Calling all book lovers!
The 27th Annual Monroe County Red Cross Book Fair will be held from September 30th through October 5th, 2010 at the Monroe County Fairgrounds, Commercial Building West in Bloomington, Indiana. One of the largest charity bookselling events in the Midwest, we offer 80,000-100,000 donated books, LPs, CDs, DVDs, magazines, puzzles and much more at wonderful prices. All proceeds benefit the humanitarian mission of the Red Cross right here at home.
Book lovers of all ages come on opening day when they can get the best
selection. Admission is $10, doors open at Noon on Thursday, Sept. 30th. After Thursday, admission is free from Friday through Tuesday and the times vary each day. This year, we will also offer two days (October 1st and 2nd) of "Book Bucks" coupons. Book Fair patrons who donate non-perishable food items for the Hoosier Hills Food Bank will receive a "Book Buck" good for $1 off merchandise on those days. We are also excited to announce a "Military Family Appreciation Day" on Sunday, Oct. 3rd. Military families can show their ID and receive free "goodie bags" for their kids. Contact us at (812) 332-7292 or redcross@monroe-redcross.org for more information or to volunteer for this event, or visit us on the web at http://monroe-redcross.org/news_bookfair_history.aspx.
