July 3, 1991 Mr. John Giovati, Vice-Principal Mira Costa High School 701 South Peck Avenue Manhattan Beach, CA 90266 Dear Mr. Giovati: May we extend a word of appreciation and thanks for the three young students from Mira Costa who assisted us at our June 8th Friends of the Library Book Sale. They included Brandi Bourgon, Jennette (last name not known), and a third student whose name we did not obtain. They arrived on time, helped set up the books, and aided us throughout the sale. I appreciate your efforts, Mr. Giovati, in passing word of our need to the school's Service Clubs. We realize that our sale was near the end of the semester and that other students may have been committed in other directions. In the future, we'd like to call upon both Mira Costa and Redondo Hi for assistance. Our next scheduled sales are on September 7 and December 7. Our very successful June Book Sale grossed a dollar figure exceeding any of our previous sales over the past twenty years. As always, the greater portion of the receipts from this sale will go directly to the Hermosa Beach Library. This provides new books, books-on-tape, videos, and subscriptions, plus funds for children's programs and special needs. I am enclosing a brochure which gives the history of the library and of the Hermosa Beach Friends of the Library. The brochure may give you more insight to our interests and goals. Again, many thanks. Very truly yours, John T. Hales President JTH:bsd Enclosure
