Tavistock’s Scotiabank is once again inviting area residents to stock up on reading material and puzzles while supporting a local cause through its annual book and puzzle sale.

Senior customer experience associate Nichelle Horst was setting up the display at the Tavistock branch last week and is encouraging the community to stop in and browse. Books and puzzles are available for $5 each, with all proceeds going to the Tavistock Agricultural Society in support of the annual fall fair.

Residents are also welcome to donate gently used books and complete puzzles they no longer need, giving others the opportunity to enjoy them during the winter months while staying warm indoors.

Now in its fifth year, the sale has become a popular seasonal fundraiser and runs until March 26. Horst hopes residents will drop by, find something to enjoy and help support one of Tavistock’s longstanding community organizations.
