The third Run For Reading sponsored by the Friends of the St. Louis Public Library, slated for 6:15 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 19, offers participants exercise plus a bonus: a first-hand look at more than 30,000 books for sale.
The Run, a 5-kilometer event registered with the St. Louis Track Club and managed by professional race producers, will begin and end in front of Central Library, 1301 Olive. Participants in Run For Reading will be admitted free of charge to the preview of the Library’s first Book Sale, scheduled for the same evening. More than 30,000 books will be on sale, with proceeds going to the Library’s collections development budget. Admission to the preview for those not participating in the Run For Reading is $5. Run registration is $8 on or before Sept. 13 and $10 after Sept. 13.
To request a registration form, call 539-0343. Participants will include employees of local companies running as corporate teams as well as other interested individuals.
In addition to individual winners, prizes will also go to the largest participating corporate teams.
The preview for the Book Sale, the Library’s first, is scheduled from 5 to 9 p.m. Sept. 19 on the West Terrace of Central Library.
The Friends of the St. Louis Public Library is a non-profit organization whose mission is to promote and support the Library.
