Flea Market was 9/9/2023
Saturday Sept 9th, 2023
The weather held out for this annual tradition! We were faced with possible thunder showers but that did not happen until after 4pm.
- The Flea Market was active as ever. We would really like to first send a "shout out" to our Vendors who rent space and make this thing happen! Thank you all very much and we hope that you were successful in your sales.
- The Golden Monkey Cafe came and served up a great lunch for just $5. We had an ice cream salesman, and a group walking and selling cups of fresh fruit. Thank you for coming!
- I hope all you shoppers found that treasure you were or weren't looking for!! Thanks for coming to take a look!
- Thank you all who bought a DUCK!! There were 2 exciting races. Lucky winners First Race #77 and #32; Second Race #86 and #02.
- We had a RAFFLE put together by Bonnie and Tom with several great prizes donated from local businesses: Christopher's Cafe, The Tides, Jersey Mikes, Mackano Tattoo, Adore the Ink Tattoo, Golden Monkey Cafe, Charlie's Seafood, Rolly's Restaurant, Fantasy Island, One Mighty Mill, Capital Diner, Tepeyac Cocina Mexicana, Fauci Pizza, Vicky's Restaurant, Wyoma Sq Hardware, Blackscissors Cut, Kilroy Chiropractor, TC Nails and Spa.
- We had a bake sale with lots of goodies donated from GPA members.
- And of course our Ward 3 Councilor Coco taking lots of pictures!
Planting Day was Saturday May 27,2023
Planting Day was May 27th. We had beautiful weather and good group of volunteers. The center island looks great!
Thank you Lynn Ladder
Use of the planking from Lynn Ladder to cross to the island always makes this job very manageable.
FY 2023 Goldfish Pond received a grant for the Children's Garden Planting Day. Thank you Lynn Cultural Council for a grant to make this possible.

Events
Annual Neighborhood Flea Market
The Goldfish Pond Fun and Flea Day is the neighborhood association's one time fundraiser. How does the Flea market work? Table space is rented to vendors, no experience necessary! It is a great chance to clean out your old stuff and make new friends. Over 5,000 people attend this great Lynn event. That's a lot of people! Better than running your own yard sale.
- Table space $35 in advance, $45 day of
- Always scheduled on that 2nd Saturday in September
