Great success for the 26th Brocante The 26th edition of the Fall Antiques Aulnois took place Sunday, Oct. 3 in bright sunshine.
5:30 From all members of the Rural Families Association were on war footing to enable everyone to find its place as quickly as possible. The bargain hunters and hikers have come in numbers to go around the flea market, sidewalk sale which hosted about 200 exhibitors, but also some private professionals.
Inside the room, as every year, a seller of capsules, but also craftsmen came to exhibit and sell their work.
restoration proposed by the association was a victim of its success ! Sandwiches, french fries ("houses" please!), Merguez sausage, waffles, pastries, hot beverages and soft drinks, everything went very quickly and unfortunately we have not been able to serve everyone, despite our efforts to resupply during the shooting of noon!
All day, we also sold raffle envelopes the benefit of home entertainment. This year, thanks to the generosity of many donors, all envelopes were winning the grot batch consolation prize. Thank you notament: General Council, the Leclerc store at Carrefour store in the city of Laon, and a few other traders, for all the lots they have provided us.
The flea market is a big organization, but also the same day in advance with all the preparation involved. Thank you to all the volunteers who gave their support before, during but also after the event, when it comes to store and clean, pick up everything that exhibitors leave on their sites .. And there's plenty to do!
A big thank you to Valentin, our youngest volunteer and faithful, that again this year, was on his bike before sunrise to Exhibitor guide to their locations, and that helped us throughout the day!
We will not fail to note that other girls volunteers have also helped many taking the stand of angling throughout the afternoon. A big thank you to them also!
And see you next year, October 2, 2011!
