If you are a book lover or know someone who is, there is an annual event this weekend that you do not want to miss.
The Dauphin Rotary Club's spring book fair goes from Thursday until Saturday at the 8th Avenue Hall.
It runs from 9 am to 7 pm on Thursday, and 9 until 5 on both Friday and Saturday.
Jean-Louis Guillas with the Dauphin Rotary Club says there is a great variety of books available this weekend.
"We have boxes and boxes of books about cars, that were donated by a person who was a car journalist. These books are pristine, they are works of art. Lots of gardening books because gardening season is almost upon us, as well as fiction and local histories."
Christine Harapiak says proceeds from the book sale will go towards supporting Rotary youth initiatives.
"This year, we have had great success finding candidates to go to different Rotary adventures. We have seven students going out. And with every two dollars you spend help us have the funds to do that. We have two students going to model United Nations next weekend, one student going to Adventures in Citizenship in May, and four going to leadership camp."
There is also a special "Wine and Words" event planned for Friday night, where you can sample about a dozen different wines as well as appetizers while shopping for books.
Tickets for that event are $40 and must be pruchased in advance at either the DauphinLiquor Mart or through any member of the Rotary club.
