"It is our major fundraising event for the year and we were very disappointed we couldn't run the event in 2021," she said.
"We have had over 1000 people come through our market previously, so it is a much bigger event than when we first started.
"We welcome everyone to come, although we do ask visitors to the market to consider giving the auxiliary a gold coin donation."
