The air was abuzz with excitement as all the guests entered Gallagher Estate in Midrand on Tuesday evening, 16 April. The decor was beautifully done, as people were seated at the multi-coloured high cocktail tables while others lounged about on the multi-coloured beanbags, which were scattered throughout the hall. There were also various fun spots in the hall where people could go and take photos or just enjoy themselves, such as mechanical bull, a pool corner, a ‘dress up in your favorite character’ corner and a bean-bag corner.
The Hirsch staff were easily spotted with their blue shirts as they mingled with the other guests and stood in line, at the various food stations. We were served delicious sausage rolls, miniture saucy prego rolls, fish and chips and various other vegetarian foods, and for dessert, we had strawberries, merigues covered with chocolate, chocolate fudge and delicious jam doughnuts. So it is safe to say that we were very well fed.
The MC for the evening was 5FM DJ, Gareth Cliff, who also turned into the DJ later on during the evening. The speeches kicked off with the Managing Director for Africa, Mr Bea, who thanked everyone for their continued support and described what the Samsung Smart Life programme is all about..
