I am a retired male and love going camping with my mentally handicapped daughter who enjoys just being in the bush with nature.

I am a camper because it is tbe best way getting out of a city overcrowding, allowing me be be on your own. All rules related to Covid-29 is easy to apply by campers and still enjoy nature.

1) work is essential to the staff of these small businesses to be able to feed their children etc.
2) It is a very safe environment for all as social distancing has always been applied due to the spaces between people.
3) Most businesses are now open where protocols are in place.
4) Gatherings of 50 are already in place

I feel that by now everybody should know about social distancing, hygiene and masks. If people can go into super markets and malls, why can't people go camping. Social distancing is easy in wide open spaces like resorts and caravan parks.

Andre Vermaak (Delmas, 2020-06-29)

Camping, especially out of season, are almost automatically practied with social distancing. There is no greater risk than working or going to a shop. This lockdown is a killer in itself

#2540

it is time to go camping. If people can go to casinos, restaurants, shopping malls etc then why can't they go camping. We are always more than 20m apart from the next camper. Social distancing is not an issue for campers.

Robert Galvin (cape town, 2020-06-29)

#2545

We are permanent campers with no where to go we need to find a caravaan park to stay for at least 4 months

Zenobia Dutton (Pretoria, 2020-06-29)

#2546

It is totally absurd to stop people from camping in the outdoors where social distancing comes naturally and fresh air and sunshine is a huge health benefit.
It will also open the economy for resort owners and all the staff members that are employed there.

Willie Tenner (EDENVALE, 2020-06-29)
