The Enlighten Open Day, held on 25 March 2010, turned out to be a huge success. The afternoon kicked off with a very special ceremony where Henri Kuiper, the founder of EET, was honoured as the Life President of EET. Angela Heslop, Vice-Chairperson of EET, paid tribute to Henri who has, together with a committed team, established a credible and effective educational NGO in Hermanus. During the latter part of the afternoon, many visitors could enjoy what Enlighten has to offer. All venues were prepared and the EET facilitators were “on duty” to talk to the visitors. The afternoon was enjoyed and appreciated by all.
