It's been a busy few weeks getting my first market stall up and running and so I've been a bit delayed getting in getting the next challenge link up however I'm working on a new system where you can upload your art work to continuedly stay tuned
So my firsts markets was completed Sunday 9th Feb in Ararat and I've decided I'll be attending them every month I loved the feel and the community and also the drive was not too bad I am getting more confident on that road.
It was Windy on the Saturday we arrived and to fill in time Saturday afternoon we drove around and found a show and shine event that was due to start at 4.30pm but I didn't feel like it was already a long day for me I just was hanging for dinner at the RSL which we did I had a chicken parma and my support worker had a Vegie Parma
I also experienced during the first post was played at 6pm the whole club stopped serving and we had to stand on the spot and listen to it until they turned toe lights on again and continue eating I've not stood for the post like that before at first we were a little confused to why it was happening but then found out they do it every day at 6pm in respect of the fallen - I like that idea
I have been busy printing some signs for the stall and made a donation box for the epilepsy foundation that I can keep using I raised $21.50 on the day in the box I rounded it to $25 and added it to the fundraising page
For lunch during Sunday I had 2 sausages from their sausage sizzle going I find it hard to pass up a good sizzle these days
A few people in the community took my business card it was great to hand them out too and chat to many of the on lookers
Oh I have been working on gaining sponsorships for STEPilepsy and picked up one of the major prizes from our local Swimming pool Ballarat Aquatic Centre
If you wish to sponsor my STEpilepsy cause you can make a donation and or email me anytime to offer a prize at the end of year
Did I sell any mugs yes I did I sold two mugs but it's all in fun and a learning experience always here are the Dates for my next lot of Markets for Ararat
