Weekend Shenanigans!

Yesterday was the Gananoque Christmas Market. This was originally scheduled to be a 2 day event held in a local school.

As a result of a labour dispute the school was locked down and the craft show was left to find a new venue only days before the show date.

The Rotary club (the event hosts) had only one available solution and that was to do the show outside! Yes, outside on November 5th! Weather forecast was for 18 degrees Celsius so a pretty decent option.

The event ended up as a much smaller show as many vendors withdrew. Those of us that opted in showed up at the Town Park at 7am to set up in the dark.

Considering the last minute venue change, the turnout was great and our product was very well received. We almost sold out of everything!! It was an extremely successful day and we will most definitely be attending again next year.
