Barnes and Noble Day! Support Literacy. Support Our School Library.
Join us at Barnes and Noble Day on Saturday, December 3, 2011 This is a great fundraising event for the Our Lady Peace Catholic School Library. It is through events like this that we are able to get new books, replace well-loved favorites, and keep our library current. Our Lady of Peace library will receive a percentage of all sales on December 3! All you have to do is stop by the Highland Barnes and Noble located at 2080 Ford Parkway in St Paul and mention that you are with the Our Lady of Peace Book Fair. Join us for crafts, music, gift wrapping and story telling from 11:00 am to 2:00 pm! Can't make it in to the store? No problem. You can shop online or at ANY Barnes and Noble nationwide. Just use the code: 10592632 and your purchase will be applied to Our Lady of Peace. Learn more about how online purchases between Dec. 3 and Dec. 9 can benefit the library. |
