MOW Annual Flea Market

It's that time of the year again! That's right the annual flea market held by the Man-O-War All Age School. This is always held near the MOW Marina property. Locals from all over Abaco and visitors a like look forward to this event every year. People start asking from December if I know what date the Flea market is set for next year? lol. This event generally draws several hundred people.

There are lots of tables set up with people selling off items... art, dinners, conch salad, fruit preserves, desserts, items that they just don't need anymore. Remember one man's junk is another man's treasure. Of course there are games for the kids such as take a chance, raffle, and even sojer crab races most of time!

This is the big fund raiser for the Man-O-War All Age School. It seems that for the last 7 - 8 years I've missed the majority of the event as I always have to show property that Saturday, but I do my part and have someone pick up a few items for me and buy a few raffle tickets.

If you're in Abaco, please come on out and support the school. You can catch the 10:30am ferry from Marsh Harbour to Man-O-War and there are ferries going back to Marsh Harbour through out the day.
