We’re still finalizing all of the numbers, but, it looks like the book sale netted around $130,000 and over 6,300 people attended! 

Thanks for your sensational support!

Thank you to the City of Guelph for relaxing by-law enforcement,  and to these neighbouring businesses for allowing us to use their parking lots during the sale.
