Fundraising Events

Summer Book Sale

Our major event is the summer book sale, held the last weekend of July. Currently, it is conducted at the Friday Harbor Elementary School off Grover St. The sale starts on Friday evening with a special opening for members of the friends only. Saturday, the sale starts at 10 am and ends in the afternoon.

Books in general are sold by the inch measured at the spine. Videos, coffee table books, old volumes, and audio books are often specially but reasonably priced.

Holiday Book Sale

In the fall, after Halloween and before Thanksgiving is our Holiday Book Sale. This usually held at the library. Selected books are out on sale to allow people to find special items for what else? The Holidays. It is held Saturday from 10 am to mid afternoon.

Friday Harbor Holiday Bazaar

We can also be found at the Friday Harbor Holiday Bazaar held the weekend after Thanksgiving. Her one can find bead jewelry, note cards, Christmas cards and other items made by our volunteers.

Kings Market Rebate Program

Kings Market offers a 1% Rebate Program to local schools, churches and nonprofits. The rebate is based upon receipts from Kings Market, Kings Variety, and Kings Marine stores.

We’re gathering receipts to submit on a quarterly basis to Kings. As you shop and receive Kings receipts, deposit them in our clear plastic collection box on the Bargain Book Cart in Treasure Cove.

All proceeds we receive from this program are used to fund Library events such as the Live and Learn series and the Children’s Summer Reading program.
