July-September The Big Book Sale Libraries For the Future Update

The Big Book Sale
September 22-24, 2000 Volunteers Volunteers Volunteers We are rapidly approaching the BIG EVENT. September is drawing near and the
pace in the basement is increasing, as are the boxes of books. We have found
an organization to move the books to the Crockett Center, but WE NEED YOU!
Book boxes have to be distributed by subject category and books must be
arranged on the tables. With a one day set-up we need lots of folks to help
out. You worked wonders at our last sale. Everything was up and ready for
the preview sale on Friday evening with time to spare - although some of us
could have used the spare time for a massage and shower! It would have cost
us an additional $1250.00 to set up on Thursday, money the library could put
to better use. As usual, we will need lots of help on Saturday and Sunday
collecting money, assisting customers, and keeping the tables fully stocked.
Hopefully we will have an easy time with the Sunday clean-up. It is vital
that we have everything packed up and out by midnight. I will be calling all
my lists asking for your help. If there are new Friends who would like to
volunteer, or someone I may have missed in the past, please call me at
(512) 453-6186. I look forward to seeing you in September. Connie Moore
