24th of March is the Date for the Car Boot Sale this year.
There will be a range of other local community groups attending as well as our car boot sellers. We have the QPRC Library Bus in attendance so you can join up (if you haven’t already) and borrow some books, as well as RFS if you have any questions about bush fire preparedness. Plus many more groups to chat to.
Come along to either sell or buy or both!
