Farmers' Market
About 3-4 times a year. members of the Club assist in the running of RC Chelsea's monthly market. We man the entrance gates and the car parks from 6.30 a.m. till 12.30 on the 1st Saturday of the month. This earns us a percentage of the take, which is then distributed to local community projects.
On October 3rd, due to the recent tragic Samoan tsunami, and the Indonesian earth quakes, buckets were also rattled to raise funds for Shelterboxes, which provide shelter for those in desparate need. Approximately $2250.00 were raised, buying 2+ Shelterboxes.

HIGHLIGHTS FROM PREVIOUS YEARS
Bayside Open Homes and Gardens
This was a chance to see behind the doors and walls of some of our local most spectacular homes. The club, in conjunction with Firbank Grammar School, ran a delightful afternoon with viewing available in 6 houses. The event raised funds for our indigenous scholarships and other community projects of the club.
Dinners - Big Talkers and Bow Ties
Some of our most memorable evenings have been our fundraising dinners. RC Hampton have organised many occasions - from dinners and dancing with a twist to dinners with high profile serious speakers.
These events have given us the opportunity to raise funds for designated projects. We rely on our community for support. If you would like to know when our next function is planned, please contact the club.
The Hampton Street Spring Fashion Parade:
The Hampton Street Spring Fashion Parade Spring fashions were all the go in September at our fabulous annual fashion parade. Hampton traders - both the fashion retailers and beyond - supported this event. It was always a very entertaining evening at the St Leonard's Hall.
