image_20241114101905

We deal in used books, selling them to raise funds to donate to Poudre Libraries. So several times a year, we need help in getting those books to and from our book sales at the libraries. This requires a person capable of lifting 20-30 lb. boxes of books and pushing a loaded dolly. We hold 3 big sales every year and often several smaller sales. The time required is 1-3 hours. Usually setup is on a weekday afternoon around 3 or 4 p.m.
