Big Book Sale in Westport, MA
For many years Melinda and I worked with all our Westport Monthly Meeting Quaker friends on an Annual Book Fair. During our last year, 2019, we raised over $50,000 selling 35,000+ books, CDs, DVDs, albums and puzzles. A significant percentage of the money raised is used to support local non-profit organizations providing critical services to the greater-Westport area.
We moved full-time to Jackson in November 2019 and the plan was to finish Book Sale Transition Training in 2020 and then COVID hit. After two years of no Book Sale, the Book Sale is a go for this coming weekend and I have travelled in Stargazer to Westport to help out in any way I can and finish the training.
Gretchen Baker-Smith is now the Book Sale Clerk and has been doing an amazing job managing this year’s Book Sale. There will be over 30,000 books, CDs,, DVDs, albums and puzzles. The weather is looking good!
