Easter Market Preparations

To All Our Quiet Achievers aka Volunteers

Our Paluma Community Easter Market is on Sunday March 31st from 9am to 1pm. There are a range of tasks that need some ‘quiet achievers’ to help with to ensure a successful market. You will be working alongside some of our more well known ‘quiet achievers’ (ok, maybe they’re not always quiet, but there’s the fun in it) who will be more than happy to guide you in whatever’s required… in case you’re new and want to help. All are welcome to come and be part of this community event and give a hand, even if it’s for a 1/2 hour (which would be brilliant!).

If you are interested in doing some volunteering, below are a list of jobs that need support. If there is a name beside them, that means they are managing that task and absolutely still need some help.

Easter Market Job List

This list will be on a signup sheet displayed at the hall on Saturday evening at the St Paddy’s day gathering. It will also be available for signup on Saturday 23rd at the hall at 10am or see/email Wilfred or Juanita and let them know what you can do to help.

  1. Hey Juanita/Jamie,
    As I have put my hand up to buy all that s needed for the bbq, I’m happy to slice onions & set up bbq & start cooking, if our Chef isn’t available. Colin will help with this set up before he mans the coffee stall. It would be great to see some new faces as our movers & shakers, managing the orders & selling the goods.

  2. I am happy to do the coleslaw for 200 snags. It will though be my last coleslaw and hopefully someone else can take on the chore.
