Plenty on offer at Willaura

Music, entertainment and the best of regional produce and homemade goods will be on offer at this year’s Willaura Healthcare Outdoor Market on Sunday.

The market, next to Willaura Healthcare centre in Delacombe Way, will be from 10am to 2pm.

Willaura Healthcare Auxiliary member and market coordinator Jane Millear said the market was shaping up to be a great day for families.

She said market stalls would include jams, preserves, homewares, metal art, cards, jewellery, art and craft, chocolate, fudge, plants, soy candles and more.

“Not only will we have stalls packed with homemade and homegrown goods, but we will have music and children’s entertainment,” she said.

“Popular music duo SOFT will return to the market this year and we’ll have musical entertainment from Ararat 800 Primary School’s choir and Willaura Primary School’s band and choir.”

Mrs Millear said children’s entertainment would include a jumping castle, mini-golf and trackless train.

She added that vintage cars would also be on display for motoring enthusiasts and gourmet food and coffee and Willaura Auxiliary’s Tea House would also be at the market.

During the past 12 years Willaura Healthcare Outdoor Market has raised more than $63,000 for Willaura Healthcare, with money going towards new furnishings and fittings, equipment and activities.
