The Lincoln Scouts Group is currently accepting donations of good quality books. Now is the<br />

time to clear out those bookshelves. Books can be dropped at the hall or the group are more<br />

than happy to pick up around the township if you have a larger quantity of books to donate.<br />

All donations will be gratefully received. Once your shelves are empty and you are looking<br />

for winter reading material, or that special book, the group would then love to see you at the<br />

sale. For those supporters returning to the sales you will continue to enjoy quality books at<br />

bargain prices (all books are $2), some children’s books are even cheaper. The book sale will<br />

be held on <strong>May</strong> 19 and 20. For those new to the township the sales have become an institution<br />

in Lincoln. For any inquiries email fundraising@lincolnscouts.org.nz The drop-off session will be<br />

held at 6.30pm-8pm, on Tuesday and Wednesday and then the following week <strong>May</strong> 16 and 17,<br />
