Thank you. SEPTEMBER 27: Kids in Biz! We are now full. This is the day children get a chance to be vendors and learn entrepreneurial skills. All items must be handmade or homemade under adult supervision. If you signed up on our website, you will be emailed specific info. Anyone selling food must bring a tent and weights. All children should bring a SMALL table and chair (not a 6 ft table). Check in at 9:15 at INFO on the Market Green.
OCTOBER 4: ‘ IT’S OLNEY TIME’ TAKES PLACE OCTOBER 4TH. RAIN DATE IS OCTOBER 18TH. This is the day you can find out about the groups that make Olney tick. Enjoy free samples and sign up to volunteer.

It’s fine to play music during set up or when the band is on a break. Thanks for your cooperation! Also, a reminder that vendors should NOT "hawk their wares”. We want Sunday to be a laid-back day for everyone. FOOD SCRAPS: As part of a Montgomery County-sponsored pilot, Compost Cab will accept food scraps from our customers.
