Free Book and DVD Exchange at the Grange in Castle Rock Colorado
Posted by: | Comments
The Meadows sub-division in Castle Rock Colorado is kicking of the new year with their annual book and movie exchange. What a great idea to recycle and reuse those books you’ve already read, and movies you are tired of. It’s all free and you don’t have to donate to come and take advantage of the free books.
The exchange will take place at:
The Grange
3692 Meadows Boulevard
Castle Rock CO MAP
Saturday, January 16, 2010, from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m.
The Meadows Cultural Affairs Association* is promoting this community even to help you recycle books and movies for free which not only helps the environment but helps ease the strains on your pocketbook in this fluctuating economy. Castle Rock is full of book lovers, the local librarians in the area and on Twitter will agree so the area is perfect for this type of event.
Please bring your gently used books and DVD’s to The Grange Tuesday-Saturday, 10 a.m.-5 p.m. and Sunday-Monday 12-5 p.m., now through Thursday, January 14. All types of books are accepted: fiction, non-fiction, young adult, children’s and DVD’s. They can not accept encyclopedias, reference books or VHS tapes.
Then, anyone in the community is invited to return on January 16, 2010 from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. to browse through the stacks and pick out some favorites. You do not have to donate books in order to participate.
All leftover books and DVD’s will be donated to local non-profit associations.

Trick or Treat on Mainstreet Parker Colorado a SUCCESS!
Posted by: | CommentsTrick or Treat on Mainstreet in Parker Colorado October 31, 2009
WOW! Parker really out did itself with this great event for the families in Parker. Even though my kids are grown, we had a great time checking out the creative costumes, the doggie costumes and meeting all the shop owners up and down mainstreet. I had to do another post on this event to share all the great pictures I snagged. The Town of Parker, Parker Recreation and the Parker Arts Council did a fantastic job getting this to all come together after the crazy blizzard just days before.
