Saturday 19 October 2024 - 2pm till 8pm Spring Magic Market News – Edition #10

5 WEEKS TIL MARKET DAY!

SCHOOL HOLIDAY LETTERBOX DROP - HELP US PROMOTE THE MARKET!

Grab the kids and your walking shoes these school holidays and help us promote the market. We need your help to deliver A5 letterbox flyers to homes local to the school. Stacks of flyers + an area map are available Tuesday 17 September from the school office before the end of term.

VOLUNTEER ROSTER IS LIVE

Grab your friends and sign up to do a shift on a stall together. There are many areas that need volunteers so jump on fast so you don’t miss out on your preference. If you can’t volunteer on market day maybe you can help with the market set up including decorating, pricing etc or market pack down?

SIGN UP HERE → https://volunteersignup.org/8HLWT

If you would like to assist with the organisation of leading a stall please email the market team market@brunswicknwps.vic.edu.au. There are still a few spots available.
