On Wednesday, February 28th, 2024, we held our first Book Swap Fundraiser at Bar Harbour. Several people brought books that were arranged on tables by volunteers. Then everyone got to walk around, chat, have some snacks, enter into the raffles, and pick out some “new” books to take home. We look forward to doing more events like this in the future!
