Mount Carmel Media Sale – benefits MC Library
Donation Dates: Tuesday, April 12, room B-5 or before April 13, MC library
Sale Dates: 7am-5pm, Thursday & Friday, April 14 & 15
The MCHS PTSA is proud to announce our spring MC Media Sale. We are asking for donations of gently used media (books, books on tape/CD, music CDs, DVDs, VHS, etc.) by the surrounding community to then sell at low prices back to the community on April 14 and 15. All proceeds raised will benefit the Library at the Mount.
The library uses funds from this event to purchase books and magazines the students to enjoy. The librarian’s make their selections for the library before the rest of the shoppers, at our last event they got 12 donated books that they added to the library’s collection. Teachers finding items to use in their classrooms receive these items at no charge. And of course, the people purchasing these items are getting a great value along with their entertainment and education.
Do your spring cleaning this spring break and donate your media items to MCHS PTSA. Drop off donations at room B-5 on Tuesday, April 12, or at the school library before April 13.
