August Market

A truly winter market- cold and windy but at least the rain stayed away. We had the "Collectors" from the ABC and it will go to air Friday night television show at 8.00pm with Gordon Brown and Professor Adrian Franklin .They hunted in second hand and Antique shops for the unusual. They spent some of their dollars,and cheered the brave stall holders who stood in the cold and wind.

Next market 19Th September we have a young lady from Bendigo singing. kim Rictchie is a blind and her dog travels with her, Kim has a pleasant voice that has shades of Patsy Cline.
Our interstate stalls are increasing with each market. They come from Melbourne, Adelaide, Swan Hill, Broken Hill, Loxton, Berrie. the Merbein Street Market has increased to be the largest in Sunraysia, all monies from the market stay in the community by funding the Merbein Visitor Information and Community Resource Centre that is run intirely by volunteers
So to next update, remember He who rows the boat is to busy to rock it.
