Our market on Saturday 13 February was made even more pleasand due to some much needed rain throughout the district a few days prior, settling the dust and freshening up the beautiful Violet Town Recreation Reserve where our market is held on the 2nd Saturday of every month.

Stallholders

Thank you as always to our regular stallholders for their continued commitment to our market and also to our casual stallholders who contribute to the freshness and variety of our market.

A reminder to our regular stall holders that we aim to re-introduce quarterly payment of site fees as well as a choice of payment methods. Details of this are still being finalised and stallholders will be notified of how this is to be implemented by newsletter in March 2010.

We urge any stallholders who may have concerns or issues they would like to discuss with the committee to contact the market either by phone on 0416 233 584 or at coordinator@market.violettown.org.au

We will always return your call or answer your email.

For anyone interested in the possibility of booking a site at our market please phone 0416 233 584 and leave a message stating your name, return phone number and the type of product you would like to sell, be it homemade or commercial, and our co-ordinator will return your call to discuss. You can also contact our co-ordinator via our email address coordinator@market.violettown.org.au

Volunteers

Thank you, as always, to our small band of volunteers. Without your ongoing assistance it would be impossible to host such a successful market.

The early morning commitement for siting stallholders and the time consuming job of collecting site fees can be quite daunting and we consider our stallholders fortunate to be assisted by such a willing and pleasant group of volunteers.

The jobs of placing signs, seating, umbrellas, rubbish bins and assisting stallholders with trestles and trolleys is imperative to the smooth running of the market. These jobs are undertaken prior to and after the market by two of our volunteers who do so in a jolly and pleasant manner.

Thank you also to our young assistant who with the assistance of her parents "finds" and sweeps the site numbers the evening prior to the market and also places the signs on the freeway.

Of course we are always looking for volunteers so if you are interested please phone our market phone on 0416 233 584 or email coordinator@market.violettown.org.au

We will continue to update our webpage with any news that may come to hand throughout the month. Until then, we look forward to you joining us at our next market on Saturday 13 March 2010 at the Violet Town Recreation Reserve, Tulip St, Violet Town.
