Upington notes on venues, equipment & supplies
Lodges and guest houses along the river and on farms at Kanoneiland and Kakamas host most sessions, with small conference rooms in town. Air conditioning is essential in summer, and ask about generators. Larger AV and PA setups may need to be brought from Kimberley or further, so confirm equipment early. Bring workshop supplies and printed material with you or order well ahead.
Facilitation work in Upington
Upington is the service town for the Green Kalahari. Irrigated vineyards, table grapes and dried fruit farms line the Orange River, and several large solar power plants in the district have brought construction, operations and community development work. Typical bookings are farm worker and supervisor training, community trust and stakeholder meetings for the solar projects, municipal strategy sessions and school staff development. Venues are guest houses and lodges along the river, with conference rooms in town and on farms at Kanoneiland and Kakamas. Distances are long: many facilitators fly into the airport from Johannesburg or Cape Town. Summer heat regularly exceeds what outdoor activities can handle, so plan early mornings.
The requests we see from Upington usually come from:
- NPOs, churches and community groups: a PA for an AGM, church event or community meeting
- Schools, colleges and universities: sound for prize-givings, sports days and district conferences
- Mines, plants, factories and farms: sound for safety days and shift meetings at a mine or plant
