Trash and Treasure Market Jamison
The Trash and Treasure Market is held each Sunday from 7am to 12pm and is the Belconnen Rotary Club's major source of funds, raising more than $7 million since its inception in 1974. These funds support the Club's many local, national and international projects.
We have a Trash and Treasure event on Humanitix where you can find out more about the markets and book a site if you would like to have a stall.
To celebrate 50 years of service, the Belconnen Rotary Club sought a significant community project, and, after much consideration, Past President Rod Gardiner proposed a partnership with Australian Rotary Health (ARH) to fund a medical research scholarship.
A small group, a quarter of the Club’s membership, volunteered at the start of June to remove an overgrown Kiwi Fruit vine from the school vegetable garden so students can resume learning about the magic of gardening; the vine has become severely overgrown and had taken over the whole plot.
As part of the connection that the Rotary Club of Belconnen has with the University of Canberra, we have donated the 'Welcome to Country' artwork that can be found outside the Ngunnawal Centre on Pantowara Street on the university campus.
