Moving Books

The following students (with Gaynor Stroebel and I) moved 14,000 books:

Lulu G., Camille H., Lisa-Jane D, Hyun-Sub S., Olivia B., Janelle J., Juliet M., Alex R., Emily R., Cicy F., Jessie R., and Kara L.

We loaded the last third of the 20-foot rental van from Jim and Jackie Barker's home, then unloaded the entire truckload into Cobble Hill Hall for the Garden House Foundation book sale. The book sale was on Saturday, October, 17th and the proceeds will go to a foundation created by Jim and Jackie Barker. The charities that receive money from the foundation are WAVA (Women Against Violence Association), Family Living (counselling and other services for families in crisis), and the SPCA. The Barkers were happy to let us know that our efforts combined with those of the foundation and their volunteers resulted in sales Saturday totalling $5766.53!
