Connells Maple Lee Flowers & Gifts will kick off its annual “Bouquets for Books” event with a Connells Maple Lee Kids Club event on Nov. 3.
The price of admission: a new children’s book.
In return, children ages 5 to 12 will have the opportunity to make a fall arrangement like the one pictured here.
Time slots are available at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. Nov. 3.
Registration is required by calling one of our three Columbus-area stores: 2408 E. Main St. (Route 40), Bexley, 614-237-8653; 2033 Stringtown Road, Grove City, 614-539-4000; and 8573 Owenfield Drive, Powell, 740-548-4082.
This year’s Bouquets for Books runs Nov. 2-10. We’re collecting new children’s books at each of our stores to benefit Bexley Public Library, Delaware County District Library and Southwest Public Libraries.
For each book, donors will receive a free bouquet, up to three per family per visit, while supplies last. Used books will not be accepted.
