The event raised more than $600 for the organisation, which aims to help Leeton shire residents during a time of need and crisis.
It also doubled as a place for residents to sign the "Hands off The Irrigator" petition.
JumpStart president Rob Hillier was impressed with the support of the community.
"It was pretty busy all morning and slowed down around lunch time, but by then we had almost sold out of everything we had on sale," Mr Hillier said.
"The raffle was won and run, which contributed to the final total.
"I thought it was good to get out there again ... we haven't done any bigger fund-raisers or events this year."
Last year JumpStart held a Minute to Win It fund-raiser, which was based on a television program.
Prior to that its largest fund-raiser was the building and selling of a house in Moreton Bay Drive.
"We've only been doing little things to keep the money ticking over," Mr Hillier said.
"We'll probably get stuck into something bigger again next year.
"You don't want to wear our volunteers or the community out by always holding something."
The organisation is also after new committee members to be part of its team.
"We're always looking for new people to come on board, particularly young ones," Mr Hillier said.
"We only meet once every two months, so it's not that big of a commitment. It does get a bit busier if we have an event coming up, but it's a really fun organisation to be part of."
