MORE than a thousand people turned out on Sunday to enjoy Willaura Health Care’s annual market.
The event returned to its parkland site near the hospital, where over seventy stallholders and exhibitors were able to showcase their wares.
It was a day out for everyone, with the jumping castle, slushie bike and facepainting keeping the children amused, while the adults were able to browse the stalls, tuck into a wide variety of food, and listen to the ever-popular musical duo, SOFT.
The raffle attracted lots of hopefuls and was won by Phil Goudie, with Val Platen taking home the second prize.
Over ten thousand dollars was raised on the day, and these funds will go directly to Willaura Health Care to help enhance the lives of the residents and patients there.
Market coordinator, Jan Laidlaw, thanked all those who supported the event, including the many volunteers who helped out in the lead up to the day, and during the market itself.
“It was terrific to see so many people from across the region out enjoying themselves and supporting our Health Care Service. We were pleased to be able to provide something for everyone at our true country market amongst the gum trees.”
