Wave good bye to winter and come to the Friends’ Book Sale in the Manual Training School. Friday, April 1st from 3 pm to 5 pm is for Friends Members only. Saturday April 2nd from 10 am to 4 pm. Everyone is Welcome. We have a great selection of books for all age groups, dvds, cds and puzzles (some which are 3D).
