Rotary Book Sale

The Portage Rotary Club's annual used book sale is coming up and they're asking you to donate gently used books for their sale.

Book sale co-chair Derek R McCutcheon explains where you can drop of books you wish to donate.

"We have bins around the community, such as the ones at Portage Supermarket, Shoppers Drug Mart, Off The Top, MIG, Panko's, Sobeys and the Portage CO-OP, and we collect used books then we take those books to the Portage Mall and we're selling them November 3rd, 4th, and 5th."

McCutcheon says it's important they collect a lot of books, especially kids books, because everyone under twelve gets a free book. He adds they aren't asking people for textbooks as those don't typically sell.

All proceeds from the sale go toward the Rotary's community projects.

The book sale takes place Thursday, November 3rd and Friday, November 4th from 1:00 to 8:00 as well as Saturday, November 5th from 10:00 until 6:00 at the Portage Mall.
