The best-decorated trolley will be judged at a sausage sizzle at the end of the parade and a cash donation will be awarded to the winning club.?
First prize is $300, second prize is $200 & third prize $100.
Two Market Days are better than one
Maleny Chamber of Commerce is planning two Market Days next week (Nov 3&4) to coincide with Maleny IGA's Centenary Celebration.
"We had over 35 retail businesses take part in the last one," said Stephen Dittmann. "The whole idea is to encourage retail activity. We wanted to boost the level of activity and boost retailers' morale and confidence."
