FOOD PANTRY: there is an ongoing collection for our food pantry during November and December. Please see last week’s memo for the specifics. Also, they have requested that we ask for gently used children’s books to distribute with the Thanksgiving and Christmas food items. Since we started collecting used books for the food pantry a couple of years ago, it has become very popular and they would like to continue the practice. Thank you for your generosity!!!

Don’t forget! The book fair is in the St. Bridget school library this week. It will continue through Friday the 16^th for students to visit. In addition, the book fair will be open before the PTO meeting on Wednesday the 14^th and at the Craft Fair on Sunday, the 18^th for anyone who is unable to make it during the week. Every student should have received a flyer this week. The flyers represent only a small sample of the books available for purchase. Books make wonderful Christmas gifts, so stop in to see what is available. We accept cash and checks (made out to St. Bridget PTO), but not credit cards. We do not collect sales tax for this event. All profits go directly to the school library. Listed below is the schedule for when each class will be going to the fair. If you have any questions about the Book Fair or would like to volunteer helping the children pick out books, please contact Karen Ostrowski at 508-881-1302 or Kathy Schwab at 508-429-5188.
