URGENT: updates for stall holders!

The rain is meant to ease around 10am and be fine all afternoon. The Market WILL be on and the volunteers will be there from 8am to pack you in. However, we are extending stall holder set up from 8am to 11am. So that you can wait off the heavy rain if your like. Bring your umbrella!
Hope to see you all there!
Ill be there ALL day so come say hi! (Grey and green beany with a pom pom!)
Cheers,

We don't have time to reply to the huge number of emails, calls and texts we are receiving today so please ensure you read the stall holder page top to bottom! :) - Everything you need to know about the market is on the website.
Market is on Rain, Hail or Shine! - Same venue due to market size, A & P Show Grounds
Weather tomorrow is meant to rain lightly till 8am and then clear! Fingers Crossed!
Because of the risk of rain, feel free to bring pop up tents, umbrellas or small gazebos :)

COme and set up shop!
The idea behind the KidsMarket is that it is an educational experience for kids to learn how to trade/deal with the public; handle money; set up shop; look after their own business; make their own decisions.
You can sell old clothes, toys, home baking and arts and crafts that you have made!
Please note, no electrical equipment or cooking is allowed on site.
Please bring your own table no longer then 1.2 meters long.
As well as this, it also raises money for children’s charities around Canterbury.
This year, the three charities that the profits (from ticket sales) will go to are, Cholmondeley Children's Centre, Home & Family and Big Brothers and Big Sisters.
The market is run by volunteers and none of the money raised is used for anything other then market set up costs (venue, insurance etc) and donating to the selected charities.
Come down and set up shop! Remember to wrap up warm and be ready to sell to customers!
