Crookwell Rotary Club has received interest in stalls for the annual event from towns in the surrounding regions, and as far afield as Sydney and the South Coast.

The market day is a major fundraiser for the club who contribute the money raised to local community projects and Rotary charities, said Ken Leech, Rotary president. 

"A strong community attendance will ensure the Rotary Club can continue its significant support,” Mr Leech added. In 2017, Rotary contributed over $12,000 in grants for the community. 

The gates will open at 6:30 am on Sunday, October 21, held at the Crookwell Showgrounds. 

There's some unusual stuff that turns up, said Sean Proudman who is coordinating the stalls. 

Many stallholders have already purchased their site which gives us great confidence, he said. 

People can expect to find old and new; car parts, automobilia, tools, antiques, collectables, woodwork, ironwork, plants/shrubs, books, clothing, footwear, craft, and bric-a-brac.

"Come along and pick up some bargains... and be eligible to win some of the $400 worth of lucky entrance or stall prizes," he added.

Car enthusiasts will be in their element at the popular Show and Shine competition where vehicles will compete for several trophies.

The Ford GT Club of Canberra will also display their vehicles after they cruise to Crookwell from Dickson, ACT in the 2018 Canberra to Crookwell Charity Cruise.

Rotary is a not for profit service club and all the profits from the event go to local community projects and Rotary charities.
