The Market is now open…Happy Shopping!

We were told yesterday because we do not carry a Million Dollar Liability Insurance Policy and do not pay for use of the space, we will no longer have access to the Hamilton Mill Community Clubhouse as our Market pickup location.

I spoke with Liz Carter, (Vice-President of the Board of Directors) this morning and she informed me that this was effective immediately. After some discussion, she relented and gave us until the end of June to vacate.

However,

To further complicate matters, there is a Swim Meet scheduled for this next Thursday and we must vacate the premises by 3:00pm. This would mean we would schedule Market pickup between 12:45 – 2:45pm. Although this does not (in theory) propose issues, in reality it does. Some of the issues include:

• The logistics of changing all Farmer drop off times at the Crossfit O-Zone Lawrenceville location
• The ability of the Farmers to meet the earlier drop off times which would be two hours earlier
• Finding someone who can pick up items in Lawrenceville, take to Hamilton Mill, unload and set-up Market. Sarah Rockey usually does this, however, she works prior to volunteering for Market.
• I have no flexibility to do this task due to another Market Coordinator being on vacation which means I am coordinating the Lilburn Market.

Therefore

Market Pickup for June 18th will be at Crossfit O-Zone Lawrenceville Location. Pickup times will be between 1:45pm – 5:00pm.

Although the Lawrenceville location is about 15 minutes from the Hamilton Mill location, I realize this is an inconvenience. It is the best we can do for this week. You have have been faithful Members of the Market and we truly have done everything to ensure you get the best-of-the best in all that is offered.

Beyond next week, please know we are searching for another Pickup Location and will keep you informed of the progress! If you have any suggestions, or know of somewhere that would allow us use of space for 2.5 hours on Thursdays, please call me at 404-432-4337 with the information.

Thank you for your support!

See you at Market on Thursday!
