Another edition of the Fall Rotary Book Fair is right around the corner.

This year's book fair will run from November 8-11 at the Ukrainian Orthodox Hall.

Book fair co-ordinator and Dauphin Rotary member Jean-Louis Guillas says they are always appreciative of the support they receive from the community.

"The quality of the books that we get donated, and the volume, and then the willingness of people to keep coming back and buy books.  Because we do not have a full-fledged bookstore in the community, for many people this is their book shopping.  I encourage people to come and do their Christmas shopping."

Brand new for this year will be a Spirits and Sweets event, which will take place on the evening of November 10th. 

"We have nine different vendors coming with a variety of spirits.  And in partnership with Irving's Catering, we are going to have dessert samples.  So all of these will be samples, both the tastings and the desserts.  "

Guillas encourages anyone wanting to donate books to the fair to do so in advance.

"Donation bins are going to go out in front of the hall starting on October 27th.  And you can bring your books there.  The bins will be labeled Rotary books and will be out in front of the hall, and you can place your donations in there.  And that will give us the chance to sort them ahead of time and get them in the right category."

The book fair will begin at 9 a.m. on November 8th to 10th and at 1 p.m. on the 11th. 

This is Rotary Radio Week on 730 CKDM, as we profile some of the great work done by local Rotarians.
