Samantha speaking to the meeting
May Market
A good day all round. The weather was kind and a good crowd attended so most stall holders were happy.
Because we are having problems getting enough workers for the market roster we had a trial run with helpers from Walliston P&C with two people in the morning and again at pack-up time. John was in charge and reported that it all went well. The P&C are talking to their members to see if this can be a permanent arrangement for morning and afternoon or perhaps just mornings.
