Even though some full-season vendors — such as Jennifer Michelle Massage, who many people are looking forward to seeing again — will miss the opening date, this is a good preview of what’s to come during our market’s second year. During peak season (July and August) even more vendors are scheduled to take part.
The opening band will be Spokaloo, featuring E-G’s very own Bryant McKinley. We’ll also be honoring Claire Menzer and Karissa Orlob, the two winners of the market’s first-ever poster contest, on June 6.
Trinity Catholic School will have a table where they’ll be selling bingo tickets for their 24th annual Cow Plop, a fun neighborhood event with cash prizes that will take place the following day. The Main Market Co-op might also be there with an info table.
Last but not least, the central market booth will have a limited number of $20 dump passes for E-G residents in case they didn’t get a chance to offload everything during Spring Cleanup. To claim a pass, be sure to bring ID.
