Macksville Ex-Services Club market days return

Pastel Artist Jen Dayman was pleased to display and discuss her wares.

ON Saturday morning 4 May, though it was gloomy and wet outside, the Macksville Ex-Services Club’s main auditorium was a warm and cosy venue for the return of the Macksville Creative Community Markets.

Along with more than 30 independent stalls, operating from 10am to 2pm, the Nambucca Macksville Evening VIEW club was the chosen charity for the day’s event, and Mother’s Day raffles were very popular.

Margaret from Lions won first prize in the Nambucca Macksville Evening VIEW club Mother’s Day raffle.

Belinda won second prize and Margaret B won third prize.

Leanne D won the stallholder donations raffle.

“A massive thank you to our community who came to support our market day and special thanks to Debbie Mathews for all her time in coordinating the stall holders, who did an amazing job,” Club representatives commented.

“Thank you to all our stall holders who spend many hours leading up to Saturday creating their stall items.”

The exhaustive list of creative wares, all highly suitable for Mother’s Day gift giving, included: natural botanical body products, jams and preserves, pet portraiture, fudge, unique homewares, legendary local honey, fresh garden produce, vividly designed silk scarves, enticing home baked goods, jewellery and woodwork items skilfully constructed by members of the Macksville Men’s Shed.

The Macksville Ex-Services Club plans to hold the ‘weather friendly’ Macksville Creative Community Markets every second month, with the next one scheduled for July 2024 (date yet to be advised).
