[Activity Announcement] 2011.11.06_Book Swap/Donation

Hello again Good People!

Do you have any books at home you're finished with? Are you interested in swapping any books?

This coming Sunday morning (Nov 6) from 9:30-12:30, there's a book swap activity at Sun Yat Sun Memorial Hall, in front of the water fountain. It's sponsored by Hess, one of the schools I work at (and which is offering us the use of a classroom to meet in). It's actually called a Reading Family Fun Fair. If you take a book to give away, you can get another book.

If you can't go, but would like to donate some books, you can also do that. Hess is collecting books this week (through this Friday Nov 4) at 2 places:

--Minquan E Rd and Songjiang Rd Hess Main Office(民權東路松江路口), 5th floor (opposite Xing Tian Gong)
--Xinyi Rd and Tonghua Rd corner Hess branch (信義通化街口) (opposite Watson's)

Thanks! Happy reading...

Lynn :)
