Spring Festival 2014

We had a great day at the Spring Festival.
It was held on 19-Oct, Sunday, between 10am – 4pm, at the Whitehorse Civic Centre, Nunawading.
Over 20,000 people attended the festival, the biggest crowd ever, and the Council had lots of positive feedback coming in from the general public.

Our stall also broke the record with the fund raised.
This would not be possible without your help, special thanks to the following Slater and Jolimont gardeners:

Ruth, Margaret, John, Cait, Fab, Jeff, Gael and Darren for looking after the stall. There were some very good sales and marketing person!
Pat, Beryl, Georgie, Miranda, Michele, Ross, Jean, Darren and Gael for donating the produce. Our stall looked beautiful with the flowers, herbs, rhubarbs and some giant board beans.
John, Cait, Gael and Darren helping with the setup and pack-up. Couldn’t do it without your help.
Shen who printed the displays at a last minute request.

If you have any feedback to make next festival better, please send them to me.
