ARE YOU AVAILABLE TO HELP OUT AT THE BOOK FAIR? 

HERE ARE THE TIMES AND SCHEDULE OF WHEN  WE NEED HELP AND WHEN YOUR STUDENTS ARE VISITING THE FAIR:

To sign-up, please send in this form or go to www.bartlettptb.org/bookfair to volunteer online or call  Dawn Jastrzebski 630-736-7447.

In addition to tweaking displays and decorating, help during the classroom visits 11/16-11/20 is mainly assisting the students with book purchases. The younger children need the most help. At the evening book fair, 11/18, we need floor help and a team of people to work the registers. Take down on 11/20 consists of loading books into boxes and moving the carts out of the library. Take down goes very quickly.

Thanks, in advance, for your help and support.
