focusing on adventure sports and<br />
the organisation and promotion<br />
of events, including festivals.<br />
The opening of the<br />

to the <strong>Northern</strong> <strong>Cape</strong> events and<br />
conferences industry. It is located<br />
near the Big Hole in the centre<br />
of Kimberley. The Convention<br />
Centre makes it much easier to sell<br />
