April 24th, 2018 FVRD Grant-in-Aid Application for: Deroche Farmers Market The Deroche Farmers Market Society is a non-profit organization managed and operated by volunteers. We are starting the new 2018 season in June with a new operating day and time, Saturdays 9-1. We have one new Board member who has some fresh ideas to help the market flourish within the community. We want to expand the markets advertising efforts in hopes to bring in more vendors with a larger variety of products. We will continue again to host multiple celebrations and events. We will need funds to help cover advertising and new signage, tent repair, new tables and chairs. We intend to host 5 fundraising events during the regular market days: a plant sale and car wash, opening day celebration, a childrens festival, a safety day and a salmon celebration. We wish to provide our local communities of Deroche, Dewdney, Lake Errock and Harrison Mills with the opportunity to showcase and/or purchase local “make, bake and grow” items. With this we also want to provide a community gathering place for all ages. There are very few local events that can bring our community together. Being the small and unique community that we are, we feel that having this weekly market event will provide an opportunity to develop both economically and socially. The Deroche Farmers Market will run every Saturday from June 9th to Sept 22nd, 2017. Our first fundraiser will take place on May 12th. We would like to request aid in the amount of $2425. This amount will also help to cover the new rental policy of a $25 fee per use of the FVRD parking lot in Deroche. Your consideration is greatly appreciated.
