Wanted: lots more volunteers needed for the book sale!  Please volunteer for the sale. We need many more volunteers for the sale, and it is in a week and a half.

Hi Friends,

We can still use a few more volunteers on Thursday and Friday from 10am to 2pm for book sale setup.  On Saturday, we need 1-2 more volunteers from 11-6 to work during the sale. 

 

Cleanup is a magic trick that happens between 6-7pm where we make everything disappear, so drop in and lend a hand.

 

Please let me know if you can help.

 

Also, let your friends know about the sale. We had a problem with getting sale flyers out this time, so help us get the word out about the book sale on Saturday from 11-6.  Most books are still a rare bargain at $2.

 

Thanks for volunteering!
