Thank You!

The Buy-One Get-One Free Book Fair held last week was a huge success! We exceeded our total sales over last year's Spring fair by $500 and we earned $150 in free books for the Library Media Center. But the most important aspect of the Book Fair sales is this: you put purchased and free books in the hands of your children for their summer reading pleasure. Good for you!!

Special thanks to Miss Holloran, Mr. Peringer, and Mrs. Meegan for helping set-up the Fair on Tuesday afternoon. Thanks also to Mrs. Simard who helped out during the Cinco de Mayo dinner Thursday night and who got the Fair started on Friday morning, as well as to Mrs. Blier who ran the final sales period when I was not in the building.

I've just finished packing everything up and was pleased to look at receipts and see some of the book choices that your children made. Lots of good reading will be happening in these next months thanks to your support in making this Book Fair a success.
