join the Team
We are looking to rebuild the team after our hiatus and bring in some new energy to harness the excitement our community has for the return of Elwood Primary's Community Markets. If you are interested email volunteerelwoodmarket@gmail.com
or fill out the form
Early bird Ice delivery
Are you the kind of person up at 7am on a Saturday twiddling your thumbs? We need someone to pickup a whole lot of bags of ice and drop them off to school on market mornings. This could be a job share for the 8 markets a year.

Live music coordinator
We love supporting local and emerging talent at the market. You would schedule existing performers as well as source new ones for our 2 live music areas.
Milkshakes & Juice Bar Manager
We need someone that can be there on Market Days to oversee setup and packup of the stall and brief the volunteers at the start of each shift.
Storage organiser
Are you a Marie Kondo/Home edit/ organiser junkie? We need help to fix our market storage. Sadly we can't afford the pretty containers but we definitely need the concept of everything has a place ..oh and there's lots of backstock! This will likely take a team to achieve but is a one off, providing everything get labelled.
Helpers on the day
With so many different volunteers coming in to help it's important to have people to oversee and direct to the jobs that need doing on the day. We need regulars who come consistently for the same part of each market day. Market runs 7.30am to 2pm. We need helpers for bake stall, food prep, juice/milkshake bar, rubbish management.

Volunteer Coordinator
This is largely a desk job in the weeks before the market. Send out emails to parent reps, watch the responses and respond with additional promo when it's slow. Prepare the roster and distribute.

Design a job
Have you noticed a need, do you have useful connections or skills that the market could benefit from? Let us know - welcome all help.
Signs and Advertising
Our point of sale signage needs an overhaul. We can always do more to advertise the market to attendees and potential new stall holders. You could create the plan and/or see it through.
