Dear Mart, Steve and JP

As you know, you built up the pageant with me form humble beginnings to what it is now.

I am indebted to all of you.

I don’t think I could do this without you.

Thank you for coming every year.

I have received such good feedback!

I am still absolutely passionate about the Miss Namibia, with all your support.

Please don’t let me down. I am the first to retire!!!

Lots of love to you all.

Conny

Dear Martin

This year I had the privilege of sitting back and viewing the Elizabeth Galloway graduate collections from the front row (rare for me as I’m usually part of the technical team).
This afforded me the opportunity to have the full audience experience. And I must say I was absolutely blown away. It was a visual and aural feast!

Each piece of music truly enhanced the narrative of the story that was unfolding on the ramp, elevating each collection to an artistic statement where the whole was definitely more than the sum of the parts!

Elizabeth and I would like to thank you and Dave sincerely for undertaking to interpret the requirements of each of our young designers and advising on and selecting the right music for each collection.

We look forward to work with you and SMD Technical again in 2012!

Warm regards,

Gideon Malherbe – Managing Director

The Host was the Fantastic Brandon October.

The winner was 24 old Luzaan van Wyk from Windhoek.

SMD technical supplied the music direction under Martin Myers with Steve Olivier doing the overall technical production and our good friend JP Willson doing the lighting design and operation.

I have left the task of extending all at FEDISA’s thanks for your wonderful inputs at the 2010 FEDISA Graduate Collection Show at Grand West last week until this moment, so that we could have images available of the spectacular event. The feedback has been nothing but stellar and we are therefore grateful for your participation in this proud achievement.

Several albums of the show have already been uploaded to the FEDISA FaceBook page, which can be accessed directly from the FEDISA website at http://www.fedisa.co.za . Galleries of images will also be uploaded to the website by the weekend.

Thank you again for your valued contributions and we look forward to working with you again next year on an even bigger and better FEDISA Graduate Collection Show 2011.

Best regards
