who initiated the event 15 years ago to provide a meaningful activity for children in the community. Fourie shared with Biznews that many children in the area come from underprivileged backgrounds, and there is a lack of entertainment options, coupled with numerous temptations. To address this, she is currently developing a plan to expand beyond the annual event, which takes place on 13 September this year by offering workshops and art lessons throughout the year.
