Fox Glacier Market Day

November’s market day in Fox Glacier was a great success for the community. It was well attended and everyone enjoyed a busy and eventful day, despite road closures and floods. It was wonderful to host FENZ from Greymouth doing a fire demonstration, while the local Firies from Fox Glacier ran a lolly scramble.

Many prizes were won, including raffles, duck races and the mystery auction. Thank you to all who took part.

The Fox Glacier Community Development Society thanks the community for supporting the event, and all the vendors, some of whom travelled from Christchurch, Hokitika and Greymouth.

Special thanks go out to the event’s sponsors: Helicopter Line, Top 10, Fox Glacier Guiding, Reflection Lodge, Rainforest Lodge, Betsey Jane, Café Neve, and donors of raffle prizes, Ro Sullivan, Ann Scott and Lake Matheson’s Reflectionz.
