A WORD FROM OUR MEMBERS

Thanks to the Girls and Guys

                What a wonderful group the Girls and Guys are!  They arrive on time—bring all their tables and equipment.   Within about 2 hours have everything displayed and priced!  WOW!

                After the sale they package everything that hasn’t sold and leave the house neat and clean.  They are not only efficient but fun.

                What can I say but Thanks a Million!

                        Marge Gorman

Children's books needed

Isles volunteers for Boaters for Books need your new and used books for children of all ages.

Books are sorted, packed and shipped to schools and libraries in the Caribbean. Boaters for Books is a Federal and Florida non-profit literacy organization that has shipped thousands of books to needy children over the past eight years. There is a book drop box conveniently located in the foyer of the PG Isles Civic Center or call 276-5602 and a volunteer will pick up your donation. Used books can be purchased at many locations, including the Charlotte County School Surplus Store at the intersection of Bal Harbor and Aqui Esta (behind Wachovia Bank) where books can be purchased for .50 - $1.00.

Learn more about this all volunteer literacy project at www.boatersforbooks.org.
