Schwan’s Truck Load Sale and more
The Schwan’s Truck will be in front of the Library on Tuesday June 15th from 10:00 am to 8:00 pm to assist the Library in raising funds to purchase materials for the facility. There are three ways you can participate in the fundraiser: 1. Purchase items the day of the event. 2. Reserve products online for pick up at the Library the day of the event. Go to www.schwansfundraising.com and use Campaign ID: 28675. 3. Order a Gift Certificate by calling 1-888-SCHWANS, select option 4 and provide the Campaign ID: 28675. The Certificate will ship to the address of your choice. Gift Certificates are a great way to help the Library and still support your local driver if you are already receiving delivery at your residence.
