Dauphin Rotary Club is putting the final touches to the 8th Avenue hall, as they get set to host their annual Fall Book Fair later this week.

Rotarian Jean-Louis Guillas is very impressed with the book donations that they have received so far.

"It is phenomenal.  The quality of stuff that is coming in is fantastic as always.  I am always surprised at the quality and variety of books that come in, whether that is kid's books or fiction or history.  It's fantastic as always."

Guillas adds there will be a wide variety of books for people of all ages.

"A lot of local cookbooks coming in, such as groups in Gilbert Plains that put together a cookbook.  Some good things on "How-to", on different types of crafts.  Some really good books on art,  I just got some nice music books.  And then fiction as well, always lots of good stuff, and really wonderful support from the community with regards to current books - books that have been released in the last year or two - coming in."   

Guillas adds you can still drop off book donations right through the entire sale.

In partnership with this year's book fair, the Crocus Quilters group will be on site all three days to show off their work and will hold their monthly quilting bee on Thursday.

The sale goes from 9 am to 7 pm on Thursday and Friday, and 9 to 4 on Saturday.

Guillas also reminds you that it is a cash-only sale and that you should bring your own bag for your purchases.
