The Kennis Caravan Open Weekend was a huge success in terms of attendees (literally hundreds), who came from all parts of the province and even further afield. Kennis Caravans were pleasantly surprised to have received phone calls on the Saturday from Potchefstroom, Lichtenburg, and Heidelberg – from people wanting to know what time it was closing.
