Book Sale Volunteers,
We’re looking forward to seeing you again as we prepare for our popular Fall Book Sale.
We hope you’ll be available to help, as we need many sorting hands….The Book Sale will be three days – November 21, 22, & 23.
You did an amazing job last spring. We know you’re aware how much work is involved, so if you can lend a hand, however short a time, we will be grateful.
As volunteers, you can purchase books for $1 each as you sort (some unique items will be specially priced).Please feel free to just drop in during the sorting times, but it would help with our planning to know when you are coming. Could you email booksaleffsl@gmail.com with your tentative times? Looking forward to seeing you all.
