BOOKSTALL ASSISTANTS

A big thank you to all who have helped on the bookstall in the last year. Without your help it would have been impossible for HGS to attend all the events from Weston-super-Mare to London and places in between in 2009.

Thank you also to all those who have made donations of books and magazines to sell on, or to give away free to members and potential members. All of this has been helpful to our customers and HGS finances.

We hope to continue the good work in 2010 and if you live in Hampshire or 'out of county' and would like to help on the stall when it is in your area, please see the list of where we will be and when. Contact Chris, who will be pleased to hear from you, for further details.

Please contact Chris, the HGS Bookstall Manager - for further information on how you can help.
