En Ka Society Seeks Book Donations

The En Ka Society, Winchester's oldest women's service organization, seeks donations of lightly-used children’s and adult books to support the book sale tent at the society’s annual Street Fair, scheduled for May 16 and 17.  This year’s fair is titled “Lights, Camera, En Ka!”

Between April 1st and May 5th, books may be left anytime at the Sanborn House’s Carriage House collection shed, adjacent to the Ambrose School at 27 High Street.  Look for signs saying “Book Drop Here.”  Books should be placed in small, easy to handle boxes.  Please wrap boxes in plastic to protect the books from the elements.En Ka is particularly in need of gently read paperback fiction, mysteries, and children’s books.  DVDs, audiotapes and CDs in good condition are also much appreciated. No VHS tapes, text books, encyclopedias, magazines or condensed books please.

The En Ka Street Fair has been a tradition in Winchester since 1934, and is the primary fundraiser for the En Ka Society.  ALL Fair proceeds go back into the community, through grants awarded to local non-profit, civic and charitable organizations.  For more information or to volunteer at the “Lights, Camera, En Ka!” Fair, please contact us at Fair@EnKaSociety.org or visit our website at www.enkasociety.org
