Plan to shop at Linden Tree while you raise money for a great cause:

10% of supporters' purchases go to Los Altos Stage Company all day on Saturday, August 2, from 9:30AM to 5:30PM!*
 
Whether you are picking up your own copy of the Wizard of Oz books and books inspired by the story and characters or any other items in the store including puppets, games, cookbooks, adult fiction and all other merchandise, you will be supporting a local independent store AND a local treasure at the same time!

Make sure you get your tickets before they are sold out -- this is a great show for all ages that runs July 18 - August 3, 2014!

*Just tell us when you are checking out that you are a Los Altos Stage or Youth Theater supporter and 10% of your total purchase for the day will go back to the organization.

Interested in a fundraiser for your group? Because Linden Tree has such a wide variety of gifts, music and pages for all ages, we can host events of all shapes and sizes. Email Dee at dee@lindentreebooks.com today and unleash your imagination as you raise funds in an exciting and engaging way.
