EL Shark Fundraiser

Friday 5 August 2011 If you are in the East London region this weekend, then pay attention. As you probably know, Denver Struwig was attacked by a shark while surfing with his friends at Chintsa Beach on 22 July 2011. See report. Fortunately he lived to tell the tale, and in true Slummies style, Denver and his mates will now be throwing a fundraiser party to cover medical bills and also create a fund to assist shark attack victims.
