The Book Fair is on 19-20 March. Drop off points are at The Professionals in Whitby, BP Mana, P&Z Decorating in Porirua. Allan Nichols is urgently requesting helpers and reserves to pick up, sort and pack the quantity of books expected to arrive in the next few weeks. Pick ups will be a daily job. The Book Fair is being advertised on Porirua City Council Facebook page, and members who have their own facebook page are being asked to put it up there.
