Thank you all for replying and making the time to come along and support our cubs. Markets days are a great way of advertising and getting your name out there. I am really looking forward to meeting you all and the day being a great success.

Hi,
I sent you the Money Order today so please let me know if you don't receive it by the end of the week. It should be really exciting. Can't wait to get the company name out there!!!
candlelover replied:
OMG
The local newspaper ran an article on the cubs as over the last school holidays they had their trailer and over $600 worth of cans stolen from the scout hall. As a result the cub leaders phone has been ringing off the hook with people donating cans amongst other things. We had a call from a Real Estate agent who has donated the services of an auctioneer for the day. All of the items that have been donated will be auctioned and there will be heaps more advertising through this as well.
Our Market Day is going to be fantastic with the stallholders we have and now the auction too it should be a great day for all.
I am really looking forward to meeting all of the lovelly ladies from here on the dayas well.
chocolateaddict replied:
Wow! That sucks that some bastards did that. ggrrr
But what great news with the people ringing up, gives you some hope that there is more good than evil out there.
I am looking forward to the market. :)

Hi Joan
I'd like to pay for my stall at the market day? Could you give me the payment details please? I know it's $20, but I don't have an address or bank account details to send it to.
Thanks

candlelover replied:
I have PM'd you with the info Bron. Sorry, thought I'd already sent it to you.
If anyone else involved has not received their PM regarding times, location and payment details please PM me and I will forward it ASAP. I will mark you as confirmed once I have received your payment.
The Local Real Estate agent is putting up the billboard in the next 2 weeks so the advertising is starting already. I'm really looking forward to it and am sure it's going to be a great day.
Cheers and see you all there

candlelover replied:
Not long now to what looks to be a very exciting day.
Just a reminder that payment day is fast aproaching (20/9). If you have not confirmed with payment by that date, it will be opened up to others and your place may not be guaranteed. Hopefully I will get to meet all the wonderful ladies on this site on the day. If you are experiencing difficulties in getting payment to me by this date PM me and we can work something out.
Cheers and see you all there

Hi, my name is Joanne and i have just started up a Fashion accessory party plan business called Lush Lily and i was wondering if i can get some details about this market and if possible get a stall and join the rest of you there??
candlelover replied:
Hi Joanne, you are more than welcome. I have PM'd you
candlelover replied:
Confirmations Updated.
Those who haven't confirmed can you please PM me to let me know if you are still attending as we have to finalize stallholders for advertising purposes.
It's not too late if anyone else is interested. Just PM me for details.
Thank you to the people who have confirmed and I look forward to meeting you all on the day.
Cheers and I hope everyone has had a great weekend.
candlelover replied:
Bumping this up as it is getting close now and there maybe some newbies to this site who are interested in attending.
A reminder to those who haven't confirmed to please do so by the end of this week or you will not be included in the advertising banners which are being printed early next week. It would be a shame to miss out on some free advertisement.
Looks like it's going to be a great day.
candlelover replied:
Updating as there have been some new additions.... Getting very close now, does anyone else want to be involved?????
chocolateaddict replied:
How is it all going Joan?
I haven't seen any mention in any of the local papers yet, not that I have been really looking! lol
Hopefully there is a good turnout.
candlelover replied:
Hi Michelle,
Everything is going well apart from a few saying that they were going to be involved only to let me know in the last week that they're not. It's a bit disappointing as we knocked back other similar companies cos we didn't want to have too many of the same sort of product. Not to worry tho as we have 12 confirmed and paid and another few who I have contacted to replace the ones who can't make who will confirm this week.
The billboards are supposed to be up this week. I will check it out on the way to Cubs tomorrow night and let you know what they look like. We are contacting the papers and local schools this week to organize advertising through them and I am e-mailing a radio station on the morning of the event who I know broadcast events Sat and Sun mornings. Posters will be going up next week as well.
The kids were on the front page of the Leader about 3 weeks ago as well but unfortunately they didn't advertise the Market Day. They said they would closer to the event. Shame it won't be on the front page again tho. It will most likely be in the Community Notices.
Hopefully with our advertising it will be a good turnout but with things like this you can never tell or predict what will happen.
I look forward to meeting all of the people from this site who are helping to support our kids and hopefully it will be a great day for all.....
Cheers and see you all there

Not long now. Can't wait to meet everyone.
See you all there.
candlelover replied:
Everything is well and truly on track for this event now. We are having a final meeting on Tuesday night to sort out the final details. I will PM, e-mail or phone all involved the following morning to let you know what time the hall will be opened for set-up and any other info that you need for the day. Fell free to contact me if you have any other questions that need to be answered before then.
The billboards went up last week, they are huge and will hopefully catch peoples attention.
I look forward to meeting everyone on the day and would like to take this opportunity to thank them for supporting our kids in their fundraising efforts.
candlelover replied:
Everything is organized for Saturday and it looks like it's going to be a great day. It's supposed to be 31 here on Saturday so it will be a warm one as well.
I have contacted everyone involved to let them know of times and what's happening on the day. I did get one or two answering machines so if anyone has any Q's they need answered please feel free to call me.
I look forward to meeting everyone on Saturday.
chocolateaddict replied:
Oh please let them be wrong about the weather!! I hate hot weather, and my chocolates are too kean on it either!
Apart from that, I am looking forward to it.
ExMember148 replied:
Oh I know its so annoying isn't it when you have cancellations at the last minute - maybe those people could try and get someone from their team to fill their spot (I am having this with Pink Ribbon on Sunday) but the consultant is helping me out so as not to let me down!!
Good luck, wish I could be there!! Have a super fantastic time!!
chocolateaddict replied:
Crap!! My stock didn't come in.
Oh well, will have to make do with what I have. It will still be a fun day just not as profitable for me! lol
Hope it doesn't reach 29C as they predicted.
