A HUGE THANK YOU to all the volunteers that helped make our first booksale a big success!! Your help and dedication resulted in a seamless event that was fun and a great way to connect with each other and with the community.
Here’s an idea of what it took to make this happen:
Sorting and pricing books – Holly Murten, Susan Chenven, Glen Salgado, Frances Schroeder, Phyllis Marion
Set up, tear down, stocking, and making sure books were organized : Chuck Leib, Holly, Don Rudesill, Tom Littell, Kim McDaniel, Jean Stein, Dolores Burns, Jenny Hartman, Stephanie Thompson
Advertising – Sue Eubanks (who printed out new price lists) Al Hoefer ( who maintains our website and will post pics) and Carol Mosely, who posted on Nextdoor.
Cashiering and Accounting – Pat Littell and Ruth Rudesill
Bookcart stocking – Jean and Phyllis
And of course, Steve and Anselmo, librarians extraordinaire who worked with us and helped us every step of the way!!
That said, our efforts today brought in $541!!! In addition, we started putting out 2 book carts in March, and the past 2 weeks those carts have brought in $220 and $216 respectively!!
So again, thanks so much for being the best bunch of volunteers, and for those of you who couldn’t make it, we hope to see you at the next sale….plans are already in motion as the donations keep coming in. lol.)
Until then, enjoy getting back to some normalcy!
