BOOKS CAFÉ REOPENS BY APPOINTMENT
Closed down by the pandemic in March of 2020, the Wye Parish Books Café reopens to the public for individual appointments at the regular location, St. Luke’s Chapel, 7208 Main St., Queenstown.
On offer, the usual huge assortment of books at 90% off. VBS Celebration Sunday will be June 27th at 9:30 am.
The Children’s Room is full of attractive reading for all ages, and the former lunchroom (there will be no food service) has become the “Book Nook” with Mysteries, Nature, Science, True Crime, “Potpourri” ( a miscellany for browsing), and an exceptional range of books of Local and Regional interest. The big History collection, including Military History, has grown even bigger, and an enlarged Nautical collection will also be available – plus, as always, lots of good fiction, hardcover and paperback, and much more.
Now, with COVID on the wane, the Books Café team, which never stopped receiving and processing book donations, is considering a few more one-shot public openings before the annual multi-day Books Café to resume in February/March 2022.
For more information (or to schedule an appointment for a private opening), call the Parish Office 410.827.8484.
