The 2025 Spring Sale Is Coming!
Spring is on its way, and with it the AAUW Spring Book Sale!
This year the Sale will be held on Thursday, April 24 and
Friday, April 25, from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
Cash or check only.
The Sale raises funds for the Scholarship Trust and also serves as neighborhood outreach. Each year we have 50 or so people who ask for advance notice of the following year’s sale, and tell us how pleased they are to see the postcard.
However, a successful sale depends on the books that you provide to us. Right now, we are lightly stocked, especially for newer and current books. Between now and April 1, please bring your books to a Tuesday meeting or call the house ahead of time for assistance. As a reminder, we cannot take textbooks, magazines, book with the “old book” odor and over-loved-books.
The Book Ends do enjoy unpacking the boxes and bags, and discussing the variety of books that are donated. It shows the breadth of interests among our members, from memoir and fiction to politics and business.
The Scholarship Trust and the Book Ends thank you for your donations!
