We were so fortunate that the rain over the last couple of weeks held off for our November market. It was grey and overcast and a little cool but the warmth of all the visitors made us all happy that we were able to hold the event. The stallholders were delighted with their sales and their customers left with gorgeous cushions, hand painted ceramics, awesome eco-dyed scarves, glamorous jewellery, charming baby clothes, tomato plants and seedlings, organic fruit and vegetables, scented soaps and diffusers, Japanese and Turkish crafts, delectable cakes and jams to name but a few. Also attending were the Merimbula Water Dragons selling their delicious Christmas Puddings to raise funds and Merimbula Marine Rescue selling raffle tickets with some amazing prizes. All this, whilst being entertained by our talented Sapphire Coast Jazz Band and local radio station, 2SEA FM. Our next market in December will have even more fabulous products on offer, so make a date in your diaries now so you don't miss out.
We had a visit by the Merimbula RFS, who came to inform us how to be 'bush fire ready' even though we have had masses of rain, we mustn't become complacent. The children went away happy with colouring books and fire helmets.
Our Rotary volunteers thank you all for being so co-operative in checking-in via our QR codes and showing your fully vaccinated certificates.
